MILAN, June 15, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
To fulfill the growing need of Colorectal Cancer Screening organizations and
big clinical laboratories, Sentinel Diagnostics - an Italian company focused
for more than 35 years on the development and production of In Vitro
Diagnostics for the most advanced Clinical Chemistry, Immunochemistry and
Molecular Diagnostics platforms - announces the launch of the SENTiFIT(R) 800
Analyzer, a fully automated and high throughput system for Fecal Immunochemical
Test.
Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is one of the most dangerous and lethal cancers. It
represents the second leading cause of cancer related death in the western
world with almost 2 million of new cases/year and 0.9 million deaths
(www.iarc.fr ). If early diagnosed, CRC is curable in most of the cases,
therefore most countries organize national or regional screenings to identify
the cancers in their early stage, making the cure more efficient and thus
considerably decreasing mortality. Those screening programs are testing
millions of people every year and this creates new challenges in the practical
organization of the laboratories. The new high throughput analyzer SENTiFIT(R)
800 can meet the need of throughput, automation and accuracy of the most
demanding situation.
"For almost 20 years, Sentinel Diagnostics has supported the fight against
colorectal cancer with high quality FOB Gold(R) test and analyzers," explains
Marco Buonaguidi, Head of Sales and Marketing. "The SENTiFIT(R) 800 has been
developed specifically for FIT screening centers and represents a step further
in the direction to strengthen our commitment in the field of gastrointestinal
diseases diagnosis".
The SENTiFIT(R) 800 Analyzer is a high-end system dedicated to fecal testing
able to process up to 550 test/h, 1 million tests every year samples in total
automation and full traceability. It delivers a relevant reduction of hands-on
time, better management of resources and decreasing of manual errors. The
system is fed by a dedicated sample loader (Rack Handler RH-150) that provides
a steady flow of up to 250 samples to the analyzer unit.
The CE-marked SENTiFIT(R) 800 Analyzer is compatible with the FOB Gold(R) line,
the complete solution for the identification of occult blood in feces, and with
the CALiaGold(R) line reagents for the quantification of fecal Calprotectin,
the first-choice test to identify the presence of inflammation in the bowel.
