Advancing malaria diagnostics

An interview with Professor Thérèsa Coetzer, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, South Africa.

The instrument is highly sensitive – it can go down as low as 20 malaria-infected red blood cells per microlitre.

Professor Thérèsa Coetzer

We talked to Professor Thérèsa Coetzer from the University of the Witwatersrand about the XN-31 analyser – an advanced haematology solution designed to support malaria diagnostics with speed, accuracy and reliability. In this interview, she shares how the XN-31 enables automated detection of malaria-infected red blood cells in under a minute, offering objective results and valuable insights.

Using XN-31 analysers in the laboratories’ malaria work-up offers several key benefits:

  • Rapid, automated analysis with minimal hands-on time
  • Objective malaria-infected red blood cell quantification
  • Integrated CBC parameters to support clinical questions

Watch the full interview to discover how the XN-31 contributes to improved workflow efficiency, diagnostic accuracy and patient care—especially in regions working towards malaria elimination.
