I - STAT ACT CELITE CARTRIDGE BOX OF 10 This product is a box containing 10 i‑STAT ACT Celite cartridges, a veterinary product designed for use with the i‑STAT analyzer at the point of care to measure Activated Clotting Time (ACT) using Celite as an activator. It is used under the supervision of a professional veterinarian and provides fast and reliable coagulation testing using fresh whole blood.

Main Benefits

Rapid, lab-quality results at the point of care using a portable system. Relies on chemical detection of thrombin rather than mechanical clot formation, enhancing reliability and repeatability. Less affected by external factors such as temperature, hematocrit, dilution, fibrinogen levels, and user techniques. Supports monitoring of heparin therapy at moderate to high levels in clinical settings.

Composition

Each cartridge contains a sample collection chamber, sensors for detecting the coagulation endpoint, and dry chemicals including diatomaceous earth (Celite) and thrombin substrate. Diatomaceous Earth (Celite): minimum quantity 14.4 µg Thrombin Substrate: minimum quantity 0.36 µg

Instructions for Use

Used with fresh whole blood from an artery or vein. The cartridge is placed in a compatible i‑STAT analyzer, which automatically conducts the test and displays the activated clotting time in seconds. Monitoring parameters or anticoagulant adjustments should be determined by a qualified veterinarian based on species, body weight, and clinical condition.

Package Size

The package contains 10 cartridges, each for single use.

Note

This product is intended for veterinary use under professional supervision. It is designed for diagnostic testing in the laboratory to support anticoagulant monitoring and should be used with the appropriate i‑STAT analyzer.
