Atlantic Biologicals is a comprehensive provider of healthcare solutions.

One of Atlantic Biologicals products and services is the Ves-matic Line. By means of a fully automated analyzer and a especially designed blood collection tube, the Ves-matic system upgrades the quality of the ESR procedure to the standards of modern laboratory medicine and offers a unique combination of safety and walk-away convenience.
All Ves-matic systems read in 20 and 40 minutes the first and second hour results according to the Westergreen method.

The Ves-matic Analyzer is a bench top instrument for ESR measurement, which automatically and homogeneously analyzes the specimens to avoid the inaccuracies caused by inadequate sample preparation and testing tecnique. The Ves-matic analyzer is available in five different models, your choice depends upon your laboratory’s volume of testing.

Main characteristics of the Ves-matic Analyzer:

• Mixing and reading are fully automated and incorporated in the same instrument (except MiniVes)
• Homogeneous and standardized mixing (except MiniVes)
• Photometric infrared reading to avoid interference caused by the presence of lipids or bilirubin in the samples.
• The end point ESR reading is elettronically timed and the actual value of the sedimentation is given.
• The tube has an inclination of 18°
• Results in only 25 minutes
• Temperature correction

The Ves-matic Testing Tubes serve as both primary collection tubes and testing cuvettes. The patented design mantains blood sample in a totally “closed” system during drawing, handling and analyzing procedures, minimizing technician exposure to blood-borne pathogens. Vacu tec tubes are prefilled with 0 .36 mL of sodium citrate providing automatic 4:1 sample dilution. Patient samples are stable in Vacu tec tubes for 4 hours when stored at room temperature, and can be refrigerated up to 12 hours before testing.

Vacu tec tube features:

• Used as a collection tube and testing cuvette. Compatible with any standard needle holder.
• Tube is evacuated and automatically draws about 1.0 mL of blood.
• Pre-filled with 0.36 mL of sodium citrate to provide automatic 4:1 dilution of blood.
• Risk of accidental contamination reduced by use of plastic Vacu tec tube.

The Medi-Dose® Group, known for its innovative solid and liquid oral unit dose packaging systems, has always had deep roots---family roots. This is not surprising since Medi-Dose began as a small family business. Medi-Dose was founded in 1971 when Milton Braverman, a former pharmaceutical company Territory Manager, formed his own company.

While developing Medi-Dose, we were often asked for other products. "Hey…why don't you have...?" "Yo, I need... Can you get it for me?" So, we started EPS® , Inc. We were asked about liquid packaging to complement our solid oral systems. So, we developed TampAlerT®. We were asked about IV preparation. So we developed a line of IV additive disposable accessories. Filters? Yes! Tapes & Labels? Done! Trays, totes and bins? You got it! Bags? Absolutely! And that is how the EPS product line grew to what it is today.

MILT® Makes It Easy!
Medi-Dose Information labeling Technology

MILT® the dynamic new unit dose labeling software for the Medi-Dose® and EPS LiquidDose® packaging systems, offers innovative bar coding, increased security and enhanced medication identification awareness - all for a surprisingly affordable price. Using advanced technology, MILT® by Medi-Dose® makes it easy to achieve optimum accurate, protection and performance for all your solid and liquid unit dose syringe and ampule labeling needs.

The company's I.V. accessories are also highly successful. The firm sees them as a natural advancement of the initial Medi-Dose system. "In essence, I.V. dispensing is a highly specialized form of unit dose," observed Mr. Braverman. "It's the same idea--preparing and administering predetermined amounts of medication for one regular dose or application."

Sensitivity to pharmacy's increased emphasis on I.V. filtration led EPS, Inc. to expand its line of I.V. filters. Three disposable disc filters and two air-eliminating filters are now available. Ranging in pore size from 0.2 to 1.2 microns, the EPS I.V. filters were designed for sterilization, bacterial retention, and particulate removal. The 1.2-micron units are ideal for filtering lipids and removing fungi and particulates without compromising emulsions.
