QBC Autoread Plus: Testimonials

QBC systems have been in use globally for over 25 years with active installations on every continent, including Antarctica.  There are over 15,000 active hematology systems worldwide and at least 1,500 fluorescent microscopy systems using our Malaria, Parasitology, and TB kits.  If you would like references for any of our innovative solutions from users near you, please contact us.

"Following the earthquake in (January 2010), our clinic lab was innundated with new patients.  As a result, we needed a solution for quickly and effectively diagnosing anemia and other diseases.  Someone told me about the Autoread Plus, and made a donation so that we could buy the system.  I cannot begin to tell you the difference it is making in the accuracy and efficiency of our diagnostics.  It is especially marvelous because there is not a tremendous amount of blood to be disposed of.  Plus, out charts are such that the lab results can be nicely displayed."

"With the QBC Autoread, we have been able to increase our overall lab productivity with only minimal maintenance and an impressive amount of convenience.  The design of the system in terms of its size and portability is well-suited for rural district hospitals such as ours and enables us to think about not only hospital-based laboratory tests, but also the possibility of carrying our lab equipment to regional sites where their lab capacity may not be as robust as our own, thereby helping to create partnerships and increase health services more broadly throughout the region."

The QBC Autoread Plus is a durable workhorse.  We've used the unit for about 3 years in remote jungle locations and our newer stationary health clinic in the Bolivian Amazon.  The unit provides valid and reliable results, and requires relatively low maintenance.  It is also extremely user-friendly.  Although we do not have a high patient volume (we average roughly 10 patients per day), the QBC Autoread Plus has outlasted nearly all of our other laboratory equipment.  I highly recommend this product for analysis of hematocrit, hemoglobin, platelet count, and differential cell counts.
