Background: Automatic coagulation analyzers have been used in the last 50 years and have been developed considerably. Newly developed tests and methods cannot be conducted in routine laboratories without evaluating their performance. Therefore, their performance must be evaluated and approved before being used routinely. The aim of this study is to evaluate the analytical performance of Sysmex Coagulation System-2500 (CS-2500) and Sekisui CP-3000 automatic coagulation analyzer (CP-3000).

Methods: For APTT, PT, and D-dimer tests, reference range verification study, a method comparison study was performed in both analyzers in accordance with CLSI protocols, and precision and accuracy were evaluated using internal and external quality control samples. In the evaluation of precision and accuracy, CV% and bias% values were calculated. Bland-Altman, Passing-Bablok regression analysis, and correlation coefficient were used in the comparison study.

Results: The CV% values calculated for APTT and PT in both analyzers were found to be below the CLSI recommendation of 5%. D-dimer test results meet the quality criteria recommended by CLSI. Accuracy for both analyzers was within the acceptable limits. The reference ranges recommended by the manufacturer have been veryfied. Regression equations for APTT, PT, and D-dimer are y = -3.313 + 1.188x, y = -0.0399 + 1.048x, and y = 0.155 + 0.655x, respectively, and r values were 0.904, 0.978, and 0.974, respectively.

Conclusions: CS-2500 and CP-3000 analyzers are suitable for laboratory use for routine coagulation. Since the CP-3000 device is newly used in our country, it needs to be supported by more comparison studies.

The development of integrated multiple signal outputs within a single platform is highly significant for efficient and accurate on-site biomarker detection. Herein, colorimetric/electrochemical dual-mode microfluidic paper-based analytical devices (μPADs) were designed for portable, visual and accurate dopamine (DA) detection. The dual-mode μPADs, featuring folded structure, integrate a colorimetric layer and an electrochemical layer using wax printing and laser-induced graphene (LIG) pyrolysis techniques, allowing the vertical flow of analyte solution.

Electrochemical aptamer-based (EAB) sensors are a molecular measurement platform that enables the continuous, real-time measurement of a wide range of drugs and biomarkers in situ in the living body. EAB sensors are fabricated by depositing a thiol-modified, target-binding aptamer on the surface of a gold electrode, followed by backfilling with an alkanethiol to form a self-assembled monolayer. And while the majority of previously described EAB sensors have employed hydroxyl-terminated monolayers, a handful of studies have shown that altering the monolayer headgroup can strongly affect sensor performance.

Robots have to adjust their motor behavior to changing environments and variable task requirements to successfully operate in the real world and physically interact with humans. Thus, robotics strives to enable a broad spectrum of adjustable motor behavior, aiming to mimic the human ability to function in unstructured scenarios. In humans, motor behavior arises from the integrative action of the central nervous system and body biomechanics; motion must be understood from a neuromechanics perspective.
