PROCLEIX® TIGRIS® System

NAT has never been more automated

  • Barcode scanners, robotic arms, liquid-level sensors and dispensers work to automate and verify every procedure
    • Minimizes hands-on time for increased efficiency
    • Reduces risk of contamination
    • Ensures each step is consistently reproduced

High throughput processing boosts productivity

  • The PROCLEIX® TIGRIS® System handles the demands of high-volume testing on a 24-hour basis, reducing the turn-around time for results.
    • Allows you to load individual donor and pooled blood samples simultaneously, without impacting workflow
    • Allows you to process samples continuously, without batching
  • Your lab will enjoy a higher level of productivity, with optimal throughput:
    • 500 tubes in less than nine hours of instrument time
    • 1000 tubes in less than 14 hours of instrument time

Built-in process controls help to ensure cGMP compliance

  • Fully integrated process controls monitor every task and protect the integrity of every sample so you can have confidence in your results. Built-in controls also help to ensure greater cGMP compliance.
    • Verifies every step of every procedure for greater reproducibility and confidence in results
    • Provides positive sample identification tracking
    • Automatically tracks:
      • Inventory of onboard reagents
      • Lot numbers and expiration dates
      • Inventory of onboard disposables
      • Required maintenance
      • Worklist completion
    • Alerts operator when more disposables are needed
    • Ensures correct placement of reagents, calibrators and controls
    • Senses liquid level and correct volume
    • Confirms reagent dispense accuracy
    • Detects inaccurate reagent addition (bubbles, foam, evaporation)
    • Checks for presence of clots in sample tubes

Confidence in results

  • You can have confidence in your results because everything about the system is designed to deliver at the highest level.
    • Built-in process controls verify the performance of every step and help ensure the integrity of every sample
    • Closed, single-instrument system reduces risk of contamination
    • Full automation reduces opportunity for operator and transcription error
