The Freedom Evo Clinical is Tecan's 98/79/EC IVD Directive-compliant automated platform for clinical diagnostics applications and is available in three different sizes (100, 150 and 200cm)
Tecan's Freedom Evo Clinical liquid handling workstation is now available with the Te-PoolSafe option and the pressure monitored pipetting (PMP) tool, bringing a new level of safety and quality assurance to automated blood pooling laboratories.
For the first time, precise monitoring of both the dispensed volume and quality of each pipetted sample can be simultaneously performed, providing greater process security backed up with complete sample traceability.
Freedom Evo Clinical's user-friendly Freedom Evoware sample oriented software provides complete control of the integrated Te-PoolSafe and PMP options.
The Te-PoolSafe allows a fast and sensitive liquid arrival check by monitoring each pipetting step and comparing every single dispense made with the expected volumes.
The PMP tool analyses pipetting quality by detecting faults such as clots, air aspiration, non-dispensed samples or system leakage; faults are detected by comparing recorded and real-time simulated pipetting pressure signals.
The pressure simulation relies on fluidics, user-defined parameters (such as sample type and pipetting volume) and dynamic fitting of sample type and system-specific variations (eg, in sample viscosity or system liquid properties).
Tecan's extensive prevalidation work of different liquid classes allows quick and easy PMP installation and application set-up.
