A scalable automation solution targeted at medium-volume laboratories is designed to save time and costs.

The new system, called Dimension Lynx, utilizes the design of the Dimension RxL Max analyzer of Dade Behring (Deerfield, IL, USA) and integrates a sample-management module to improve performance and productivity. The integration is achieved by using two Dimension systems and combining them with the sample-management module. The automation solution is also available with the combination of a Dimension analyzer and the Immulite 2000 or 2500 immunoassay system.

Dimension Lynx offers a number of advantages. These include smart sample management, true clot detection, sample integrity checks, sample sorting and mapping, and automated intelligent routing to eliminate the guesswork of technicians. A single operator interface serves the complete system and permits automatic add-on testing without operator intervention. In addition, the system offers consistency in processing on two instruments, improved turn-around time, and convenient decapping capability.

"The availability of an appropriate automation solution for medium-sized laboratories will be extremely valuable for workflow management,” said Rick Lee, senior vice president, marketing, Dade Behring. "In addition to its flexibility, the Dimension Lynx system provides on-board capacity to run 182 methods concurrently, providing the laboratory with increased productivity and performance.”
