Technical Specifications
VIDAS® Concept Inside
VIDAS® KUBE™ uses the same reagents and workflow that have made VIDAS® an immunoanalyzer of choice for three decades. The VIDAS® concept is based on the interaction of the coated SPR receptacle, containing antigens or antibodies, and the strip series of wells prefilled with the right amount of reagent for the test.
The entire operation is fully automated from incubation to washing and final fluorescence reading. Incubation time and the number of washing cycles are optimized for peak performance.
