A project involving the installation of specialised laboratory equipment by Vivian Corporation on behalf of Sysmex Corporation at the National Blood Transfusion Service earlier this month led to Sysmex scheduling one of their European distributor meetings in Malta this September.

The announcement was made by Patrick Baars, area manager at Sysmex Europe GmbH, during a special application training session for analysts and employees at the National Blood Transfusion Service to help them familiarise themselves with the new equipment.

Vivian Corporation, which has been the exclusive distributor for the Sysmex brand in Malta for more than 12 years, has just finished installing two Sysmex XS-1000i analysers at the National Blood Transfusion Service laboratories following a successful bid for a government tender. The XS-1000i is a high quality haematology analyser dedicated to measuring complete blood counts (CBCs) and five types of white blood cells in just a few minutes. This fast analysis makes blood more readily available to patients, and is of particular value especially to those patients who need blood quickly.

Established in 1968 and specialised in IVD (In Vitro Diagnostics) including haematology, coagulation and urinalysis analysers, Sysmex is considered the leading name in haematology in the IVD market. Sysmex Corporation has its head office in Japan, exports to more than 160 countries worldwide and has its European headquarters in Germany.
