Description
The TP1020 Tissue Processor offers you automation of fixation, dehydration, and infiltration of histological tissue samples. This tissue processor uses reagent stations, wax baths, fixatives, and alcohol for gentle specimen processing with a high level of specimen safety. The wax baths of this semi-enclosed benchtop processor can be filled with either wax pellets or paraffin wax. Embedding cassettes are placed inside the tissue basket and moved from station to station, moved up and down while at each station to ensure proper agitation, and then pausing for 60 seconds to allow excess to drip off, minimizing carryover.
The Leica TP1020 Tissue Processor can handle a maximum of 100 cassettes and is digitally controlled from the upfront display panel. Operations are shown in real-time, through an LCD screen, that lets users decide whether to operate manually or automatically. In the event of a power failure, specimens within this automatic tissue processor are protected, even overnight, samples remain immersed in their station until power is restored and the process can resume. If theres an extended power failure, samples in critical excess immersion will be displayed.
