PVT LabSystems® TS-Series Sorters
Integrated Lavender Top Management® Solutions
 

The Sysmex Lavender Top Management solution includes integrated tube sorting and archiving onto the HST-N automation platform.  Powered by Intelligent Automation of Sysmex WAM, this solution raises your level of productivity and decreases overall operational cost by eliminating the need for pre- and post-analytical sample sorting and management.

The automation of lavender top tube sorting, searching, rerunning and archiving is achieved through the integration of TS-Series tube sorter systems onto the HST-N.  Two models of tube sorters, TS-500 and TS-2000, are available to meet the lavender top sample handling needs of small to very high volume laboratories.  

Empower Your Laboratory

TS-Series Tube Sorters, in conjunction with the HST-N return line or other HST configurations, allow for complete management of lavender top tubes from
pre-analytical sorting to hands-free repreat/reflex testing and post-analytical sorting.  

Intelligent automation software, Sysmex WAM, allows the system to:

  • Sort and archive lavender top tubes based on pending and lab-prioritized test codes
  • Input to on-board sort areas based on specific test code and testing area needs
  • Rapidly identify exception samples that require technical intervention
    • Sample results that exceed linearity or samples with cold agglutinins that require specific technical handling prior to rerun
  • Standardize hematology data review process
  • Enable auto-validation and release of results to the LIS
  •  
Lavender top system configurations, with the optimal TS model, are determined through an extensive, consultative evaluation of your laboratory’s testing, sample loads and turnaround time demands.  Sysmex’s Laboratory Solutions Consultants (LSC) assist you in determining the configuration that best meets your testing volume, workflow goals and growth projections.

Seamless Integration of Lavender Top Tube Management

Onboard, user-defined sorting areas allow laboratories to maximize sample handling workflow.  Internal dual buffers allow the system to reroute samples and racks to a maximum of two different onboard testing needs such as:
  • Instrument or slide preparation unit for re-run/reflex testing
  • Additional lavender top testing, e.g., Hemoglobin A1c (Bio-Rad VARIANT II TURBO Link)
Integrated intelligent automation software provided by Sysmex WAM allows further enhancement of sample management such as:
  • Identification of sample location within the specific area on the TS unit
  • Location of sample off the system, providing the specific archive rack and tube position
