Specific uses of QBC Centrifugal Haematology & Blood Parasite Detection System

Faster and more accurate detection of malarial parasite in capillary and venous blood.

Species identification is easy, fast and accurate.

Detection of filaria in blood.

In addition to its unique feature for detection of malaria and filaria, this system converts any laboratory conventional microscope into a lower-cost fluorescent microscope.

The QBC Paralens (affordable fluorescent attachment) can perform a greater variety of tests, including chlamydia, ANA, PCP, CMV, etc.

Acid-fast baccili in sputum, urine, CSF using auromine 'O', rodamine 'B' stain.

Quick and accurate blood cell count with two-part differential count.

Machine gives very accurate platelet count for monitoring dengue patients.

The QBC centrifugal haematology system consists of computerised version of Dr Maxwell Wintrobe's Clinical Haematology (eighth edition) and provides a haematology diagnostics reminder.

Haematology diagnostics reminder is clinical interpretation of the results obtained on the haematology reader.

Haematology reader is sturdy, with no liquid handling or moving parts. Machine is easily movable and can be carried from one place to another. (Could be used for field study).

No daily cleaning necessary.

Ease and simplicity of operation means any laboratory staffer can operate the system.
