Products
Automated multiplex ex-vivo blood analyzer (prototype)
A prototype platform that automatically withdraws small volumes of whole blood from a patient vascular line, measures multiple analytes (glucose, lactate, hemoglobin, oxygen saturation) using integrated sensors, and reinfuses the sampled blood in a closed-loop process to avoid blood loss.
