Used together, NoemaLife's FDA cleared HALIA middleware and the Labotix^®, Rapid Response Universal Specimen Handling (RRUSH^®) system offer a unique turn key solution for seamless workflow management in clinical chemistry laboratories.

Working live at AACC booth #2230, NoemaLife and Labotix demonstrate how the products can improve laboratory efficiency, compliance and quality control. The two companies are co-marketing this solution in North and South America, Europe and the Middle East.

Andrea Chiapponi, Managing Director of NoemaLife S.p.A., said "HALIA and the Labotix Open Automated Solution provide laboratories with a unique system that can be customised to suit individual requirements. It is not restricted to specific vendors so will appeal to separate labs or multiple labs in different locations that wish to merge. We are excited about the partnership with Labotix and the benefit this brings to our customers."

NoemaLife's HALIA Middleware, now available in the US, uses a powerful rule-based engine to provide a fully functional response to the needs of laboratories during daily workflow management. The complete web-based computerisation system allows central management and connection of every analyser through a single interface on any workstation. HALIA supports the Labotix RRUSH system, which itself enables sorting and delivery of all specimens to all analysers anywhere in the laboratory. When brought together the systems provide greater quality control, reduce operator error and make working with high volumes easier to manage.

John Gustafson, President and CEO of Labotix Automation, Inc said "The partnership between the two companies is an important step in supporting laboratories as they integrate diverse technologies into a single total lab automation solution. Hospitals and laboratories are having to explore innovative processes to reduce costs and increase efficiency. Together we will give customers the opportunity to have a completely flexible system that will be reliably consistent, saving time and money while extending the useful life of the system."
