Erytra®

Erytra® is a fully automated instrument with a high processing capacity for performing pre-transfusion compatibility tests using the gel agglutination technique.

Erytra® combines Grifols' experience and technology with the advantages of the unique Grifols DG Gel® 8-column cards.

Erytra® is a walk-away autoanalyzer with self-organizing capacity that manages and executes all the necessary steps when performing blood typing techniques and investigation of unexpected antibodies:

• Positive identification of samples and reagents
• Maintenance of globular suspensions
• Dilution of samples
• Dispensing of samples and reagents
• Incubation and centrifugation of DG Gel® cards
• Reading and interpretation of results
• Report generation

High loading capacity

• Up to 400 DG Gel® cards. 3200 tests
• Maximum capacity: 96 samples, 54 reagents
• Optimization of space: random positioning of samples and reagents
• Easy loading of cards: directly from the packaging racks

Continuous working

• Full continuous loading with no interruptions
• 4 hours non-stop, stand-alone use
• Double entry spaces. 2 drawers for reagents, 4 drawers for samples and 4 drawers for cards
• Fully optimized work time
• Practical organization of the workload
• Synchronized management of programmed techniques

High throughput

• Unique 8-column format
• Combining Erytra® with DG Gel® cards allows maximum processing capacity. 800 tests/hour

Upright design
