The IDEXX Catalyst One Fully Automatic Veterinary Biochemistry Analyzer is a veterinary diagnostic analyzer designed for in-house clinical chemistry testing in veterinary clinics and animal hospitals. It combines dry-slide reagent technology with automated sample processing to support routine chemistry, electrolyte testing, and selected specialized tests.
The Catalyst One supports chemistry panels such as Chem 10, Chem 15, and Chem 17, along with electrolytes including sodium (Na), potassium (K), and chloride (Cl). Its advanced testing menu includes SDMA, Total T4, C-reactive protein (CRP), phenobarbital, fructosamine, and the urine protein-to-creatinine (UPC) ration.
