Horiba has launched Yumivet, its new veterinary diagnostics brand, and the Yumivet VH2500 haematology analyser, which gives veterinary teams a new in-house option for multispecies blood testing with results in approximately 30 seconds per test.

The Yumivet VH2500 measures 57 parameters including Complete Blood Count (CBC) with a 9-part differential, reticulocyte analysis, and dual platelet measurement methods.

The analyser enables open tube or continuous sample loading and includes pre-configured species profiles with automatic selection or easy switching between species.

It also has an intuitive touchscreen interface, a simplified reagent system, and automated quality control features.

The Yumivet VH2500 is compatible with a slide maker and stainer called Yumivet SPS, a track system called Yumizen T6000, and middleware called Yumizen P8000, and offers connection to laboratory and practice management systems (LIS/PMS).

The Yumivet VH2500 is built on a hybrid analytical platform combining electrical impedance, fluorescence, flow cytometry and spectrophotometry, which Horiba says delivers robust and reliable performance across a wide range of sample types, including challenging or low-volume samples.
