Evidence Investigator

Evidence Investigator

The Evidence Investigator is a compact, semi-automated bench top platform applicable for a wide range of settings. The bench-top system is user-friendly and brings the benefits of time and labour saving to smaller drug test setting. The multiplex system offers an acceptable sample throughput of 702 drug tests in 75 minutes. Ideal for forensic applications, the semi-automated assay remains significantly faster than automated ELISA methods.

Features:

  • Semi-automated, bench-top
  • Up to 702 tests in 75 minutes
  • Multiple tests from 25μl sample
  • Ability to store and retrieve work lists saving time
  • Barcode scanner for sample traceability
  • Bar-coded samples and reagents
  • Internal back-up stores over six years of results
  • User-defined cut-off levels without recalibrating
  • Extensive QC data generation
  • Retrospective reporting
  • Password Protected Software
  • Chain of custody features
  • Suitable for medium throughput laboratories
