Helena Laboratories 220V 0.5A 50Hz Protofuor-Z G2006000

Helena Laboratories ProtoFluor-Z Analyzer

The Helena Laboratories ProtoFluor-Z Analyzer is a specialized front-face fluorometer designed for the precise measurement of zinc protoporphyrin (ZPP) levels in whole blood samples. This diagnostic tool is essential for assessing iron deficiency erythropoiesis, providing valuable insights into a patient’s iron status.

Key Features

• Simple Operation: Users can easily insert the sample holder containing a blood sample into the instrument and press the measure button. The ZPP value is promptly displayed on the LED screen.
• Multiple Measurement Units: The analyzer offers results in various units, including μmol ZPP/mol heme (ratio of ZPP to heme), μg/dL whole blood at a 42% hematocrit, or μg/dL whole blood at a 35% hematocrit.
• Efficient Testing: Requiring only a single drop of whole blood, the ProtoFluor-Z delivers results in seconds, making it an ideal choice for rapid screening.
• Comprehensive Reagent Kit: The ProtoFluor Reagent Kit includes ProtoFluor Reagent, ProtoFluor Coverslips, and ProtoFluor Calibrators (both Low and High). These components ensure accurate calibration and reliable performance.

Technical Specifications

• Measurement Range: 0 to 600 μmol ZPP/mol heme; 0 to 270 μg/dL.
• Input Power: 220V, 50/60 Hz.
• Dimensions: 7.5″ H x 11.5″ W x 11.25″ D (19 x 29.5 x 28.6 cm).
• Weight: 12.6 lb (5.7 kg).
• Operating Environment: 15 to 30°C (59 to 86°F).

Applications

The ProtoFluor-Z Analyzer is invaluable in various medical settings, including:

• General Laboratory Diagnostics: Assessing iron status in patients.
• Nutritional Monitoring: Evaluating iron levels in individuals at risk of deficiency.
• Specialized Fields: Utilized in blood banking, sports medicine, obstetrics, and pediatrics where iron status is a particular concern.

With its user-friendly design and rapid, accurate results, the Helena Laboratories ProtoFluor-Z Analyzer stands as a reliable instrument for healthcare professionals monitoring and diagnosing iron-related conditions.
