EKF Diagnostics (Cardiff, Wales, UK) is showcasing its diagnostic technologies and biotechnology solutions at MEDICA 2023 that empower healthcare and medical providers to make informed clinical decisions through point-of-care testing and life sciences applications.

EKF offers cutting-edge point-of-care diagnostic solutions that provide healthcare professionals and patients with rapid, accurate, and accessible testing capabilities and results. The company’s technologies allow for informed decision-making, timely interventions, and improved patient outcomes at the point of care. EKF leads in supporting life sciences applications and research through innovative biotechnology solutions. The company’s comprehensive portfolio offers powerful tools to researchers, scientists, and clinicians for accurate and reliable delivery and results, driving breakthrough discoveries and advancements in healthcare and medical understanding.

Visitors to the EKF booth can explore the company’s range of point-of-care medical diagnostic solutions for hematology and diabetes, including the DiaSpect Tm and Hemo Control hemoglobin analyzers, the Biosen C-Line glucose and lactate analyzer, and the Quo-Test and Quo-Lab HbA1c Analyzers. They can also discover more about EKF Link, the company’s optional software platform designed to provide a flexible and secure method for connecting point-of-care devices to hospital and laboratory IT systems. Additionally, visitors can learn more about EKF Life Sciences, and the company’s latest developments in microbial fermentation, custom bioprocessing, and contract manufacturing.

EKF’s DiaSpect Tm is a hand-held analyzer that provides immediate hemoglobin results and hematocrit calculation while the Hemo Control hemoglobin analyzer delivers accurate hemoglobin and hematocrit results with one simple test. Similarly, the Biosen C-Line Line glucose and lactate analyzer from EKF is designed for lab-accurate glucose and lactate measurement in one test. Among other products on display at MEDICA 2023 is the revolutionary Quo-Lab semi-automated analyzer for HbA1c measurement that provides affordable A1c testing with results in just four minutes. The Quo-Test fully automated analyzer on display at MEDICA 2023 is designed for fast, accurate, and reliable HbA1c measurement with results available in only four minutes.
