General information on the instrument
The Sprinter XL is a system with a modular structure which allows the automatic
processing of IFA microscope slides and ELISA microplates, from sample
preparation to the final washing or measuring step.
The system is able to detect and identify sample barcodes.
An archiving function of the results is present and is managed with the
RepExplorer
program.
