Frequently asked questions
Does the Kova system standardize the whole workflow?
Yes, the Kova Standardized Urinalysis System is designed to provide a comprehensive, complete solution that standardizes the entire urinalysis workflow, from sample collection to microscopic analysis. This is its core function.
This standardization is achieved through the use of specially engineered components (like Super Tubes, Caps, Petters, and specialized slides) to ensure reliable and consistent testing, minimizing variability across procedures.
The system supports all necessary testing modalities, including:
- Routine urine dipstick chemistry
- Confirmatory testing (Reflex testing)
- Pregnancy testing
- Detailed microscopic examination of cells and particles (using specialized components like the Glasstic Slide 10).
A crucial benefit is the Safety Focused Design, which is engineered to significantly minimize user exposure to biohazardous samples during specimen processing.
Is the Kova system designed to minimize biohazard exposure?
Yes, the Alltrista Plastics Kova System is engineered specifically to minimize user exposure to potentially biohazardous urine specimens. The standardized workflow and custom-designed components, such as the tubes, caps, and ‘Petters’ (custom pipettes), ensure safer handling throughout the collection and analysis process.
What is included in the System Super Pac 1000 with caps option?
The System Super Pac 1000 with caps includes (100) Glasstic Slide 10, (1000) Petters, (1000) Super Tubes and (1000) Caps.
Does the Kova system ensure consistent urinalysis results?
Yes, the Kova Standardized Urinalysis System is engineered to ensure reliable and consistent results by enforcing rigorous standardization across the entire testing workflow.
This high level of reliability is achieved through several core design features:
- Workflow Consistency: All components (slides, tubes, custom pipettes or “petters”) are specially engineered to establish standard, reproducible processes for specimen collection, handling, and analysis.
- Comprehensive Support: The standardized setup supports accurate processing for a full range of tests, including urine dipstick chemistry, confirmatory Reflext testing, pregnancy testing, and microscopic examination of sediment.
- Enhanced Safety: The integrated design actively minimizes user exposure to biohazardous samples, promoting a safer and more controlled laboratory environment crucial for accurate testing.
Does the Kova System support urine dipstick chemistry?
Yes, the Alltrista Plastics Kova Standardized Urinalysis System is designed to facilitate chemical tests using urine dipstick chemistry, along with confirmatory testing, pregnancy tests, and microscopic examination.
Is the Kova system designed for standardized urinalysis workflow?
Yes, the Alltrista Plastics Kova Standardized Urinalysis System is specifically engineered to standardize and simplify your laboratory’s entire workflow, ensuring reliable and consistent results.
Key aspects of its design for standardization include:
- Reliable Workflow: The system uses specially engineered components (slides, sample tubes, and custom “petters”/pipettes) to ensure uniform and reproducible processes for specimen handling and testing.
- Comprehensive Testing: It supports a full spectrum of diagnostic needs, including chemical tests (urine dipstick chemistry), confirmatory (Reflext) testing, pregnancy screening, and detailed microscopic examination.
- Enhanced Safety: The integrated design minimizes user exposure to biohazardous urine samples throughout the collection and analysis process.
Who is the Alltrista Plastics Kovaâ® System intended for?
The system is intended for use by laboratory professionals.
Does the KOVA system include quality controls?
Yes, the Kova Urinalysis System is generally designed to include multi-level urinalysis controls. These components are vital for standardization, helping to ensure the reliability and accuracy of your chemical and microscopic analysis results. Note that the availability of controls may depend on the specific system configuration you select.
What urinalysis tests does the system support?
The KOVA Standardized Urinalysis System is designed to streamline laboratory workflow, minimize biohazardous exposure, and support a comprehensive range of diagnostic tests. It facilitates the following key testing modalities:
- Urine Dipstick Chemistry: Supports standard chemical tests.
- Microscopic Examination: Enables detailed analysis of cells and particles using specialized components, such as the Glasstic Slides.
- Confirmatory Testing: Facilitates Reflext testing for verification and follow-up analysis.
- Pregnancy Tests: Supports the necessary specimen preparation and handling for accurate assessments.
Does this system provide workflow standardization?
Yes, the Alltrista Plastics Kova Standardized Urinalysis System is designed for workflow standardization, ensuring reliable and simple processes for urinalysis. It includes components like specially engineered microscopic slides, sample tubes and caps, and custom pipettes to help standardize the entire procedure.
