Conclusions
The Konelab 20i demonstrated very good analytical performance throughout the evaluation. Correlations to
routine methods in the laboratory were excellent as well precisions.
The Konelab 20i analyzer with Konelab reagents turned out to be a cost-efficient and user-friendly analyzing
system with many features for easy and self-guiding operation. The main routines, loading of samples, reagents
and reaction cuvettes can be performed without any workload interruptions. The analyzer demands very few
maintenance operations daily.
We concluded that Konelab 20i is a reliable analyzer for small- to medium-sized laboratories.
