Products
Automated closed‑system formalin dispensing and hermetic sealing unit
Robotic unit that weighs surgical specimens, dispenses calculated formalin volumes and hot‑seals rigid containers inside an aspirated, filtered chamber to reduce operator exposure.
Grossing hood with aspirated enclosure and integrated utilities
Stainless steel grossing workstation with aspirated enclosure, activated-carbon formalin filters, wash system, integrated sinks, pedal controls and electronic monitoring.
Laser slide marking system with LIS integration
Nd:YAG laser system for permanent, ink‑free engraving of slide identifier bands, capable of accepting barcode or LIS-supplied data and printing two slides simultaneously at high throughput.
Automated slide barcode scanner and archiving system
Robotic optical scanner that reads slide identifiers, maps slide positions within trays (up to 720 items), stores images and positions in a database and provides search and history functions with wireless PDA communication.
Automated cassette scanner and archiving system for FFPE samples
Camera-based scanner that reads cassette identifiers, records two-dimensional positions within trays (capacity ~256 cassettes), stores images and supports LIS interfacing and history logging.
Non‑toxic histology reagents for dehydration and clearing
Ester‑based, largely biodegradable solvent formulations designed to replace xylene and reduce steps in processing while preserving tissue morphology and compatibility with IHC and molecular assays.
