PRINCIPLE OF WORKING:
Below is the diagram representing the main functional elements of the instrument White light produced by
the lamp is focused into a beam by lens and passes through the interference filter and monochromatic light
beam falls on the sample. Part of the light is absorbed by the sample, the remaining is transmitted. The
transmitted light is focused onto the photodiode. The photodiode converts the received light in to an
electrical signal that is transformed into digital form from which the microprocessor calculates the optical
density, taking in account of the blank and bichromatic selection.

5.7 Printer
A) Internal Printer (Thermal Printer)
MICRO TOUCH 1300 comes with a built in 20 column Thermal Printer. User has to take proper care to
handle this delicate instrument.

TIPS FOR CAREFUL USAGE OF PRINTER

Do not pull the paper when loaded
• Lift the paper lever carefully and load the paper
• Keep the instrument clean and dust free

MICRO TOUCH 1300 gives line feed automatically wherever it is necessary for clear reading like
• While powering on
• In between character lines

User may operate the instrument by disabling the printer from the utilities menu.

How to insert the paper

Insert the thermal paper roll by placing the sensitive side facing down. The sensitive paper side is
recognizable by its smoother face.

Before inserting the paper After inserting the paper

6 INSTALLATION AND START-UP INSTRUCTIONS
While installing and setting up the instrument, the safety warnings and general precautions
described in section 7 must be observed.

6.1 Placing the Instrument:

Place the instrument on a flat working surface or bench top capable of supporting the weight of the instrument.
A clearance of at least 3 inches around the instrument is required to assure optimal ventilation. Room
temperature should be between 18ºC and 35ºC with a relative humidity below 85%. Protect it from direct
sunshine and maintain the instrument in a clean, relatively dust free environment to ensure maximum
performance.

6.2 Power supply:

Once the instrument has been placed, plug it into a power source by using the locally available approved
plug-in cable. Power cord should be CE, CSA and UL marked Voltage: 115 - 230 Volts ± 10%, 60- 50 Hz

6.3 Protective Grounding:

Warning: Make sure that electrical power source is properly grounded.

• After the instrument completes the above steps, a TEST LIST/MENU SCREEN appears.

• The instrument is now in IDLE mode, and ready for use.

• Note: If the instrument is in Flow cell Mode and flow cell is missing,
“Insert flow cell” message will appear on the screen.

7 PRECAUTIONS
Keep the place dry and clean.
Check all the grounding wires properly.
Repeat the readings, if Absorbance is more than 2.0 A.

Use original Packing for transportation.

Use clean Cuvettes. Check the blank absorbance of the cuvette at regular intervals.
Check the temperature of cuvette block at regular intervals, especially before running
Kinetic and Fixed Time tests.

Check the linearity of the instrument at regular intervals using standards.

Do not take any reading when the lid is open
Incubate the cuvettes at set temperature for at least 30 minutes before using

Incubate the reagents at set temperature for at least 30 minutes before using
Wash the flow-cell immediately after high OD samples (1.5 A and above)
Normally, avoid reading HIGH OD samples immediately after referencing.

Wash the flow cell everyday morning before using and evening before closing down
Do not use any sharp objects on the Touch Screen. Always use the STYLUS
provided to operate the touch panel.
Do not switch OFF the instrument in running mode. User needs to come back to the Test list
screen for switching OFF the instrument.
Similarly, switch OFF the instrument when not in use.

In Flowcell mode, automatic pump calibration is implemented. So while doing the pump calibration, only
enter the exact measured residual volume out of 1000 µl. Don’t enter any less or higher value than the residual
volume. Refer to 8.3.5 for Pump Calibration.

8.3.3. Pump Cal:
The option of “Pump Cal” allows the operator to adjust the volume being aspirated
through the Flowcell.

The adjustment of the peristaltic pump has two functions:

• To adjust the volume of liquid aspirated into the flow cell. The volume of liquid must be enough to
rinse Flowcell sufficiently, but not more than the reaction mixture.

• To adjust the volume aspirated during a wash cycle.

• If the aspiration volume is too high, air will be sucked into the flow cell. If aspiration volume is too
low, not enough liquid will flush the Flowcell. Whenever this occurs it is necessary to adjust the
aspiration volume.

8.4. QUALITY CONTROL
Quality Control is a process that checks an instrument or testing site to make sure it is reporting accurate
results on patients. The reproducibility of a result from a testing site or instrument should fall within a certain
range. Control solutions of known values are often times used for checking quality control. An institution may
choose how often control solutions are run depending on the accrediting body and test complexity the analyte
falls under. Levy Jennings charts are often used identify problems with QC results.

A Levy Jennings chart is a graph that quality control data is plotted on to give a visual indication whether a
laboratory test is working well.

SD Standard Deviation: A measure of variability representing an average distance of the data from the mean.
The greater the standard deviation, the greater the difference between the individual determinations and the
less the precision of the method.

The instrument measures the blank transmittance and the sample transmittance, subtracts them and calculates
the sample absorbance (monochromatic mode).It is possible to repeat the measure with a different
wavelength (Filter 2/ secondary filter) and consider the difference between the two measures. (Bichromatic

This mode is used to report the Prothrombin Time (PT) and Activated Partial Thrombin Time(APTT). For PT,
results is based on the ISI (International Sensitive Index) of the thromboplastin reagents and INR (International
Normalized Ratio). The INR is calculated using formula INR = R(ISI), where ISI = Lot specified ISI value of
reagent and
R= Patient PT/ Normal PT. Normal PT is also known as Control PT or Standard PT.

15. DECONTAMINATION

15.1. Decontamination Procedure:

If the instrument is to be shipped after being exposed to potentially hazardous material, it should be
decontaminated. The following procedure outlines the method of decontaminating the instrument before
packaging and shipment.

15.2. Purpose of Decontamination:

Decontamination minimizes the risk to all who come in contact with the instrument during shipping,
handling, and servicing.

15.3. General Considerations:

Any laboratory instrument that has been used for clinical analysis is considered a biohazard and should be
decontaminated prior to handling. Intact skin is generally considered an effective barrier against infectious
Organisms; however, small abrasions and cuts may not be always be visible. Prophylactic gloves must be worn
when handling instruments that have not been decontaminated. Gloved hands should be considered
contaminated at all times and must be kept away from eyes, mouth and nose at all times.

Mucous membranes are considered prime entry routes for infectious agents. Wear eye protection and a
surgical mask when there is a possibility of aerosols.

Eating and drinking while decontaminating instruments is not advisable.

Page 102 of 104

 F13, User Manual , V3 MICRO TOUCH 1300
09.08.2020

15.4. Procedure:
A solution of .5% Sodium Hypo Chlorite (NaOCL) solution (Bleach) is used. Commercial bleach is 5%
NaOCL; household bleach is 3% NaOCL. When using commercial bleach, use a 10:1 mixture; if using
household bleach, a 6:1 mixture is required. This is a caustic solution. It is important to wear gloves and eye
protection when handling it.

Wipe down the carrier and all exposed surfaces of the unit with the bleach solution. Remove the top shroud of
the instrument and wipe down the top surface of the instrument base, as well as the inside of the top shroud.

Reassemble the unit and discard the used gloves and towels.
