• Automated IFA analyzer for high sample throughput • Digital imaging of processed IFA slides • ANA / ANCA pattern recognition and intensity evaluation • ANA / ANCA end-titer determination from only one standard sample dilution • CLIFT for determination of antibodies against dsDNA • Results in 35 seconds* • Imaging of tissue sections (e.g. EmA, …) • Quantification of antibody activities in U/mL or IU/mL using CytoBead® technology • Archiving of images and results • Quality assured data management • Export of all relevant results in pdf- or xls-file format • LIS Connectivity The AKLIDES® system is the world‘s first automated IFA analyzer for standardized, digital imaging of processed IFA slides. The AKLIDES® system is used to support the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases. It allows the analysis of up to five slides or 60 samples and designed for a high sample throughput. The user-friendly AKLIDES® software enables objective ANA / ANCA pattern recognition in approx. 35 seconds per sample (ANA / ANCA / CLIFT). The simultaneous recording of the fluorescence intensity allows the determination of the end-titer from just one standard sample dilution, making the analysis of complex and cost-intensive dilution series obsolete. Validated protocols and AKLIDES® assay files support the standardized evaluation of a large number of immunofluorescence analyzes for the determination of antibodies against HEp-2 cells (ANA), granulocytes (ANCA) and Crithidia luciliae (CLIFT, dsDNA), various tissue sections and against specific antigens using the CytoBead® technology. The results are clearly presented in well-arranged reports.
