DYNEX DS2

Description

The DYNEX DS2^® system is one of a kind – dynamic, precise and cost-effective processing systems. This breakthrough 2-plate ELISA processing system guarantees to change the game for laboratories looking to streamline their processes and save valuable resources. If you’re a time-strapped facility with high demands, the DS2^® is the solution you’re searching for. Designed to cut costs, save labor and enhance your speed, the DS2^® never compromises when it comes to unbeatable quality control.

• Fully automated open system
• Ability to bring in tests that are currently being sent out
• Automated sample distribution, incubation, reagent addition, washing and detection steps of assays as defined by the manufacturer. The lab can customize assay parameters, assay steps, OD read settings, result calculations, quality control checks and report formats with ease
• Automation, accuracy, immediacy and responsiveness are the must-haves of demanding physicians office labs and lower-throughput labs.
• Finding all this in a reliable, cost-effective and easy to use and maintain package might seem impossible. Not with the DS2
