1.2 Status Quo of Domestic Biochemistry Analyzers

The fully automatic biochemistry analyzer, characterized by high technical content, high accuracy, high precision, high flexibility, and high working efficiency, has become one of the indispensable instruments in the modern clinical laboratory for the increasing testing work. According to the number of detected samples per hour, there are three types of fully automatic biochemistry analyzer, namely low speed, medium to high speed, and high-speed analyzers. Low speed: less than 800, including 200, 300, 400, 600; medium to high speed: 800, 1000, and 1200; high speed: 1600, 1800, and 2000.

Domestically produced chemical analyzers are in fierce competition at low speed, and mainly sold to the hospitals below Grade II. The imported biochemistry analyzers have occupied the high-quality customers such as large Grade Il and Grade Ill hospitals for a long time. Especially in most Grade III hospitals, high-speed fully biochemical analysis instruments are required to complete the daily testing of samples, and these instruments are almost monopolized by foreign companies, since the domestic biochemistry analyzers, especially the domestic 2000-speed biochemistry analyzers have a big gap from the imported products in terms of the product quality, stability, and brand recognition. However, with the implementation of the hierarchical diagnosis and treatment policy, more and more patients are receiving treatment in the primary medical institutions, resulting in a surge in the demand for medical devices in the primary institutions. For the price-sensitive primary market, cost-effective domestic brands have obvious advantages.
