Piccolo Xpress™ Offline Demonstration Piccolo Reagent Disc Piccolo Instrument Benefits for Healthcare Practitioners
Here is the Piccolo family of reagent discs. There are 13 in total, 11 of which are fully CLIA waived Click on the front package (the red one) for a closer look. This menu represents over 97% of all requested chemistries.
They are shipped and stored refrigerated and can be used directly from the refrigerator. All Piccolo Reagent Discs are individually packaged and sealed in foil pouches. Click on the arrow to tear open the pouch and reveal the reagent disc.
The Piccolo technology was originally developed for use in the Space Shuttle. Each self-contained reagent disc is single use. One patient, one disc. The outer ring has a barcode that contains calibration, lot, expiration and disc type. Inside the barcode ring are the cuvettes that hold the reagent and QC beads. In the center is a foil cup that contains the sample diluent. Centrifugal action mixes the diluted sample and hydrates the reagent beads.
