The test menu also includes routine diagnostics and special tests. A touchscreen monitor and clearly designed software featuring easy user prompting guarantee effective operation. The reagents are located in special ready-to-use cartridges. The device's compact and clear design give it an extremely modern look and highlight its quality and reliability. The smooth surfaces also communicate a strong sense of hygiene. The variation between soft curves and sharp contours create interesting contrasts, which are further underscored by the coloration.
