The hematology lab analyzer market in Kenya is dominated mainly by 5 brands from China and a few from the western world. Read down on this page and request a quote as you scroll down.
You need to know this before purchasing any hematology analyzer.
They are:
Basic hematology analyzers are either 3-part hematology analyzers with 20-21 hematology parameters and 3-4 histograms or 5 Parts.
Most clinics and small hospitals can do with these kinds of machines as they are affordable and can do most/all basic hematology tests
These machines have 25 hematology parameters or more and they can do complete blood count (CBC) with differential. Differential parameters are more important in in-patient settings than in clinics.
This is one of the most important factors to consider when purchasing a hematology analyzer, especially in Kenya where reagents can be an expensive consumable.
Open hematology systems are not limited only to the reagents from the original machine manufacturer.
You can use any available reagent and experienced lab technologists can make their own reagents.
Closed Hematology Systems can be a pain especially if the manufacturer reagents are expensive and not locally supported (must be imported).
They tend to be more expensive to own and maintain and should not be the go-to machine if they can be avoided.
However, ALL 5-Part hematology analyzers are closed systems.
These are very affordable open system machines from China.
For a 3-Part hematology machine, you can expect to spend from 450k-550 shillings delivered, installed, and commissioned with a 1-year warranty.

For a 5 part Sinnowa hematology analyzer, a closed system, you can expect to spend anywhere between 750-950k shillings.
Sinnowa is one of the most commonly used hematology analyzers within the East African market.
It tags along with its traits needed to have it in a startup hospital or clinic.
Having average features has however put it on the line as Biobase analyzer is coming up in the market and with advanced features that are prompting users to choose them for faster quality and quantity results.
Biobase hematology analyzers are close competitors to Sinnowa machines and they are fairly common.
For a 3 part Biobase hematology machine, you can expect to spend just about the same as Sinnowa 450-550K shillings installed and commissioned.
For a 5 part Biobase Hematology Analyzer, it may range anywhere between 720,000 shillings and 920,000 shillings in Kenya. Again, get a quote from us and we will be able to advise.
The Biobase analyzer, having an intelligent reagent management function, finds its way among the top-rated hematology machines.
Despite its affordable prices, it offers high-end test results with its easy-to-use functionality..
Dymind machines are better quality, longer-lasting but a little more expensive machines.
Dymind 3-Part hematology machine can cost anywhere between 450k and 600k. Price variation depends on their two variants, DH36 and DH26, both 3 part analyzers.
Dymind 5 Part hematology machine can cost anywhere between 750K and 1 million.
These machines are the most expensive in this classification of common hematology analyzers.
A Mindray 3 part hematology machine can cost anywhere between 500K - 750K, an open system.
5 Part Mindray machine is in the same range with Dymind, 750K - 1M, all-inclusive + warranty
These machines are also quite expensive and their 3 part hematology machine is a closed system.
They used to have an open system but they have recently closed their systems.
They are very high-quality machines, comparable to Siemens and Beckman Coulter machines from the western world.
3-Part Zybio closed system costs around 450K -650K in Kenya depending on where you buy them from.
Zybio 5-Part Hematology Machines closed systems cost around 750-900K, again, depending on who you buy them from.
The Zybio analyzer has great features that include upgraded software to improve measuring the blood. On the other hand, it has few outlets in the local market hence, getting a reagent needs a period of time to allow transportation of consignment.
