Brenda, I have one question in relationship to the sensitivity of the camera on the analyzer. Do you occasionally see specs towards the bottom (i.e. no clean delineation of the unagglutinated pellet at the bottom of the well) and have your techs expressed concerns regarding manual interpretation using the image on the screen versus the card in hand?

I've heard of issues with the new analyzers and their high definition cameras.

Yes, we do sometimes see specks.  But what has been more problematic for us is seeing a lot of haze (and when you are working with a new analyzer, you are not sure how to interpret "heavy haze.")  We also get a number of false-positive reactions.  So we end up doing a lot of work-ups.  Grifols has found an issue with their reagents from this and we hope to see an improvement soon.
