Which blood analysis device for veterinary practice?
Hello, I'd like to purchase a blood analyzer for my practice and am looking for your experience and tips on which devices work best. It should, of course, be inexpensive, maintenance-free if possible, and include the most common readings. The inflammation reading is important to me. Thank you very much in advance.
If anyone is interested in the question: I want to save time and know the results right away, rather than sending the blood to some lab first—even if it seems cheaper.

The halfway good costs, even once 3,000 – 4.000,00 €.
But there is also much cheaper: used

Only for the inflammatory value is the blood reduction https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood Reaction#Determination method
This method should be favourable.
Otherwise, you should make a contract with a veterinary laboratory, as usually the inflammatory value should not be sufficient.
In the longer term, you also need an employee who knows how to work with the laboratory, which is likely to be more expensive than sending them to a laboratory.
Generally, the Idexx devices are simple and reliable. They are not too expensive either.
I don’t think this is a veterinarian…
