The Tosoh Bioscience AIA 360: a compact immunoassay analyser for fast and accurate results
The Tosoh Bioscience AIA 360 is an automated enzyme immunoassay analyser that combines compactness, efficiency and user-friendliness to meet the needs of modern laboratories. Designed to adapt to a variety of environments, it is suitable for small hospitals, specialised laboratories or as a backup system for larger capacity analysers. Its compact design (400 x 400 x 520 mm and weighing 29 kg) allows for easy installation, even in confined spaces, while offering high-level performance.
With a processing capacity of 36 tests per hour, the AIA 360 ensures an optimised workflow. It is capable of providing a STAT result in approximately 20 minutes, enabling rapid care for patients requiring urgent intervention. Its sample carousel can hold up to 25 samples and 25 test cups simultaneously. In addition, random access and the ability to add samples and tests during analysis ensure maximum flexibility in day-to-day laboratory management.
The AIA 360's user interface features an intuitive touchscreen that makes it easy to navigate and configure tests. Users can monitor sample and test progress in real time, ensuring complete control over the process. The system is also compatible with laboratory information systems (LIS), enabling seamless data integration and efficient results management.
Tosoh's unique single-dose test cup technology offers exceptional convenience. These reagents, which require no on-board refrigeration, pre-mixing or pre-measuring, reduce errors and minimise waste, while optimising costs. The reagents have a long shelf life, with a calibration curve stability of 90 days for most analyses.
Tosoh AIA 360 stands out for its accuracy and reliability, thanks to detection based on an LED photometer and fluorescent immunoenzyme technology. These features make it an ideal solution for a wide range of tests, including cardiac, thyroid, reproductive, tumour, metabolic and many others.
