18 Introduction ŶIntended UseThe Samsung LABGEOPA20 provides quantitative in-vitro measurements of clinical chemistry analytes and immunological reactions in lithium-heparinized whole blood, plasma, or serum in a clinical or point-of-care setting. It is designed to use a disposable reagent disc which contains reagents and buers for a complete test. The Analyzer unit contains the Laser which is for controlling microuidics. UV LED is light source is for detection chemical reaction.For use in moderate complexity labs with whole blood, plasma or serum.If the Samsung LABGEOPA20 is used in any way other than described in this manual, the analyzer may not operate as intended, may produce inaccurate or no results, and may pose a safety harzard.Use only Samsung LABGEOPA20 reagent disc with the Samsung LABGEOPA20.
19Samsung LABGEO PA20    Introduction ŶIntroductionThe Samsung LABGEOPA20 is a fully integrated photometric device that can perform both clinical chemistry analyses and immunoassays simultaneously. Innovative laser-actuated microvalves together with the centrifugal microuidics makes the total process of plasma separation, metering, mixing, incubation, washing, and detection fully automatic.A lithium-heparinized whole blood, plasma, or serum sample of 450uL is applied directly to a disposable reagent disc and the disc is inserted into the analyzer by an operator. Each reagent disc is self-contained clear plastic with diameter of 12 cm and thickness of 0.8 cm, which consists of dierent kinds of reagents and buers.The entire process is activated once the operator touches the “Run” button on the display. The ‘self-test’ function is initiated, whereby the main power, main motor, laser motor, temperature IC, photometer, laser, heater and barcode reader are checked. The ‘self-test’ function is conducted automatically before each test or control run. This built-in self testing function minimizes maintenance costs. After inserting a reagent disc into a tray, the analyzer automatically detects the disc type and identies the clinical chemistry and immunoassay tests before performing the assays. The analysis is completed in about 12 to 25 minutes depending on the disc type.The results are displayed on the LCD screen along with the reference ranges, can be printed out by an internal thermal printer, and can be transferred to a laboratory information system and electronic medical record systems (LIS/EMR) via an Ethernet and wireless LAN ports. Data storage is up to 5,000 patient results and 3,000 control results in the instrument.The system provides user-friendly and easy interface for analysis that minimizes user manipulation. Handy compact design (246(W) x 375(D) x 289(H) mm3) allows maximized space utilization and the light weight (~ 9.2 kg) provides portability.Compared to conventional blood analyses done in clinical laboratories, the analyzer system is suitable for point-of-care applications because it requires a smaller amount of blood takes less time, and does not require specially trained operators, or expensive instruments to run biochemical assays and immunoassays separately.
20Samsung LABGEO PA20    Introduction ŶOperating PrincipleThe analyzer is equipped with two optical detection modules. One is a photometer and the other is a uorometer. The photometer can measure absorbance at 10 dierent wavelengths (340, 405, 450, 500, 550, 570, 600, 630, 660, and 700 nm) to accommodate various chemical and immunological reaction protocols. The measured absorbance is converted into the concentration of the analytes.For endpoint reactions, the nal absorbance is used for the calculation of the concentration of the analyte.For kinetic reactions, the absorbance change during a predetermined time is utilized for the calculation of the concentration instead of the nal absorbance.The uorometer utilizes a time-resolved uorescence method to support high-sensitivity immunoassay based on europium nanoparticle lables. A 365 nm LED is used as an excitation light source and a red-sensitive photomultiplier tube is used as a photodetector. The measured uorescence intensity is converted into the concentration of the anlayte.
