Profile: Abbott Diagnostics specializes in pharmaceutical, nutritional, diagnostic instruments, surgical devices, and medical devices. Our medical diagnostic instruments and tests are used in hospitals, reference labs, blood banks, physician offices, clinics and at home to diagnose a range of serious health issues such as infectious diseases, cancer, diabetes and genetic conditions, as well as monitor other important indicators of health. The cornerstone of our diagnostic products is immunodiagnostics, the science of measuring the body's antigen/antibody reactions to detect diseases and other medical conditions. Our molecular diagnostics help physicians detect genetic mutations in patients genes and chromosomes to detect and manage disease. Hand-held point of care diagnostics and blood glucose monitoring devices provide health care professionals and patients with fast, convenient and accurate test results Our Abbott Prism® is a throughput, automated test system for blood screening. We render numerous diagnostic tests for the monitoring & diagnosis of conditions related to the endocrine glands. Our IMx system is an automated analyzer designed to perform microparticle enzyme immunoassay (MEIA), fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA) and ion capture technologies.
