The YSI Model 2700 SELECT Biochemistry Analyzer is a laboratory instrument intended for
use in research, food-processing and bioprocessing applications. THE MODEL 2700 SELECT
IS NOT FOR HUMAN MEDICAL DIAGNOSTIC USE OR FOR HUMAN
PERFORMANCE EVALUATION.
The Model 2700 SELECT offers precision and specificity comparable to more time consuming
and rigorous methods, but with greater speed, convenience and sensitivity. Many of the
conditions which interfere with refractometers, density meters and manual methods are of little
concern when using the Model 2700 SELECT. Measurements are virtually unaffected by
sample color, turbidity, density, viscosity, pH, volatility, specific gravity, temperature, index of
refraction, optical activity, or the presence of proteins or other biochemicals.
The Model 2700 SELECT can be set up to measure a number of different analytes, but
switching between them may entail some time and effort. Configured as a single channel unit,
the Model 2700 SELECT provides quick measurements of any one of the following analytes:
•
D-Glucose (Dextrose)
•
L-Lactate
•
Sucrose
•
Lactose
•
Ethanol
•
L-Glutamate
•
Choline
•
L-Glutamine
•
Methanol
•
Galactose*
•
Hydrogen Peroxide*
Configured as a dual channel unit, the Model 2700 SELECT provides quick, simultaneous
measurements of combinations of the following analytes:
•
Dextrose and L-Lactate
•
Dextrose and Sucrose
•
L-Glutamate and L-Glutamine
* YSI does not currently offer calibration standards for these analytes.
