MEDICA® Water purification systems for clinical diagnostics

Water is vital to many different stages of the clinical analyzer process MEDICA “Water is all we do. We know water.” Purified water is used as a zero/baseline standard in clinical chemistry tests and if the levels of certain ions (e.g. Ca2+, Mg2+, 3PO4 , HCO3) are not optimal then this will affect the calibration stability and reduce assay sensitivity. Likewise, bacterial by-products, most notably alkaline phosphatase, can interfere with enzymebased immunoassays. We understand it is critical for clinical analyzers to receive a constant and reliable supply of compliant water to attain...

“The high purity solution for single analyzers” MEDICA-R and MEDICA-D Reliable and economical supply for low usage The MEDICA solution for overcoming your water purification challenges Designed to supply CLRW grade water to a single analyzer When high purity water is required in low volumes for a single analyzer, the MEDICA-R and -D offer a range of systems at an undemanding cost of ownership. MEDICA Solution Common applications: Operating with and adhering to a A pre-installation site survey provides realistic information on the cost of ownership resulting in no surprises. Robust...

MEDICA-R The low-usage option for tap water feed A compact, dedicated unit providing CLRW grade water, the MEDICA-R is an ideal choice for use with a single chemistry or immunoassay clinical analyzer. Two models are available providing either 7 or 15 liters/hr, and facilitating an instantaneous demand of up to 1.8 liters/min from tap water feed. MEDICA-D Low-usage option to meet dissolved oxygen specification The MEDICA-D shares the same features as the MEDICA-R, providing CLRW grade water for single clinical analyzers. In addition, the MEDICA-D incorporates a deaeration membrane, providing...
