DEXA Scan

The EUROIMMUN Analyzer I-2P is an open system for fully automated ELISA processing of up to 3 microplates and 144 patient samples in one run. The combination of EUROIMMUN ELISAs and EUROIMMUN Analyzer I-2P enables a quick and simple, but also a secure routine operation, owing to the automatic recognition and allocation of reagents and the import of QC data via Data Matrix codes. The results are automatically generated through the inbuilt software.

Fitness testing

VO2 Max testing

This test involves walking or running on a treadmill at a specific pace and grade, with the speed and incline increasing every minute until the individual reaches their maximum effort. We use the Reebok SL8.0 Heavy duty commercial treadmill for this test. The individual’s heart rate, oxygen consumption, and breathing rate are measured and recorded at each stage. Based on these measurements, the VO2 max score is calculated and interpreted to determine the individual’s aerobic capacity and fitness level. 

EUROStar III Plus microscope

The LED fluorescence microscope EUROStar III Plus has been precisely tailored to the requirements of indirect immunofluorescence. A camera is attached directly to the integrated photo tube for capturing digital images. The EUROStar III Plus includes a halogen lamp as standard equipment for normal transmitted light microscopy in bright and dark field and can be upgraded for phase contrast work.
