The AP3600 instrument is designed for easy and efficient in vitro allergy testing using only a small amount of sample volume to measure allergen specific IgE concentration in human serum. The system is fully automated and requires only the initial setup performed by the laboratory technician: prepare the patient samples, load the samples into the AP3600 system, and load the required OPTIGEN pettes. Each pette contains up to 36 different allergens which are tested simultaneously. The entire process takes less than six hours.
The laboratory-friendly AP3600 is a fully automated system that works with OPTIGEN to offer several key benefits, including:
- High throughput – 3600 results per day (1,800 results per run in 5.5 hours)
- Simple Operation – Automatic pre-run check, no daily calibration
- Comprehensive pre-configured panels (Inhalant 36 & food 25)
- Small sample volume – only 0.7 ml/test for 36 allergens (20µl/allergen)
- Cost Savings and better inventory management – Competitive per-allergen cost
- Streamlined Inventory Management – 100 patient samples, 3,600 allergen tests require only the size of a shoe box, one single part number and one expiration date
