The ISE 4000 and 6000 are both equipped with the TCO2 module; an invaluable function that allows for the analysis
of bicarbonates in the blood. This test measures the level of bicarbonates (HCO3-) in a sample of blood or urine. It is
usually ordered in addition to the standard electrolyte panel to measure the severity of an acid-base imbalance in the
blood, determine its origin (respiratory or metabolic) and monitor treatment. A carbon dioxide (bicarbonate) test helps
find and keep track of conditions that affect blood bicarbonate levels, including many kidney diseases, some lung
diseases, and metabolic conditions.

Whereas the majority of biochemistry analyzers measure the concentration of the main ions, such as Sodium,
Potassium, Calcium and Chloride, only a few analyzers, including ISE 4000 and 6000, are equipped with the necessary
module to determine bicarbonate (HCO3-) levels, thanks to the measure of TCO2 or Total Carbon Dioxide, that is to say
