SEAL Analytical - AQ1
Manufactured by SEAL Analytical
Automated Discrete Analyzer
Low cost flexible analyzer that uses the principle of Discrete Analysis. Each test occurs in a separate or discrete reaction vessel. The AQ1 is IDEAL for laboratories with smaller workloads requiring varied tests on different samples and when individual tests are needed immediately.
The AQ1 employs a robust robotic sampling arm working in conjunction with a stepper motor-driven syringe. The syringe is used for aspirating, dispensing and mixing accurate and precise quantities of sample and reagent into miniaturized test tubes, called reaction wells.
The Sample and reagents are incubated in the reaction wells for a pre-programmed time. A single aliquot is then transferred into the stop/flow Optical Quality Glass Cuvette. The absorbance of the reaction is read in our stationary optical bench to assure the best possible signal to noise ratio.
