The Stat Fax 4200 is a compact, microprocessor-controlled, multi-purpose photometer
®
system designed to read and calculate the results of assays, which are read in 96 well
microplates or strip trays.
The Stat Fax 4200 may be used for in-vitro diagnostics. It is a user-programmable open
®
system with selectable plate formatting, alphanumeric test naming, automatic interpretation
options, duplicate well options, curve plotting and editing, flags and error messages from
