The Neonatal Biotinidase Screening Assay is an enzymatic assay for the quantitative determination of biotinidase activity in neonates using blood spot samples dried on Whatman S&S 903 filter collection paper. A non-invasive sampling method is used where specimens are collected by applying a few drops of blood freshly drawn from the infant’s heel with a lancet onto specially manufactured absorbent specimen collection (filter) paper. This method has many advantages: short collection time, low invasiveness, reduction of sample volume and ease of sample storage. It allows quantitative results to minimize the needs of a confirmatory test. Convenient transport and good stability of the samples and ready to use reagents are assured.

The BC-5150 5-part hematology analyser is offered as a compact solution for clinical labs, especially those with limited spare space. Its compact footprint is a result of innovative technology improvements, including miniaturized semi-conductor laser source, highly integrated electronic boards and optimized liquid handling systems. The tri-angle laser scatter is the key technology used on BC-5150, enabling better 5-part WBC differentiation even on samples with high eosinophils. The instrument has very user-friendly software and hardware. With a 10.4-inch TFT full-colour touch screen, the need for an external PC is practically eliminated. The BC-5150 inherits its convenient and proven powerful software design from the BC-6800 & BC-3600 platforms, specifically modified for easier handling in small sized labs. Four USB ports located on the left side allow convenient data transmission as well as connections to printers, keyboard, mouse, barcode scanner, etc. The BC-5150 has 2 test modes for capillary blood sample, capillary whole blood mode and pre-diluted mode. In the capillary whole blood mode, the user can aspirate capillary blood sample directly through the sample probe. In order to provide an economical solution for labs, the liquid handling system minimizes reagent consumption during sample testing, start up and shut down procedures.
