Chemistry Analysers
Walk-away automated clinical chemistry — 400+ tests per hour across 100+ assays.
80% of clinical decisions are made on laboratory results. Those results are only as reliable as the analyser producing them.
The HORIBA ABX Yumizen platform delivers 400+ tests per hour across 100+ clinical chemistry assays — including liver function, renal function, cardiac markers, metabolic panels, lipids and endocrine tests. Walk-away automation, onboard reagent management and an emergency STAT priority channel make the Yumizen series ideal for high-volume African hospital laboratories where staff capacity is limited and result turnaround directly affects patient care. Jos•Hansen supplies, commissions and supports the complete HORIBA chemistry platform — including reagent importation, in-country stock management and preventive maintenance — across East and Southern Africa.
Throughput
400+ tests per hour with walk-away automation — the analyser runs unattended while laboratory staff focus on result validation and clinical communication rather than instrument babysitting.
Breadth
100+ assays covering the full clinical chemistry menu: liver enzymes, renal markers, cardiac troponins, glucose, HbA1c, lipid panels, thyroid function and inflammatory markers — all from a single platform.
Urgency
STAT emergency channel prioritises urgent samples and delivers results within 10 minutes — the turnaround time required for ICU, A&E and surgical decision-making.
Walk-away automation — 400+ tests per hour with no operator babysitting.
Manual clinical chemistry processes require trained staff to pipette, incubate and read reactions — introducing variability, consuming time and scaling poorly with patient volumes. The HORIBA Yumizen G800 automates the entire analytical process: sample aspiration, reagent dispensing, incubation, photometric reading and result flagging. At 400+ tests per hour, the analyser processes the output of a busy African hospital laboratory with minimal daily hands-on time. Onboard reagent storage with level detection and automatic QC runs further reduce operator burden.
100+ assays — the complete clinical chemistry panel from one system.
African hospital laboratories must diagnose and monitor an unusually broad disease burden: HIV metabolic complications, tuberculosis-related hepatotoxicity, malaria-associated renal impairment, non-communicable diseases (diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease) and surgical patient monitoring. The HORIBA Yumizen menu covers all of these from a single instrument — reducing capital cost, simplifying training and consolidating the reagent supply chain onto one supplier contract.
Reagent supply, cold-chain management and consumables — Jos•Hansen handles it.
A chemistry analyser without reagents is useless. Jos•Hansen manages the complete HORIBA reagent supply chain from importation through to delivery: customs clearance, cold-chain management where temperature-sensitive reagents require it, in-country buffer stock to prevent clinical stock-outs, and standing order replenishment. Calibrators, controls, cuvettes and maintenance reagents are included in the supply programme — one call covers the entire consumable footprint of the HORIBA platform.
