40 Parham Drive, Eastleigh, Hampshire, SO50 4NU, UK Tel: 023 8048 3000 | Email: marketing@alphalabs.co.uk Web: www.alphalabs.co.uk/FIT Registered in England 1215816 Focus on FIT A FIT System for Any Laboratory The HM-JACKarc is a high throughput, fully automated, compact bench top analyser that provides quantitative faecal haemoglobin (f-Hb) concentration results on a simple to use platform. It has a wide dynamic range from 7ng/ml to 400 ng/ml (ng/ml = µg Hb/g faeces), making it ideal for use in clinical settings for both asymptomatic screening and assessment of the symptomatic. The latex reagent is specific for human haemoglobin and is measured by spherical turbidimetry. Quantitative Faecal Immunochemical Tests (FIT) offer significant advantage over traditional guaiac based tests and qualitative FIT methods, both of which have subjective end points with varying cut off levels. The HM-JACKarc system is easy to set up and can be loaded with up to 80 samples at any one time. It can stand alone or be linked to the LIS, allowing flexible options for connectivity and full audit trail of results, QC and reagent lot numbers. Automated FIT Testing: Easy as 1-2-3! Advanced Sample Collection System ■ Easy to use sample device collects a consistent sample size across different faecal matter ■ Internal septum removes excess sample ■ <2mg of sample in 2ml of buffer (ng/ml = µg Hb / g faeces) ■ Tamper seal and window to confirm sample applied ■ Unique bar code number for the tube (lot no./expiry date/tube no.) ■ Collection buffer stabilises the faecal sample haemoglobin - 120 days at 4°C (refrigerated) - 14 days at 25°C (ambient temp) Fully Automated Instrument ■ Compact and light bench top unit with touchscreen interface ■ Uses Integrated Sphere Latex Turbidimetry to measure faecal haemoglobin concentration ■ Sensitivity: 7 ng/mL ■ Cut-off concentrations can be selected depending on requirements – Screening or Symptomatic Testing ■ No prozone effect up to 200,000 ng/mL ■ High speed performance: 200 samples/hour - Time to first result 5.6 minutes - Additional results every 18 seconds ■ Factory set Master curve with local 2 point recalibration - Calibrates system to local conditions and reagent combinations - Calibration weekly - System can store 2 calibration curves - Calibration of different lots of latex - Same lots with different calibrators Latex Reagent ■Provides a large concentration of capture antibodies ■Wide dynamic range ■7ng/ml to 400 ng/ml (ng/ml = µg Hb/g faeces) ■High Hook capacity > 200,000ng/ml ■Ensures no samples give a falsely lower result ■Drives reaction kinetics to end stage equilibrium quickly Scattered Light Sensor Integrated Sphere Turbidimetry (IST) LED Light Source Scattered Light Direct Light ∞ Direct Light Sensor Reaction Vessel To find out more visit www.alphalabs.co.uk/FIT Watch the HM-JACKarc in action at www.alphalabs.oc.uk/hmj-video or contact us for support in setting up your FIT Service
