Dynacon Introduces InnovaThe most advanced automated microbiology specimen processorTORONTO, ONTARIO. November 12, 2008 — Dynacon introduces Innova – the new standard in automated microbiology specimen processing. Dynacon, the world leader in pre-analytical microbiology automation, introduces Innova, today’s most advanced specimen processor. The world of microbiology automation is changing. To meet the growing need for microbiology lab automation and changing customer needs, Dynacon is introducing Innova, the new standard in pre-analytical microbiology specimen processing. The Innova addition expands Dynacon’s successful line of inocuLAB models that continue to satisfy the needs of increasing numbers of microbiology labs around the world. As Dynacon’s new premium product, Innova includes all of inocuLAB’s features while adding many new exciting ones. Dynacon has improved its already impressive spec sheet by targeting increased throughput, capacity, performance and versatility. For instance, Innova meets the demand of new liquid-based flocked swab technology. Innova is the perfect solution for labs facing labor shortages or increasing volumes. Innova is the most versatile specimen processor available, accommodating the full range of microbiology specimen containers, streak patterns, protocols, and workflows. Innova is the latest milestone in Dynacon’s continued focus on delivering quality products and developing new automated instruments. “It consolidates years of experience in the microbiology lab market and valuable feedback from our customers,” says Dr. Reda Fayek, President & COO, “It is the result of more than16 months of rigorous market research and intense product development.” The launch comes at a time when customers are beginning to utilize new specimen transport technologies and are demanding reliable, high performance, automated instruments with a sound return-on-investment. Innova addresses the many challenges microbiology labs face today, such as consolidations, increasing workload, limited staff resources, and budget pressures. Innova is the most advanced automated microbiology specimen processor from the company that invented the world’s first automated processor. “With its largest specimen capacity, fastest throughput and longest unattended walk-away time, Innova considerably improves the return on investment and provides the shortest payback period,” explains Steve Conly, Sales & Marketing Manager, North America. One of Innova’s most notable features is that it handles a lab’s full range of specimen containers without ever needing to switch parts or change accessories. By automatically adjusting to different specimen container types at the same time, its versatility allows true walk-away capabilities without any operator intervention. The Innova has a capacity of 200 containers, allowing users to enjoy a walk-away time of up to 1 hour. It is pre-loaded with Dynacon’s entire library of streak patterns — or laboratories can design and implement their own. This allows labs the ability to customize the instrument so that it replicates each lab’s SOP. Dynacon automation helps microbiology labs increase productivity, improve quality and reduce costs. With 30 years of experience, Dynacon’s automation is the most trusted name in pre-analytical microbiology automation. Dynacon’s family of products process 13 million specimens every year in hospitals, research and clinical laboratories, and reference labs across the U.S., Canada, Sweden, the Netherlands, Denmark, Italy, Belgium and the U.K..
