Solution
Analyzer did not detect all rotor chemistry
beads. Rerun with new rotor.
Reagent beads did not dissolve properly.
Rerun with new rotor.
Possibly triggered by lipemic sample. Spin
and check sample integrity. Contact Abaxis
Technical Support or verify integrity before
rerun.
Sample did not mix with reagents
sufficiently. If patient HCT > 60%, rerun
with plasma or serum.
Insufficient rotor reagents to complete run.
Rerun with new rotor.
Analyzer's photometer detected brighter
than normal flash. If symptom persists,
contact Abaxis Technical Support.
The rotor has not received enough sample to
function properly. If patient HCT >60%,
rerun with plasma or serum.
Sample did not reach chemistries. Rerun
with new rotor.
Background absorbance too high. Contact
Abaxis Technical Support.
During one of the system checks, the
analyzer attempted to compute an
absorbance from a cluster of flashes that
were too variable. Possibly triggered by
lipemic sample. Spin and check sample
integrity. Contact Abaxis Technical Support
or verify integrity before rerun.
Rotor temperature too variable or outside
proper range during run. If symptom
persists, contact Abaxis Technical Support.
