New EC 90 Electrolyte Analyzer

Erba Mannheim Launches Innovative Electrolyte Analyser with Maintenance-Free Electrodes at the Medica trade fair 2019 in Frankfurt Germany. #MEDICA2019 Many laboratories experience difficulties when using ion-selective electrode (ISE) analysers with traditional electrodes, as the electrodes must be replaced periodically. Failing electrodes can give erroneous results, interrupt workflows and are expensive to replace. To address this problem, Erba Mannheim is launching the EC90, a new electrolyte analyser with maintenance-free electrodes in an all-in-one sensor cartridge, aimed at labs of all sizes. The EC 90 directly measures Na+, Cl-, K+ and Ca2+ from whole blood, plasma, serum and pre-diluted urine using a sensor incorporating thick film technology.
