Benefits

NAT has never been more automated

Barcode scanners, robotic arms, liquid-level sensors and dispensers work to automate and verify every procedure.

• Minimizes hands-on time for increased efficiency
• Reduces risk of contamination
• Ensures each step is consistently reproduced

 

High throughput processing boosts productivity

• The PROCLEIX^® TIGRIS^® System handles the demands of high-volume testing on a 24-hour basis, reducing the turn-around time for results.
  • Allows you to load individual donor and pooled blood samples simultaneously, without impacting workflow
  • Allows you to process samples continuously, without batching
• Your lab will enjoy a higher level of productivity, with optimal throughput:
  • 500 tubes in less than nine hours of instrument time
  • 1000 tubes in less than 14 hours of instrument time

 

Built-in process controls help to ensure cGMP compliance

Fully integrated process controls monitor every task and protect the integrity of every sample so you can have confidence in your results. Built-in controls also help to ensure greater cGMP compliance.

• Verifies every step of every procedure for greater reproducibility and confidence in results
• Provides positive sample identification tracking
• Automatically tracks
  • Inventory of onboard reagents
  • Lot numbers and expiration dates
  • Inventory of onboard disposables
  • Required maintenance
  • Worklist completion
• Alerts operator when more disposables are needed
• Ensures correct placement of reagents, calibrators and controls
• Senses liquid level and correct volume
• Confirms reagent dispense accuracy
• Detects inaccurate reagent addition (bubbles, foam, evaporation)
• Checks for presence of clots in sample tubes

 

Confidence in results

You can have confidence in your results because everything about the system is designed to deliver at the highest level.

• Built-in process controls verify the performance of every step and help ensure the integrity of every sample
• Closed, single-instrument system reduces risk of contamination
• Full automation reduces opportunity for operator and transcription error

 

Information on demand

The PROCLEIX TIGRIS System generates a wide variety of reports that you can view online or print. You can also export reports to middleware, such as PROCLEIX^® NAT TRACKER^® Software or to a laboratory information system.

• Assay Reagent Status Reports
• Activity Logs
• Control Reports
• Maintenance Logs
• Master Lot Reports
• Assay Results Reports
• Discriminatory Results Reports
• Temperature Check Reports
