Measure the pH and Electrolytes from Body Fluids Micro Samples

Horiba LAQUAtwin meters can be used to assess quickly and easily the pH and electrolytes such as Potassium, Calcium and Sodium in blood, saliva, urine, plasma or sweat to ensure body concentrations are maintained within an acceptable range.

In various clinical applications, the electrolytes (K +, Ca2 + and Na +) and pH are parameters which should be routinely monitored for excess or deficiency in patients.

Usually, after samples are collected and sent to medical laboratory it can take a few days for the results to be available for patients and medical staff.

It is now possible to directly measure these parameters in body fluids from reduced volume thanks to Horiba LAQUAtwin testers.

These screening diagnostic tools are useful when it is necessary to obtain rapid analysis. In addition, these testers can immediately inform an individual or medical staffs about a patient condition without having to wait for the lab results and thus potentially reduce the time spent in the hospital or could help medical professionals to make quicker decisions.

Horiba LAQUAtwin range can measure samples as small as a drop of blood or other body fluid (minimum volume required is 0.1 ml) through flat ion selective electrode. This unique technology provides high accuracy and robust correlation with laboratory analysis.

The LAQUAtwin testers are easy to operate; the user simply has to place a drop of sample onto the sensor to get reliable and accurate results in seconds.

The LAQUAtwin testers can be calibrated in two points, the replaceable measuring cell allows for up to 1500 measurements.
