The STA Satellite® continues its progress all over the world!

It all began in 2005, with the release of the STA Satellite® on the French market. This small bench top analyzer allowed easily automating haemostasis in urban laboratories.
Latest arrival in the STA® family featuring all of Stago's expertise, this analyzer gradually established itself as the indispensable complement to the STA® range.

In its two years existence, more than 400 units were installed in France.

Albeit a small instrument, it gathers all the features of a large one… Its technical specifications are as follows:

-    Positive identification  for samples and reagents
-    Viscosity-based detection system
-    Easy-to-use and user-friendly software
-    Work on primary tubes with a loading capacity of
20 samples
-    Range of STA® barcoded reagents
-    In-line handling of 16 reagents
-    Quality Control management
-    200 unitary cuvettes

Strong of its success on the French market, the STA Satellite® was able to cross borders:
In 2008, it arrived in the US, in 2009 in Scandinavia, then in Australia/New Zealand. In 2010, it was launched in Lithuania, Greece and the Maghreb. In 2011, it reached Saudi Arabia, Turkey and very recently Brazil, where the first installation is scheduled for May 2011, in one of the laboratories of the DASA Laboratory Group, the leader on its market.

This quintessence of know-how, combined with high-quality Stago services, accounts for the worldwide success of STA Satellite®.

In the next few days the 1000th STA Satellite® will be installed in New South Wales in one of the Sonic Group's laboratories in Australia.
