Osmometric analyser IVD

Osmometric analysers are laboratory instruments designed to measure the osmotic concentration of clinical specimens like urine, serum, or tears. Clinically, they help diagnose conditions such as renal disease, diabetes insipidus, or hormonal imbalances by detecting abnormal osmolar ratios through precise freezing-point or vapour-pressure analysis.

These devices are typically regulated as in vitro diagnostics (IVDs) and may require compliance with standards like ISO 13485 or FDA 21 CFR Part 820. They are generally supplied as automated or semi-automated systems, often requiring calibration and maintenance to ensure accurate diagnostic results.
