Analyzer description& featuresArt no Article name

1400061 Exigo, 17 parameters

1400076 Exigo eos, 19 parameters

Analysis profi lesExigo comes with pre-installed animal analysis profi les and the possiblity to develop your own species profi les. Pre-installed: Dog, Cat, Horse, Cow, Ferret, Rabbit, Sheep, Rat, Mouse, Pig, New World Camel and Goat. New profi les for other species are available as product updates. Up to 20 animal profi les can be used in the instrument at the same time.

Available parameters Using impedance method: -WBC, LYMa, LYM%, MONOa, MONO%, GRANa, GRAN%-NEUTa*, NEUT%*, EOSa*, EOS%*-RBC, MCV, -PLT, MPV

Using photometric method (cyanide free):-HGB Calculated parameters-HCT, MCH, MCHC, RDWa, RDW%

* Available on Exigo eos only

Operation modesOpen tubes with EDTA blood.EDTA coated 20μl micro capillaries.

Advanced WBC diff methodA WBC diff erential from animal blood is one of the more diffi cult parameters to measure. By using an advanced analysis algo-rithm, Exigo takes into consideration both the actual measured cell compositions as well as what is expected form the ana-lyzed species, when performing the analysis. Every profi le uses a dynamic approach on how to analyze the sample for the most accurate result.

Hematological guidelines by ExigoSamples considered as pathological will be fl agged by the system and will give a clear recommended action for further analysis of the sample.

Recommended cleanersExigo should be cleaned periodically to avoid build up of proteins or bacterial growth inside the system. Use only original cleaners. Other cleaners may damage the interior of the system.

1504111 Boule Cleaning KitUsed for periodic maintenance.

On-board clot prevention systemAnimal blood specimens have a tendency to cause clots and blockages in cell-counter analysis systems. Therefore Exigo is equipped with on-board cleaner, automatically keeping the system clean.

ReagentsExigo should only be used with its original reagents. All rea-gents are non-toxic and cyanide-free.

System Verifi cationEvery veterinarian should be able to trust and depend upon their analyzer, which is why a full QC system has been designed into the Exigo software. And, by using barcodes for handling and registering the controls and their assay values, it is simple to use, eff ortless and 100% secure.

Control samplesControl samples should be used on a frequent (preferably daily) basis to verify the systems operation. Using the system Control frequently gives clear and quality proof of the system’s perfor-mance, which can easily be monitored through the built-in QC program.
