The Beckman ELISE is also suitable for measuring Na, K and either Cl, iCa or
Li. However not in whole blood.

Subject: POCT Lithium
> Dear Heather,
> There are a couple of whole blood analysers that I know of on the market
> which measure whole blood Lithium.
> 1. Roche (formerly AVL) 9180, 9181 these are 3 channel analysers measuring
> Na,K and the third channel is interchangeable and can measure iCa,Cl or
> Lithium. The measurements can be done on either whole blood, serum,
plasma.
> Urine measurements can also be done. The analyser is relatively small and
> runs from a fluid pack making the system ideal for POCT use.
> 2.Bayer also did do electrolyte analyser, 654, which I believe is still
> available and is similar to the above but doesn't have an interchangeable
> 3rd electrode.
> There may be others but these are the 2 I am familiar with.
> Hope this helps,
> Regards
