HELIOS

Fully automated IFA Processing + Reading

HELIOS is a revolutionary system which automatically carries out the complete pipetting and the selections of IFA (immune fluorescence) tests.

It is the first and only system which takes over this process completely from beginning till the end. Compared with the manual procedure, HELIOS counts an absolute proof control to its signs beside an uncomplicated use and a maximum saving of time.

Three needles
-> speeds up the process, ensures timing per well, prevents slidings drying out.

IFA Processor
-> is based on the HELMED Platform and capable of performing all IFA process steps automatically.

Slide Barcode Reader
-> provides slide traceability. AESKUSLIDES and barcoded e.g. type, lot, etc. and a unique serial number, ensuring front end traceability and compliance with lab accreditation.

Sample barcode reader
-> ensures sample traceability and eliminates time and error.

New Multi-Rack
-> gives high flexibility, accepts most tubes.

Built-in LED microscope, incorporating NIKON based optics
-> is complemented by the AESKU engineered motorized mount ensuring both accuracy and speed.
The camera performs high tech autofocus algorithms storing multiple images per well.

HELIOS provides a revolutionary immunofluorescence platform incorporating many benefits in a single machine, including:

• full traceability
• no darkroom needed
• slide processing and reading
• powerful integrated image pre-classification tool
• standardization of IFA
• homogeneous working protocol
• resource optimization
• increased throughput
• saves both time and money
• simple implementation lab routine
