ChemWell® is a fully automated analyzer capable of running both EIAs and general chemistries in standard microwells.

Awareness Technology, Inc. is proud to announce the release of the updated Rev 6.0 Software. Currently it is available for biochemistries ONLY, but the EIA capable version is nearing completion as well. (for ChemWells with microplate washers, please find out about Rev 5.11. This software allows you to run the EIA's). Some of the features of the new Rev 6.0 software are:

  • Continous Loading - Instead of collecting a batch of specimens for a run, tests and samples can now be run on demand, even while other tests are running.
  • Calibrators and Controls can be run at any time and independently of tests, allowing you to update stored curves and validate tests as required. If tests associated with the newly loaded calibrator were already running, the sample concentrations for that test will be automatically adjusted for the new curve.
  • Results for individual samples can be accepted or re-run for verification, simply by clicking a button. You will no longer have to setup a new job or reposition sample cups when re-testing.
  • Sample and Reagent positions can be moved around using the Windows® "drag and drop" feature.
  • Assay programming has been greatly simplified.
  • Reports format easier to modify.
  • Intuitive new interface.

ChemWell® is a completely open system that is easy to program. Set up assays, routine jobs, quality control, panels, and even index calculations to suit your laboratory. With a completely open system you can program additional wash volume, increase the number of washes, or even direct the probe to pick up and dispense a probe cleaning solution after each specimen. And it is entirely password protected.

Precise pipetting of low volume specimens, elimination of carryover, and careful control of temperature are all essential for reliable results. ChemWell® can make pre-dilutions, however, this is often not necessary since a high level of precision is achieved even with a 2uL sample. ChemWell® can process EIA at ambient temperature or 37C. An incubator is provided for biochemistry wells to provide precise kinetic reactions. The probe is also temperature controlled to deliver 37C reagents.

RCA - Reagent Cooling Accessory now available for ChemWell®. Protects reagents from ambient heat. The removable racks can be refrigerated, pre-loaded, and ready for the next use.

ChemWell® is designed to maximize dependability, versatility, and economy.

ChemWell® uses standard, off-the-shelf microwells for all reactions. Performing biochemistry assays in microwells offers many advantages such as increased throughput and decreased cost per test. Uncoated microwells make low volume sample cups for biochemistry. They can also be washed for re-use. ChemWell® reads vertically using 4 optical channels and 8 wavelengths.

 

Handles up to 27 reagents, 96 samples.

 

Probe washes inside and out

 

Washes 8 wells at once

 

ChemWell® is truly 2 instruments in 1!

Set up a full or partial plate of EIA's and program ChemWell® to automatically make dilutions, dispense reagents, incubate, washes, read, and prepare final reports. You can also program ChemWell® as either a batch analyzer or a continuous loading random-access analyzer for performing clinical biochemistry tests.

Here are more features that you can expect with ChemWell®:

  • 200 tests per hour
  • No carry-over
  • Liquid sensing probe tip
  • 8-well wash head
  • Level-sensing wash, rinse, and waste bottles
  • LIS, STAT
  • QC tracking
  • Self-monitoring
  • Reflex testing
  • Reaction Volume <250uL
  • No custom disposables
  • IAD filters
  • Creates automatic service reports
  • Edit standard curves
  • self-monitoring mechanics and optics

All of this and more in one instrument, the ChemWell®.
