IDEXX VetStat® Electrolyte and Blood Gas Analyser Test Menu

Room-temperature storage cassettes are ready to use immediately, so you're prepared for anything

Sample Cassettes

Each lot of sample cassettes is calibrated during the manufacturing process. Each sample cassette package is then labeled with a bar code containing this calibration information, as well as its lot number and expiration date.

• Choose from four single-use cassettes

  Cassette		Tests
  VetStat® Electrolyte 8 Plus		Na+, K+, Cl-, pH, PCO2, tCO2, HCO3-, anion gap
  Fluid Therapy/Acid-Base		pH, PCO2, HCO3-, anion gap, Na+, K+, Cl-, tCO2
  Respiratory/Blood Gas		pH, PO2, PCO2, HCO3-, anion gap, Na+, K+, Cl-
  Ionized Calcium		Ca++
  Glucose		GLU

The sample cassette's bar code is read by swiping the cassette package through the bar-code reader. The sample cassette is then installed and an automatic calibration verification is performed using a precision gas mixture and the sample cassette's internal storage buffer.
