Closed concentration systems for Ova and Parasite procedures have
always been plagued with problems; because these concentrators
must mate with standard 50ml centrifuge tubes their filter surfaces
must be significantly smaller than traditional open funnel designs.
These small filters are notoriously prone to clogging, slow filtration,
and leakage. The Para-Pro™ fc50 overcomes these limitations with
its revolutionary patent pending conical filter design. The Para-Pro™
fc50’s conical design provides almost twice the filtration surface of
a comparable flat system and an elevated gas exchange port virtually
eliminates clogging caused by vacuum lock.
In head to head studies the Para-Pro™ fc50 has been shown to recover a greater number and variety of enteric parasites,
increasing diagnostic effectiveness. Use the Para-Pro™ fc50 with Alpha-Tec Systems’ complete line of parasitology
diagnostics to create the most effective clinical parasitology diagnostics possible.
