HORIBA (Kyoto, Japan) is presenting its latest IVD solutions at Medlab Middle East 2025, including the Yumizen H550 and H500 hematology analyzers.

The HORIBA Medical Segment designs, develops, and distributes worldwide, in vitro diagnostic systems mainly destined for biological analysis in medical laboratories. These automated analyzers meet the needs of various users including patients, doctors, private laboratories, clinics, and university hospitals. HORIBA’s expertise in vitro diagnostics is one of the most respected in hematology worldwide. The new generation of HORIBA’s automated hematology analyzer offers solid and reliable diagnostic technology as well as rapid and consistent results. HORIBA provides a wide range of hematology analyzers and automated instruments to realize blood analysis (blood cell identification and counting) for the diagnosis of various blood-related diseases. These instruments are designed for all kinds of laboratories, from small laboratories (to 150 patients a day), to larger ones (more than 2000 patients a day). These efficient and reliable instruments feature automated racks, data management, and quality tools providing a complete solution for meeting high-quality medical analysis requirements.

The new Yumizen H500 and H550 compact benchtop hematology analyzers featured at Medlab Middle East 2025 deliver enhanced performance, new features, and increased benefits. Both analyzers come with optional infectious flags for malaria and dengue, making them ideal for small labs to meet a variety of clinical lab environments and settings such as routine hematology, satellite labs, oncology care, and blood banks. HORIBA is also highlighting HELO 2.0, an innovative solution covering all the needs of a high throughput automated hematology platform. Flexible and efficient, HELO 2.0 is the optimum answer to the constant evolution of laboratories. Thanks to its data, tube management, waste, blood film, and digitalization management capability, HELO 2.0 not only fulfills all the needs of laboratories but also helps optimize their TAT, floor space, and reagent storage.
