SEKISUI Diagnostics (Burlington, MA, USA) displayed its point-of-care rapid diagnostics and clinical chemistry reagents at the 2021 AACC Annual Scientific Meeting & Clinical Lab Expo.

This year’s 2021 AACC was held in partnership with the Canadian Society of Clinical Chemists (CSCC) at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, September 26-30. SEKISUI Diagnostics delivers differentiated products, instrument systems, and services that support the improvement of patient care worldwide. The company is a recognized leader in the development, manufacture, and supply of innovative clinical chemistry reagents and systems that enhance the clinical chemistry laboratory function. Over 1.7 billion tests are performed each year using the company’s products. With a broad line of >65 reagents including cardiovascular, diabetes, renal, liver, therapeutic drug, and specialty assays, SEKISUI is well-poised to meet individual needs.

At AACC 2021, SEKISUI displayed its OSOM rapid diagnostics that offers a variety of family and women’s health products, and services. These diagnostic tests allow healthcare professionals to cost effectively diagnose at the point-of-care in one visit, thus reducing labor and follow-up time while increasing patient satisfaction. The company also demonstrated its Acucy System that provides clinicians with flexibility in workflow and accurate, standardized results for improved patient care.

Also on display was SEKISUI’s FastPack IP System which is a fully automated quantitative immunoassay analyzer designed for use in any size physician office laboratory and provides results in 12 minutes or less with the push of a button. Offering real-time testing with a simple three-step process, the system enables healthcare professionals to diagnose, monitor, and adjust therapy in one patient visit.
