Abaxis Company Description
Abaxis makes a praxis of producing what the facts is when analyzing patients' blood. Its point-of-care blood analyzers can perform more than 20 types of tests on animals and humans. The analyzers are portable, require little training, provide on-the-spot results, and offer built-in quality control and calibration. They come with reagent discs for performing common blood tests.
