microINR Testing System

Additional information

microINR System - INR Testing

The microINR Meter is an in vitro diagnostics medical device, intended to monitor oral anticoagulation therapy (OAT) with vitamin K antagonist drugs.
The microINR System has been developed for fast and convenient INR testing and is intended for patient self-testing use, as well as for healthcare professionals at Point of Care settings.

The system provides quantitative determination of prothrombin time (PT) in INR (International Normalised Ratio) units with fresh capillary blood performed by fingersticking. The microINR system is fully automatic, requires minimum testing steps and low sample volume and features a multilevel QC strategy.

• Small, portable analyser which is easy to use
• Small sample volume (3μL)
• Lab-on-a-chip system, patented technology for accurate and reproducible results
• Automatic calibration

How it works:

The microINR System refers to the reader (microINR Meter) and the analytic test strips (microINR Chips). There are three analysers with different connectivity options that all employ iLine’s innovative microfluidic and lab-on-a-chip technology, with the same test chip being used across all three devices. This technology provides means to perform a biological test comprising sample application, reagent storage, mixing, detection and QC, all these areas embedded in a miniaturised chip using a minimum volume of blood sample. This innovative concept retains quality equivalents to the classical laboratory processes but, at the same time, provides the advantages of a user-friendly one-step assay.
