UriSed 3 PRO is a fully automated professional urine sediment analyzer from the Hungarian company 77 Elektronika. The device automates the "gold standard" of urinalysis—classical microscopy—using a patented combination of brightfield and phase-contrast visualization.
Key Features and Capabilities:
- Throughput: up to 150 tests per hour (up to 200 in Cascade mode with two modules).
- Optical System: combines brightfield and phase-contrast, allowing for better differentiation of hyaline casts, red blood cells, and yeast without staining the sample.
- Automatic Classification: recognizes up to 18 classes of sediment elements (RBCs, WBCs, bacteria, crystals, casts, etc.).
- Sample Preparation: built-in centrifuge (2000 rpm); testing is performed in disposable cuvettes, eliminating cross-contamination.
- Memory: stores up to 10,000 results, including high-resolution images (HPF-like) with zoom capability.
Performed Tests (Automatically Recognized Elements):
- Red Blood Cells (RBC), White Blood Cells (WBC), WBC Clumps (WBCc), Hyaline Casts (HYA), Pathological Casts (PAT), Squamous Epithelial Cells (EPI), Non-Squamous Epithelial Cells (NEC), Bacteria (rods, cocci) (BAC), Yeast (YEA), Crystals (calcium oxalate, uric acid, triple phosphates) (CRY), Mucus (MUC), Sperm (SPRM).
Integration and Interface:
-
Single Station: the device is often connected to the LabUMat 2 biochemical urine analyzer, forming a fully automated laboratory analysis system.
- Management: built-in barcode reader, intuitive menu, and integration with Laboratory Information Systems (LIS) via LIS2-A2 or HL7 protocols.
- Loading: simultaneous loading of up to 100 sample racks.
