Chlorochek® Chloridometer®
The perfect cystic fibrosis diagnostic companion. The ChloroChek® Chloridometer® is a coulometric titrator designed to determine chloride ion concentrations in sweat samples with just 10 microliters of sweat. It displays the concentration directly in mmol/L Cl-. The sweat sample is added to a buffer/stabilizer working solution.
Analysis of chloride in induced sweat sample
The Chlorochek Chloridometer is easy to use, and it is much more user-friendly than our very old Chloridometer that our hospital had used since the stone age. You do have to make sure that the electrodes are extremely clean, but if you do that, the analyzer is a snap to use. The on-site training session was also very helpful for our staff.

Analysis of chloride in induced sweat sample
This instrument is very easy to use. Keeping the electrodes clean is key to successful use. Training was very good. I never used our old chloridometer, but I was able to use the new ChloroChek without a problem. The instrument is a good value for the money in that there is minimal maintenance and the consumables are not ridiculously expensive.

Sweat chloride analysis for cystic fibrosis screening/Trikafta medication
Very easy to use and with very little tech training, highly reproduceable results. Also, takes up very little countertop space. The only drawback is the cleaning of the measurement electrode. It is sometimes very hard to get perfectly clean in order to even use it. You have to be VERY aggressive with the cleaning of the electrodes on the edge of a countertop with the silver polishing cloth. And sometimes it still will not condition. I've had to buy several extras to keep as new replacements. Other than that, once it is working, it is very easy to use.

Perform sweat chloride testing
Very easy to use and train techs. Good online teaching video. Takes up very little space and easy to maintain. The only drawback is the difficulty in keeping the measurement electrode completely clean and polished. These electrodes will fail conditioning and fail standard introduction if not vigorously scrubbed along the polishing cloth. But the technical specialist at ELITech was very helpful in troubleshooting this problem. Other than that, we are very happy with the product.
