Why a Documentation data base?

The documentation data base is the reference tool that shall provide our customers with documentation on our latest products (system and reagents). This data base allows you to have a fast and continuous access to the latest user information.

What does it contain?

The documentation data base contains HORIBA ABX system documentations (User Manuals, Daily Guides, User Manual Updates , Declarations of conformity, Ouput Format...) as well as documentation of HORIBA ABX produced reagents (Material Safety Data Sheets, reagent leaflets...).

You will find these documents, printable, in a pdf format, or viewable also in pdf format or html.

To view those documents in PDF format you should use the Acrobat Reader which allows anyone to view, navigate, and print documents in the Adobe® Portable Document Format.
