Simplified workflow for special protein testing
Immunology
We recently received the analyzer in our immunology lab. It has a wide variety of tests that could be performed, including serum immunoglobulins and their subclasses, complement fractions. You can test for central nervous system disorders, renal function biomarkers and many others. The apparatus can perform up to 120 tests per hour, it works very quickly, meaning the reports take less time. Overall, it is a high-quality product and it should be an essential part of every modern lab.

Great user experience, very responsive costumer service.
IgG and IgG subclasses in Clinical Trials Studies
Optilite is our most recent purchase in the lab. In terms of ease of use, it's one of the best I have encountered so far. Technical support is also very responsive. Results are more reliable compared to other Nephelometry instruments.

I am happy to be able to carry out my work efficiently with quick results.
Free Light kappa Lambda
It produces results faster than previous equipment(Spaplus). The dilution process is performed on the equipment, making it easy for users to use.

Improve experimenter convenience and the reliability of results.
Instrument is used for clinical diagnostics of special proteins in human serum
When using the equipment, it is inconvenient because the operating program cannot be easily accessed and viewed until reexamination. In some cases, the inspection date does not appear when printing data, which can confuse users. Convenient when adding samples. I wish there was a holder that could cover the entire rack where the sample is placed. I think it would be more convenient if the racks attached to the equipment were used in a single row in the future. Having to lift the waste water tank to empty it can cause musculoskeletal disorders, so a connection to the waste water line is necessary. I hope the acceptance criteria for calibration are clearly given. The height of the equipment is high, making it inconvenient to place it on the laboratory table and conduct experiments. We hope that the review of antigen excess will be strengthened and the reliability of results will increase.

Using Optilite for IgG Subclass Testing - my wise decision.
Special Protein Analyzer
My lab has performed IgG subclass testing for a long time. In initial time, I used Mininepth from The Binding Site - a semi-automatic analyzer for the testing before moving to Optilite and I was convinced about its effectiveness absolutely. From now, I have used Optilite for more than 3 years and it can help the workflow in my lab fast, smooth and save time. Note that the analyzer fits your lab if your lab throughput is high. With my lab, at least 20 tests per day can help us keep the balance between the operating cost, reagent cost and profit of the testing. Analyzer: easy to use and maintain. Rarely meet an error regarding hardware and spare part. Reagent: stability time after opening a vial is 3 months, large measurement range. Cleansing chemicals are cheap and trivial.

Prozone effect and IgG subclass results
Instrument is used for clinical diagnostic of special protein in human serum
Although it is usefully used in the laboratory, issues such as the prozone effect occur occasionally. Also, feedback on the results of high IgG subclasses is needed.

Great results
Analyze metabolites in serum
High quality and reproducible results
Review Date: 13 Feb 2023 | Binding Site
Good analyser and software
Serum Protein
Easy to use. Good and stable performance. However, the freelite and hevylite assays need extra attention to correlate with clinical picture during interpretation.
