Unlike optical systems that measure changes in light transmission (turbidimetry), the Stago Start 4 utilizes a patented . This eliminates interference from lipemic, icteric, or hemolyzed samples.

A small stainless steel ball is placed in a cuvette with the sample. An electromagnetic field causes the ball to oscillate in a pendular motion. Unlike optical systems that measure changes in light
