About Abaxis
Abaxis develops, manufactures, markets and sells portable blood
analysis systems for use in any veterinary or human patient-care
setting to provide clinicians with rapid blood constituent
measurements. The system consists of a compact, 5.1 kilogram
(11.2 pounds), portable analyzer and a series of single-use plastic
discs, called reagent discs, that contain all the chemicals
required to perform a panel of up to 13 tests on veterinary
patients and 14 tests on human patients. The system can be
operated with minimal training and performs multiple routine tests
on whole blood, serum or plasma samples. The system provides
test results in less than 12 minutes with the precision and
accuracy equivalent to a clinical laboratory analyzer. The
veterinary business also provides to the animal health and research
market a line of hematology instruments for point-of-care complete
blood counts (CBC), a specialty instrument to screen for and detect
clotting disorders and to measure equine fibrinogen levels, a
handheld instrument for the rapid assessment of certain critical
care tests and rapid point-of-care tests for Heartworm infections,
Parvovirus, Giardia, Lyme disease, Ehrlichia and
FeLV/LV. Abaxis, through its AVRL division, provides routine
laboratory testing as well as specialty testing for veterinarians
nationwide. For more information, visit
