Laboratories, ranging from small point-of-care clinics to high-throughput clinical labs use clinical chemistry analyzers to analyze samples such as blood serum, plasma, and urine. According to a recent market report by Axiom MRC, the global clinical chemistry market is experiencing growth due to the ongoing research and developments and introduction of new products in the market.
Your choice of chemical analyzer should depend on the types of tests you wish to run and the throughput you require. Other factors include sample handling, degree of automation, data management, operating costs, footprint, and whether the machine can handle micro volume samples. Before choosing a model, make sure you know the top chemistry analyzer models currently available in the market.
Professional medical lab equipment suppliers offer a wide range of chemistry analyzers and their accessories that promote individualized care and accurate outcomes.
