Laboratory evaluation of the Du Pont "Dimension Clinical Chemistry System".

[摘要] We evaluated the analytical performance of the Du Pont Dimension Clinical Chemistry System to assess its suitability as a replacement for the Du Pont aca III, currently routinely used for analysis of pediatric, high-risk, and emergency specimens. Twenty-six analyses were studied. These generally fulfilled pre-set analytical goals for precision based on biological variation or "state of the art." Significant economies were achieved and we found the Dimension to be reliable, easy to operate, and simple to maintain. It also fulfilled safety requirements for analysis of specimens of high risk to laboratory staff.
