Beckman promoted the System 7300's ability to produce aminograms.

Beckman’s System TR, introduced in 1973, was the first automated analyzer for clinical enzymes.

Beckman’s System TR, introduced in 1973, was the first automated analyzer for clinical enzymes.

Beckman first marketed a chloride/CO2 analyzer in 1975.

The instrument simultaneously measured chloride and carbon dioxide. It was used in clinical settings to analyze serum, spinal fluid, and sweat.

This instrument, introduced in 1974, can run both blood glucose and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) analyses.

The Glucose Analyzer was developed by James Sternberg in 1969 and was one of several very successful medical…

Beckman introduced a Microzone Electrophoresis System in 1964 and the Model R-110 Microzone Densitometer in 1967.

Densitometers measure density by scanning electrophoresis media. The other instruments in this image…

The LB-2 Medical Gas Analyzer replaced the LB-1. It measured alveolar CO2, along with nitrous oxide, halothane, ehtrane, forane, various halogenated ethers, and carbon monoxide.

This image is actually two photographs taped together.

This instrument measured density by scanning electrophoresis media. The Appraise debuted in 1984.

The Glucose Analyzer was developed by James Sternberg in 1969 and was one of several very successful medical testing and analysis instruments that Beckman Instruments produced in the 1970s. Its size, speed, and price…

TOXSYS software facilitates the chemical analysis of body tissues.

Medical books and a microscope sit on a desk beside a Beckman TOXSYS terminal. The TOXSYS software facilitates the chemical analysis of body tissues.

First marketed in 1960, the Beckman/Spinco Model 120 Amino Acid Analyzer allowed users to quickly perform amino acid chromatography. This unidentified instrument is likely a contemporary of the Model 120. The woman in…
