Overview

The VARIANT II TURBO Hemoglobin Testing System offers automation and powerful data management. Save time and minimize errors with whole blood primary tube sampling — no costly manual preparation required. Streamline workflow through continuous or batch sampling. 

Results and chromatograms are captured and archived by Bio-Rad’s Clinical Data Management (CDM) software. CDM provides remote support and interfaces with laboratory information systems (LIS) for optimal data management.
