The AKLIDES® system is the world‘s first automated IFA analyzer for standardized, digital imaging of processed IFA slides. The AKLIDES® system is used to support the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases. It allows the analysis of up to five slides or 60 samples and designed for a high sample throughput.
The user-friendly AKLIDES® software enables objective ANA / ANCA pattern recognition in approx. 35 seconds per sample (ANA / ANCA / CLIFT). The simultaneous recording of the fluorescence intensity allows the determination of the end-titer from just one standard sample dilution, making the analysis of complex and cost-intensive dilution series obsolete.
Validated protocols and AKLIDES® assay files support the standardized evaluation of a large number of immunofluorescence analyzes for the determination of antibodies against HEp-2 cells (ANA), granulocytes (ANCA) and Crithidia luciliae (CLIFT, dsDNA), various tissue sections and against specific antigens using the CytoBead® technology. The results are clearly presented in well-arranged reports.
The powerful AKLIDES® system is easy and intuitive to use and indispensable for all diagnostic routine ervices in the fields of rheumatology and gastroenterology.
