Zenit G-Sight

Product catalog summary

Introduction
The document introduces the Zenit G-Sight systems by A. Menarini Diagnostics, designed for automated serological diagnosis of autoimmune diseases using indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) tests on human epithelial (HEp-2) cells. These systems aim to standardize and automate the evaluation of cell-based IIF assays, addressing the limitations of classic methods.

System Overview
The Zenit G-Sight systems include three models: Zenit G-Sight Classic, Zenit G-Sight Twice, and Zenit G-Sight AMiDot. All models share key hardware components and software, ensuring high accuracy in identifying ANA-positive sera. Each model caters to different laboratory needs, balancing cost, performance, and workload capacity.

Model Specifications

Zenit G-Sight Classic: Ideal for high-volume laboratories, it holds up to 8 slides and is cost-effective for routine use.
Zenit G-Sight Twice: An entry-level model with lower cost and reduced autonomy, holding up to 2 slides, suitable for moderate workloads.
Zenit G-Sight AMiDot: Combines IIF and micro-array technology, offering advanced capabilities for Ag typing after IIF screening.

Technical Features
All models feature a state-of-the-art automated fluorescence microscope, motorized scanning stage, and a highly sensitive CCD camera. The innovative software manages the experimental workflow, ensuring optimal image capture and processing. The systems can discriminate between positive/negative samples, measure fluorescence intensity, and classify fluorescence patterns.

Environmental and Physical Specifications

Operating temperature: 0-40 °C, humidity up to 85% RH without condensation.
Storage temperature: -20 to 60 °C, humidity up to 90% RH without condensation.
Power supply: AC 110-120 V or 220-240 V, 50-60 Hz.
Dimensions and weight vary by model, with the Classic and AMiDot models being larger and heavier than the Twice model.

Conclusion
The Zenit G-Sight systems provide a comprehensive solution for the automated diagnosis of autoimmune diseases, offering flexibility and high-quality standards across different laboratory settings.

Zenit G-Sight Systems: technology The screening for anti-nuclear antibodies (ANAs) performed on human epithelial (HEp-2) cells by indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) tests is the gold standard method in the diagnostic approach to systemic rheumatic disorders recommended by both the European and the American guidelines. The need for standardized and reproducible evaluation of cell-based IIF assays that overcome the disadvantages of classic assay have guided autoimmunity laboratories on the road to automation.

Zenit G-Sight Systems: characteristics Zenit G-Sight Twice: High performance, moderate cost, limited analytic autonomy Conceived as an entry-level instrument for its relatively low cost (30-35% less than Zenit G-Sight Classic), Zenit G-Sight Twice has the same performance of the other instruments but less autonomy for the analysis: the motorized scan stage holds 2 slides. In case of high workload, the operator simply needs to load the slides more frequently. Zenit G-Sight Classic*: Perfect for the daily routine with large sample numbers Zenit G-Sight Classic is the prototype among the Zenit G-Sight...
