System requirements
To achieve optimal results using the MicroEye® the following basis components are required:
- A perfusion pump – which can be connected to the luer-lock fitting on the MicroEye®
- A physiological solution such as saline – Fluids should be approved for iv administration
- Dialysate collection vial or online sensor – Various vials and sample tubes can be used.
Ideally these should be suitable for the collection and storage of low volumes (circa low µL to sub-mL range, depending on collection period required). Alternatively online sensors can be fitted for point-of-care measurement however, their performance may influence real-time monitoring particularly if the generation of results is delayed.
(right: Once in position, a physiological fluid is pumped through the MicroEye ® and substances that are collected from the blood are analysed with an on line sensor)
If in doubt regarding the suitability of your components please contact us for advice.
