VetScan VS2 Chemistry Analyzer Overview

Note: Be sure to become familiar with the VS2 before running samples.
The VetScan VS2 Chemistry Analyzer consists of a portable analyzer and
disposable single-use reagent rotors. Each reagent rotor contains all the
reagents needed to perform a profile of tests on a single sample.
The VetScan VS2 uses centrifugal and capillary forces to process heparin-
ized whole blood samples and distribute diluted plasma to the reaction
chambers (cuvettes) in the reagent rotor. Serum and heparinized plasma
samples are processed in a similar manner. The analyzer optically mea-
sures the chemical reactions and calculates analyte concentrations from
these measurements and from encoded calibration data contained on the
bar code ring.
Results are stored in memory, printed by the analyzer's internal printer, and can be communicated to
external computers for various types of data management.
