Reagents, Calibrators and Consumables
Uninterrupted supply of the original reagents, calibrators and control materials matched to your instrument, on a shipment plan sized to your consumption.
A laboratory's real risk is not buying the analyzer but running out of reagents six months later. A reagent interruption makes the instrument directly unusable, so consumable supply cannot be considered separately from instrument selection.
Analyzers are validated together with the manufacturer's reagents, calibrators and control materials. Third-party products can affect measurement accuracy, quality control results and, in most cases, the instrument warranty; accreditation also requires documented lot traceability and control material compatibility.
Selection criteria
- Instrument–reagent compatibility
- Each instrument family has its own reagent set. The table below shows which instrument works with which consumable group; orders should reference the full instrument model name.
- Consumption rate and stock plan
- A shipment plan is built from your monthly test count. Excess stock creates expiry risk and low stock creates interruption risk; the right quantity is calculated from consumption.
- Calibrators and control materials
- Calibrators and blood controls should be planned alongside reagents. Because control material lot changes can shift quality control charts, transitions are planned in advance.
- Expiry and lot tracking
- Consumables carry expiry dates. Lot number and expiry tracking is required for both quality control records and audits; we run this tracking with you.
- Storage conditions
- Some reagents and control materials require cold chain. The laboratory's cold storage capacity should be factored into the delivery plan.

Frequently asked questions
- Can I use third-party reagents on my analyzer?
- Analyzers are validated together with the manufacturer's reagents and calibrators. Third-party use can affect measurement accuracy, quality control results and, in most cases, the instrument warranty. In accredited laboratories it also creates a method verification burden.
- How are reagent supply interruptions avoided?
- We build a scheduled shipment plan from your monthly test count. The plan is updated as consumption changes, reducing both expiry risk and stock-out risk.
- Do you also supply calibrators and blood controls?
- Yes. Original calibrators and blood controls are planned alongside reagents for each instrument family. Because control material lot changes can affect quality control charts, transitions are planned in advance.
- How do I know which reagent fits my instrument?
- The mapping table above shows the main groups. Before ordering, simply send us the full model name of your instrument and we will produce the compatible consumable list.
- How are cold chain products delivered?
- Reagents and control materials requiring cold chain are shipped under appropriate conditions. The laboratory's cold storage capacity is taken into account when planning delivery.
