How does it work?
AFIAS-1 and AFIAS-6 (AFIAS-automated fluorescent immunoassay system) are automatic immunoassay systems that measures the concentration of a targeted analyte in a sample, using quantitative or semi-quantitative methods using blood, urine, and other samples.
The AFIAS reader is easy to carry and has a simple structure. Also, AFIAS uses all-in-one cartridges which automates the entire procedures from sample preparation to test when user loads sample only.
The AFIAS-1 analyzer has a single channel so it is optimized for small and mid-sized hospitals (or clinics) testing up to six COVID-19 Ab samples per hour while the AFIAS-6 comes with six channels with the capacity to process up to 36 samples per hour. For some tests, such as COVID-19, TSH, CRP, PCT, and HbA1c, a quantitative test can be performed using a small sample (10uL or 50uL) of whole blood from a finger or heel using an applicable C-tip (capillary tip).
