HORIBA LAQUAtwin Ca-11C Pocket Calcium Ion Meter

HORIBA LAQUAtwin Ca-11C Portable Calcium Ion Meter for Dairy & Veterinary Use

The HORIBA LAQUAtwin Ca-11C is a portable, pocket-sized ion meter specifically designed for fast, on-site measurement of ionized calcium levels in dairy cow blood. This innovative device helps veterinarians and dairy farmers quickly detect calcium deficiencies in cows after lactation, allowing for faster treatment and better health management. Unlike total blood calcium tests, the Ca-11C directly measures ionized calcium (Ca²⁺), providing more accurate insights into calcium availability in the bloodstream.

Key Features:

• Ultra-Low Sample Volume: Requires only 0.3 mL for rapid testing.
• Measurement Range: 0.1 to 5.0 mmol/L of ionized calcium.
• Resolution: 0.1 mmol/L for precise readings.
• Two-Point Calibration: Uses 1.25 mmol/L & 2.50 mmol/L standard solutions.
• Auto Standard Recognition: Simplifies calibration for quick and reliable use.
• Backlit LCD Display: High-contrast screen for easy reading in all conditions.
• Waterproof & Dustproof: IP67-rated for durability in field and farm environments.
• Replaceable Sensor: Ensures long-term cost-effective use.
• Auto Power Off & Battery Life: Up to 400 hours of continuous operation with auto shut-off after 30 minutes.
• Compact & Lightweight: 164 x 29 x 20 mm, weighing 55g (including sensor & batteries).

Applications:

• Dairy Farming & Veterinary Use: Detects subclinical hypocalcemia (milk fever) in cows.
• Livestock Management: Monitors calcium levels to prevent metabolic disorders.
• Agriculture & Research: Used for calcium analysis in biological samples.

Simply place a small blood sample onto the flat sensor to obtain instant calcium readings. The LAQUAtwin Ca-11C provides rapid, accurate results, allowing for early intervention in dairy herd management.
