THE PERFECT PARTNER TO TRANSFORM
YOUR HPV TESTING NEEDS TO DELIVER
CLINICAL AND OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCIES

For In Vitro Diagnostics Use Only.

 

ALINITY MP

The perfect partner
to Alinity m

For In Vitro Diagnostic Use. 

Automates manual pre-analytical steps for HR HPV and STI sample processing

Alinity mp is an automated, continuous access, pre-analytical system to prepare samples for the Alinity m HR HPV and Alinity m STI assays.

Processes samples for:

  • Cervical samples collected in ThinPrep and SurePath vials
  • Self-collected vaginal samples collected with simpli-COLLECT™

TRANSFORM YOUR LAB TO MEET TOMORROW’S NEEDS 
 


FLEXIBILITY

Single input rack for ThinPrep and SurePath vials; Reagent addition supports processing of simpli-COLLECT HPV
self‑collected samples


OPERATIONAL PRODUCTIVITY

Reduces error-prone, manual hands-on time required for pre-analytical sample processing


UNIFORMITY

Alinity mp and Alinity m share common software and iconography to provide consistent
user experience.


FLEXIBILITY

Reduce human error and increase first pass acceptance with onboard labeler, advanced pipetting and mucoid detection.

USE AUTOMATION TO HELP IMPROVE LAB PRODUCTIVITY WITH ALINITY MP

Alinity mp completes the following pre-analytical steps

DECAPPING/ RECAPPING

VORTEXING

BARCODE
PRINTING

ALIQUOTING
AND SAMPLE IDENTIFICATION

BENEFITS OF AUTOMATION
 


Simplified and streamlined workflow for ThinPrep and SurePath samples, as well as simpli-COLLECT HPV
self-collected samples


 Predictable turnaround time of test results and reduced potential for human error


 Increased ease of use across the Alinity Family of instruments throughout the laboratory


 Increased first pass acceptance and robust sample processing

CONFIDENCE FOR CLINICIANs

Four key approaches to deliver increased first pass acceptance:

 

 

MUCIOD DETECTION

After aspiration of the input samples, the mucoid detector evaluates the end of the pipette tip to determine if any sample material extends beyond the end of the pipette tip.

If sample material is detected extending beyond the pipette tip, the sample is returned to the input vial and aspiration is attempted again with a new pipette tip.

ON-BOARD LABELING

On-board labeling of output tubes:

  • Reduces hands-on time and potential for error associated with manually labeling tubes
  • System ensures barcode printed on the output tube matches input tube prior to use
PIPETTING

Advanced pipetting to ensure accurate aspiration and dispensing of samples:

  • Pressure monitoring
  • Liquid level sensing
VISION CONTROL SYSTEM

Seven cameras located in the Alinity mp continuously monitor the system during operation.
