Charles River Endosafe nexgen-PTS Instrument

Description

The Charles River Endosafe nexgen-PTS is a portable, handheld spectrophotometer designed for rapid, point-of-use endotoxin testing and microbial detection. This system utilises kinetic chromogenic methodology to deliver quantitative results directly at the site of sample collection, streamlining the quality control workflow by eliminating the need for traditional laboratory benchtop setups. The instrument automates the mixing and incubation steps required for assay performance, reducing manual pipetting errors and improving data integrity in regulated environments.
