Overview

Convenience and Speed Spun into One

• Process twelve specimens at one time, allowing for several protocols at once
• Accepts all protocols from previous generations of Cytospin cytocentrifuges
• Lid release mechanism allows for one-handed opening and closing
• Removable program card allows for up to nine programs to be logged for fast and convenient reference, and protected program memory stores up to 23 routines for instant recall
• Control panel allows user to control power and time and to monitor speed
• Specimen safety alarm feature reminds users at one-minute intervals to remove specimens, protecting them from air-drying

Simple Principle for Excellent Presentation

• Using centrifugal principles, the cytocentrifuge deposits cells onto a clearly defined area of a glass slide and allows for the absorption of the residual fluid into the sample chamber’s filter card
• Cytocentrifugation constructively flattens cells for excellent nuclear presentation
• The instrument’s spinning action tilts the Cytofunnel sample chamber upright and centrifuges cells onto the deposition area of the slide, creating a cellular monolayer that provides all cell types equal opportunity for presentation
• In the “load” or “stop” position, this unique tilting feature reduces cell loss by preventing residual fluid from coming into contact with the prepared slide

Designed for User Safety

• Only operates when the lid is locked and remains locked during rotation
• Polycarbonate window allows the operator to see the sealed head during cytocentrifugation
