Snibe Maglumi 800
Hormones are chemical substances that regulate the activities of cells and organs and are produced by specific glands. They are made of proteins; hence, they are very sensitive. A little change in pH or temperature in the body can affect hormones which will then affect the whole body. Due to this, it is very important that we check our hormones regularly to know how certain organs are functioning in the body. To do this, you need to use the best hormone analyzer- Snibe Maglumi 800. You can also read about Easylyte Electrolyte Analyzer.
As a biomedical scientist, there are different analyzers you work with but the Snibe Maglumi 800 stands out as it produces quality results and is trusted by many scientists. The analyzer comes with outstanding features which make its operation very simple and easy to handle. Without much I do, let us take a look at the specifications of this great analyzer.
Interestingly, the analyzer is not only used for measuring the concentrations of hormones. It can also detect tumor markers and infectious diseases. Take a look at the Gazelle HB variant.

What is the principle of Snibe Maglumi 800?
This analyzer uses Chemiluminescence Immunoassay (CLIA) system. This system uses labeling and separation technology. The labeling technology is responsible for defining the mode of reaction while the separation technology is responsible for determining the accuracy, precision, and sensitivity of the reagents. You can also read about the principle of the G6PD test.
The labeling technology used in Snibe Maglumi 800 is Amino-Butyl-Ethyl-Isoluminol popularly known as ABEI. It is a small non-enzyme molecule that has a unique structure that makes it stable in both alkaline and acidic solutions. As ABEI reacts with Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) and Hydrogen Peroxide (H202), chemiluminescence is completed in 3 seconds.
The separation technology used in Snibe Maglumi 800 is Magnetic Microbeads. The magnetic microbeads enlarge the reaction surface of antigens and antibodies to decrease reaction time. It enhances the absolute mixing of reagents to prevent inter/ intra-assay inconsistency in results. By absorbing antigens and antibodies through reaction, accuracy is assured.
In conclusion, CLIA involves the chemical reaction through ABEI (chemiluminescence) which produces light to determine the antibodies with magnetic beads (immunoassay). Find out about the 9180 electrolyte analyzer.
