278 Beckman Coulter Reagents the Way Labs Actually Order Them
If you run a Beckman Coulter analyzer, you already know the small daily friction: you think in panels, but reagents are catalogued by part number. You need the BMP running, not "OSR6221." So you keep a cheat sheet, or you rely on the one tech who has the catalog memorized, and reordering becomes a hunt through SKUs that all look alike.
We built a reference to remove that step. It maps every genuine OEM Beckman Coulter reagent, calibrator, and control we stock to the clinical panel it belongs to, across all four analyzer families, so you can find what you need by the test you run rather than the number you have to remember.
Here is what it covers and how to use it. The full guide is a free download at the end.
What's inside
The guide catalogs 278 genuine OEM Beckman Coulter SKUs, organized into the clinical panels they participate in. It spans both sides of the menu:
-
Chemistry on the AU and DxC families (AU480, AU680, AU5800, and DxC), covering 50 panels from the everyday BMP and CMP through specialty assays.
-
Immunoassay on the Access and DxL families (Access 2, DxI 600, DxI 800, and DxL 9000), covering panels from thyroid and cardiac markers to fertility, tumor markers, and infectious disease.
Each entry carries a compatibility tag, [AU], [DxC], [Acc], or [DxL], so a reagent that runs across multiple instruments is flagged as such, and every panel card lists its reagents, calibrators, and controls together.
Why panel-first instead of part-number-first
This is the part that saves time. A part-number catalog answers "what is OSR6221?" A panel-first guide answers the question you actually have: "what do I need to keep the lipid panel running on my AU680?"
Organizing by panel does three useful things. It lets whoever places the order work from the menu they already know, so onboarding a new buyer takes minutes instead of a quarter. It surfaces the full set for a panel in one place, reagents plus the calibrators and controls that go with them, so nothing gets left off the order. And because the compatibility tags travel with each SKU, you can see at a glance when a single reagent covers more than one analyzer, which matters when you are standardizing across a multi-instrument bench.
The analyzer families at a glance
|
Analyzer family |
Methodology |
Typical throughput |
|---|---|---|
|
AU (AU480 / AU680 / AU5800) |
Photometric / ISE |
400 to 9,800 tests/hr |
|
DxC |
Photometric / ISE |
Mid-volume chemistry |
|
Access 2 / DxI 600 / DxI 800 |
Chemiluminescent (PMP) |
100 to 400 tests/hr |
|
DxL |
Chemiluminescent |
High-volume immunoassay |
The Access and DxL families share most of their reagent footprint, so if you are moving from one to the other, much of what you already buy carries over.
How to use the guide
Three ways, depending on how you work:
-
Find your panel. The guide is alphabetical within each analyzer family, so jump to the panel you run and read off the reagents, calibrators, and controls together.
-
Check the analyzer tag. Confirm the [AU], [DxC], [Acc], or [DxL] tag matches your instrument before you order. Shared SKUs are tagged for every family they fit.
-
Build a standing order. Pull the panels that make up your routine menu into one list, and reorder against it instead of chasing individual SKUs lot by lot.
Genuine OEM, not substitutes
Everything in the guide is genuine OEM Beckman Coulter product: same catalog numbers, original packaging, manufacturer labeling and IFU. Temperature-sensitive items ship cold-chain compliant with loggers, and lot continuity is managed so you are not surprised by short-dated stock. Nothing is private-label or non-IVD, and nothing is substituted without your written approval.
