BFT II AnalyzerHigh-performance analyzer for the low-volume lab

BFT II Analyzer

The BFT II Analyzer combines the advantages of mechanical and photo-optical clot-detecting principles by employing a unique turbodensitometric detection device. The semi-automated, dual-channel coagulometer is ideal for low-volume laboratories performing routine coagulation tests.

Light protection cap reduces the risk of user errors by keeping the pipetting channel closed unless a cuvette has been inserted
Pre-defined assays with stored reference curves
Automatic calculation of PT in sec, % of norm, INR, Fibrinogen in mg/dL or g/L
Dual measuring channels allow for simultaneous determinations
Half-volume and single cuvette testing require minimal sample volume
Built-in thermal printer for consolidated result handling

Features & Benefits

The BFT II Analyzer is a dual-channel coagulometer designed for the lowest volume lab. It combines the advantages of mechanical and photo-optical clot detecting principles.

Total efficiency

Stores reference curves
Automatic result calculation, e.g., PT in sec, % of norm/ PR/ INR, Fibrinogen in mg/dL or g/L
Temperature controlled incubation block for reagents and samples
Sample mixing during measurement

Ease-of-use

Light protection cap reduces the risk of user errors by keeping the pipetting channel closed unless a cuvette has been inserted
Built-in timer for incubation
Membrane keypad for easy handling of test processing
Pre-programmed methods

Labor and cost savings

Half-volume and single cuvette testing require minimal sample volume
Memory function for reference curves
As a back-up analyzer, the BFT II provides data comparable to those obtained with other Siemens hemostasis analyzers
