The Biochrom WPA CO7000 is a portable colorimeter designed for use by doctors and medical technologists in small and medium sized clinics. The instrument has been designed as an “open” system so that test kits for clinical and medical applications from virtually any supplier can be used. Examples of routine assays that can be measured in serum and plasma include Albumin, Cholesterol, Glucose, Creatinine, Total Protein, Hemoglobin, Urea and those in cerebrospinal fluid include Glucose and Total Protein. The samples can be measured in either standard 10mm pathlength cuvettes (a minimum of 400µl is required) or in 10/12/16mm diameter test tubes (adapters are included with the instrument).
