Profile: Beckman Coulter, Inc. is a manufacturer of biomedical testing instrument systems, tests & supplies that simplify and automate laboratory processes. Spanning the biomedical testing continuum from medical research & clinical trials to laboratory diagnostics and point-of-care testing, we provide essential biomedical information. GenomeLab is a family of solutions that identifies & removes the bottlenecks in the study of genetics, with the ultimate goal of identifying disease targets for therapy. We also render in vitro diagnostics systems to hospital laboratories. Our Hemoccult® ICT is the latest and most advanced fecal occult blood test (FOBT) in our Hemoccult product line. An immunochemical FOBT (iFOBT) with high specificity and sensitivity, Hemoccult ICT is clinically proven to detect bleeding associated with more cancers & polyps than traditional guaiac-based FOBTs. Because of its superior specificity for lower GI bleeding, Hemoccult ICT is an ideal screening tool for colorectal cancer (CRC), and this specificity also reduces the number of false positive test results.
The company was founded in 1934, has revenues of > USD 1 Billion, has ~10100 employees and is ISO 9000, ISO 9001, ISO 9002, CE certified.

• Automated Pipetter |
• Automated Platelet Counter (FDA Code: GKX / 864.5200) An automated cell counter is a fully-automated or semi-automated device used to count red blood cells, white blood cells, or blood platelets using a sample of the patient's peripheral blood (blood circulating in one of the body's extremities, such as the arm). These devices may also measure hemoglobin or hematocrit and may also calculate or measure one or more of the red cell indices (the erythrocyte mean corpuscular volume, the mean corpuscular hemoglobin, or the mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration). These devices may use either an electronic particle counting method or an optical counting method. |
• Automated Radioimmunoassay Chemistry Analyzer |
• Automated Robot System |
• Automated Sedimentation Rate Device (FDA Code: GKB / 864.5800) An automated sedimentation rate device is an instrument that measures automatically the erythrocyte sedimentation rate in whole blood. Because an increased sedimentation rate indicates tissue damage or inflammation, the erythrocyte sedimentation rate device is useful in monitoring treatment of a disease. |
• Automated Sequencers |
• Automated Slide Spinner (FDA Code: GKJ / 864.5850) An automated slide spinner is a device that prepares automatically a blood film on a microscope slide using a small amount of peripheral blood (blood circulating in one of the body's extremities, such as the arm). |
• Automated Slide Stainer (FDA Code: KPA / 864.3800) An automated slide stainer is a device used to stain histology, cytology, and hematology slides for diagnosis. |
• B12 and Folate |
• Bacillus Subtlis Microbiology Assay, Tobramycin (FDA Code: DID / 862.3900) A tobramycin test system is a device intended to measure tobramycin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic drug, in plasma and serum. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of tobramycin overdose and in monitoring levels of tobramycin to ensure appropriate therapy. |
• Barbiturate High Pressure Liquid Chromatography Test (FDA Code: KZY / 862.3150) A barbiturate test system is a device intended to measure barbiturates, a class of hypnotic and sedative drugs, in serum, urine, and gastric contents. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of barbiturate use or overdose and in monitoring levels of barbiturate to ensure appropriate therapy. |
• Beam-Scanning Confocal Microscope |
• Benchtop Centrifuges |
• Benchtop Microcentrifuges |
• Benchtop Ultracentrifuges |
• Benzodiazepine High Pressure Liquid Chromatography Test (FDA Code: LAA / 862.3170) A benzodiazepine test system is a device intended to measure any of the benzodiazepine compounds, sedative and hypnotic drugs, in blood, plasma, and urine. The benzodiazepine compounds include chlordiazepoxide, diazepam, oxazepam, chlorzepate, flurazepam, and nitrazepam. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of benzodiazepine use or overdose and in monitoring levels of benzodiazepines to ensure appropriate therapy. |
• Beta Globulin Control (FDA Code: DCJ / 866.5160) Abeta -globulin immunological test system is a device that consists of reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques beta globulins (serum protein) in serum and other body fluids.Beta -globulin proteins includebeta -lipoprotein, transferrin, glycoproteins, and complement, and are rarely associated with specific pathologic disorders. |
• Beta-2-Microglobulin Immunological Test System (FDA Code: JZG / 866.5630) Abeta -2-microglobulin immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniquesbeta -2-microglobulin (a protein molecule) in serum, urine, and other body fluids. Measurement ofbeta -2-microglobulin aids in the diagnosis of active rheumatoid arthritis and kidney disease. |
• Bilirubin Diazo Colorimetry Test (FDA Code: CIG / 862.1110) A bilirubin (total or direct) test system is a device intended to measure the levels of bilirubin (total or direct) in plasma or serum. Measurements of the levels of bilirubin, an organic compound formed during the normal and abnormal distruction of red blood cells, if used in the diagnosis and treatment of liver, hemolytic hematological, and metabolic disorders, including hepatitis and gall bladder block. |
