VITROS® MicroWell Technology

                                                             VITROS® MicroWell Technology  

MicroWell technology uses a unique coating process to increase binding capacities over typical passive binding technologies. Proprietary Enhanced Chemiluminescent detection provides wide dynamic ranges and exceptional immunoassay precision and accuracy across disease states. That means fewer unnecessary dilutions, repeats and redraws, which is good for your laboratory and even better for patients. MicroWell Technology:

    Enables excellent assay sensitivity and precision

    Allows small sample volumes

    Minimizes waste with a small MicroWell

     Features Enhanced Chemiluminescence Detection Technology that delivers1,2:

    - Improved signal (light) output, even at low analyte concentrations, for better detection*

    - Excellent sensitivity and precision*

    - Broad dynamic range.*

 

* Compared to direct and other indirect chemiluminescence methods
