Information

The Icon-5 OP is a smart, laser-based 5-part differential hematology analyzer with an open vial sampling option that inherited its predecessors' elegant and award-winning design. The Icon-5 OP provides a 27-parameter complete blood cell count report that includes a 5-part diff WBC scattergram, as well as RBC and PLT histograms, using the following measurement technologies: laser-based forward-scattered light method for the differentiation of white blood cells (WBC), volumetric impedance method for detection of red blood cells (RBC) and photometric method for the measurement of hemoglobin (HGB) levels. The Icon-5 OP was primarily developed to be used in Point-of-Care (PoC) environments, such as in Intensive Care Units, Emergency Departments, GP Offices, Blood Banks, or even Mobile Care Units, because it has not only a compact size, low reagent consumption, and small sampling volume processing, but it also doesn’t require any weekly maintenance action from the user.
NORMA Instruments Zrt.H7.A38Norma Instruments is a Hungarian company specializing in the designing and manufacturing of high-quality and innovative blood analysis systems serving the in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) market. Since our company’s launch in 2012, Norma has grown into an international company that operates in nearly 80 countries today through a well-established and well-trained distribution network. Our product range consists of hematology analyzers and reagents for human medical and veterinary use. Norma Icon hematology analyzers can perform one of the most common hematology tests, the complete blood count (CBC), a quantitative test that counts the number of various white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets in human and animal blood. Norma was among the first companies to utilize microfluidic technologies (the blood samples used for the measurement pass through hairline tubes inside the device) in the development of hematology analyzers, which allowed us to develop the smallest hematology analyzers with the smallest sample volume processing and smallest reagent consumption in the world. Our innovations enable the analyzer to be used in point-of-care or near-patient testing environments, such as in Intensive Care Units, Emergency Departments, General Practitioner Offices, Blood Banks, Mobile Care Units. Since the launch of our company, Norma has acquired several patents and awards, from which the most outstanding were the International Red Dot Design Award in 2014, the Hungarian Millennium Innovation Award in 2016 and the Environmental Innovation Prize in 2018.
