DESCRIPTION
The Tissue-Tek® Prisma®/Film® provides
users with an easy-to-use platform that combines routine staining,
special stain techniques, and coverslipping…all
in one fully integrated system. The Tissue-Tek® Prisma® allows
continuous loading of up to 60 slides at a time with a throughput
of up to 500 slides per hour. It offers easy programming and instant
visual tracking of staining runs with touch-sensitive color screens,
and enables concurrent runs of routine H&E and special stains
protocols. It works just as efficiently for cytology protocols.
And streamlining your daily workflow has never been easier: with
the expanded reservoir configuration, up to 51 stations can be
utilized to run smaller sets of 20 slides at a time for the most
even distribution of slides throughout the day, fitting workflow
patterns for the most demanding labs. The Tissue-Tek® Film® uses
a unique adhesive-backed polymer to protect the slides and provide
long-term stability.
While the Tissue-Tek® Prisma®/Film® maximizes
productivity when used as a combined system through a robotic link,
labs can choose to operate each instrument independently.
FEATURES
- Continuous loading of up to 60 slides per run (up to 500 slides
an hour)
- Combination of three separate work stations for routine H&E
stains, special stain methods, and coverslipping
- Capacity for simultaneous runs of H&E and special stains
- Ability to set multiple loading and unloading stations based
on slide volume
- Program up to 3 stations for continuous loading
- Program up to 5 stations for efficient unloading
- 2 drying stations to reduce potential bottlenecks
- 2 optional heating stations for special stains like PAS, Giemsa
stain, and mucicarmine stain
- Compatible with histology and cytology protocols, including
PAP and non-gyn
- Touch-sensitive color menu screens on the Tissue-Tek® Prisma®
- Adhesive-backed polymer with Tissue-Tek® Film® Automated
Coverslipper
- Automatic transfer of stained slides from the Tissue-Tek® Prisma® to
the Tissue-Tek® Film® xylene drawer through robotic link
- Audible alarm when film supply is low
- Permits integrated operation as a system or use as stand-alone
instruments
