NOTICE: It is important to note that activating the feature will delay measurement results by approximately one minute, even though it only increases the measurement cycle time by five seconds. Once activated clot detection is active during all sample measurements. When to activate the clot-detection feature It is especially beneficial to activate the clot detection feature in analyzers frequently used to analyze samples known to be prone to clotting, for example, samples drawn from umbilical cords. The new feature enables the analyzer to detect clots caught in the measurement chamber under the ph electrode.

A new feature is included in software version 6.06 of the following products: ABL7xx Series (XPE) analyzers ABL800 FLEX analyzers ABL800 BASIC analyzer.
