Bilirubinometer - One Beam

Product catalog summary

Overview: The One Beam is a bilirubinometer developed by GINEVRI for precise measurement of bilirubin levels in newborns using a micro blood sample. It aids in treating newborn jaundice by providing accurate bilirubin levels, crucial for preventing kernicterus, a condition that can cause irreversible brain damage.

Key Features:

Simplicity of Use: Requires only a 60 µl blood sample, which is placed in a capillary tube and centrifuged for 5 minutes.
Disposable Capillary Tubes: Uses heparinated glass tubes, eliminating the need for expensive and fragile cuvettes.
Rapid Analysis: The device performs a photometric analysis using wavelengths of 455nm and 575nm to measure bilirubin and correct for haemoglobin interference.
Automatic Correction: The device automatically compensates for haemoglobin interference using an algorithmic calculation.

Technical Specifications:

Sample Type: Centrifuged blood
Volume: Less than 70 µl
Measurement Range: 4/30 mg/dl or 68/510 µmol/l
Measurement Type: Photometric
Resolution: +/- 0.1 mg/dl or +/- 0.1 µmol/l
Precision: +/- 1% (FS+ mis.)
Sensor: Silicon photo-diode
Optic Filter: 455 and 575 nm
Results Display: LCD, PC via RS232, optional printer
Weight: 2.0 Kg (2.3 Kg with printer)
Dimensions: 15 x 22 x 24 cm
Power Supply: 230 Vac - 50/60hz - 10/50W

Innovations: The One Beam uses a single optical beam for more stable, precise, and stronger signal readings. This system reduces errors and discrepancies by focusing on a single point in the capillary tube.

References: Developed with Roma Tor Vergata University and tested by the Fatebenefratelli General Hospital in Rome.

Consumables: Includes heparinated capillary tubes, sealing wax, and optional thermal paper for the printer.

One Beam The One Beam is a GINEVRI’s new concept bilirubinometer designed to give a precise measurement of the bilirubin serum level in newborns by using a simple micro sample of blood. Knowing and understanding the precise bilirubin level is very important and helps in the successful treatment of newborn jaundice, caused by the accumulation of the bilirubin in various tissues of the body, the skin being the most obvious (the classic skin color yellow in jaundice patients). The risk is that this accumulation of bilirubin could also involve the brain tissues, causing irreversible damage to the...
