The MININEPHplus™ is a small, stylish semi-automated nephelometer. It is easy to use and enables laboratories to offer a cost efficient service for lower volume specialist protein assays.
Freelite® serum free light chain assays
- The only semi-automated nephelometer able to run Freelite®
- Automatic antigen excess check for Freelite® assay
Simple to use with on-screen instructions for running assays
- Interface is available in six different languages which are displayed on the easy to view back-lit LCD display.
Heated Integral Electronic Pipette
- Ergonomic pipette requires no volume input further increasing the simplicity of the system.
Fail safe assay start mechanism
- The assay starts when the pipette is activated, reducing the chance of false starts due to reagent sensing errors, thus saving time and reagents whilst increasing confidence in results.
Automatic assay blanking & mixing
- Increases the accuracy and precision of results.
Hand held barcode reader
- Eliminates transcription errors and speeds up input of sample identification.
MININEPHplus™ Analyser & kits manufactured by Binding Site
- Binding Site supplies everything you need to run the MININEPHplus™. The systems, assays and results are developed, optimised and validated together, ensuring quality assays and results.
User prepared chemistries
- Also ideal for research laboratories; user prepared chemistries allows the user to develop new assays.
