The CellMek SPS system helps you unlock the power of lean by addressing major process wastes related to sample preparation in your clinical flow cytometry laboratory.
The CellMek SPS System is designed to enable lean processing. The LEAN concept provides a systematic approach to look at workflows to take out all non-value adding process steps, the so-called process wastes, in order to increase efficiency. The CellMek SPS System addresses the challenges associated with complex sample preparation in flow cytometry to increase lab efficiency and helps you to cope with increasing workloads. Are you ready to Unlock the Power of Lean?
The CellMek SPS system helps your lab reach the next level of process optimization. It is designed to simultaneously manage various preparation methods in random access while providing continuous loading, optimizing efficiency and traceability.

The CellMek SPS is an automated sample preparation system intended for in vitro diagnostic use that can be programmed by the user to perform a variety of liquid handing operations, including sample preparation for flow cytometry. It is designed to automate staining, lysing, incubating, and washing of different biological specimen types, which enhances productivity by minimizing resource allocation for repetitive work in the clinical laboratory. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the precision performance of CellMek SPS (repeatability and reproducibility) using a representative sample preparation workflow that utilizes the Cell Wash Module (CWM) as well as the Dry Reagent Module, which supports the DURACartridge custom dry reagent format.

The test cases in this study utilized a Wash-Stain-Lyse/Fix-Wash workflow with a 10-Color (10C) cocktail in DURACartridge dry format and the IOTest 3 +0.25% fixative lysing solution. The 10C cocktail included Kappa-FITC, Lambda-PE, CD10-ECD, CD5-PC5.5, CD200-PC7, CD34-APC, CD38-AA700, CD20-AA750, CD19-PB, and CD45-KrO. Data from samples prepared by the CellMek SPS were acquired on a Navios flow cytometer and analyzed using Kaluza C software. Standard Deviation (SD) and Coefficient of Variations (%CV) were calculated for each marker by each instrument and across all instruments.
For repeatability testing, peripheral blood specimens obtained from normal donors were spiked with CD34+ KG1a Cells and processed by three CellMek SPS instruments (1 donor/instrument, 10 replicates/donor). A single-output-tube panel was defined to process 100 μL of specimen at a time, which was then run in replicate thus eliminating any system variability due to multi-dispense of specimen.
Analysis Strategy for Repeatability:
For reproducibility testing, one lot of ClearLLab Control Cells, Abnormal (part number B90003) was processed on three CellMek SPS instruments. To ensure even use of both assemblies within the CWM and capture of maximum module variability, a two-output-tube panel was defined to process 100 μL of specimen in duplicate per specimen tube run, which was then assigned to two identical specimen tubes that were run in parallel (4 output tubes total). Specimen pairs were run in duplicate (8 output tubes) at least once a day (AM and/or PM) for at least five days for a total of 80 replicates per instrument. The AM and PM runs were processed at least 2 hours apart.
Analysis Strategy for Reproducibility:

DURACartridges
DURACartridges are a new format of custom designed dry pre-mixed antibody panels to work with the CellMek SPS Sample Preparation System. Our proprietary method to dry reagents with the DURA Innovations technology does not involve the process of lyophilization and offers many advantages for improved workflow efficiency. Every DURACartridge has 12 wells with dry reagents covered with pierceable foil. The CellMek SPS System provides onboard capacity of up to 12 DURACartridges, 12 tests each, which adds up to a total capacity of up to 144 tests. That can help further decrease the turnaround time in labs with higher throughput.
DURACartridges can be ordered through Custom Reagent Services. This service offers flexibility to design a reagent and panel configuration, using Beckman Coulter’s large antibody portfolio, as well as choose the preferred reagent format in order to simplify workflow and minimize time spent on manual processes. Depending on their needs, laboratories can choose either LUCID Custom Panel Design and Cocktail Services* or RESOURCE Contract Manufacturing Services**
