overview

Designed to be the ideal conventional tissue embedder for laboratories of any size, the robust and ergonomic modular system offers you:

Convenience in conventional embedding Colour touchscreen with easy-to-navigate onscreen controls allows easy setup and operation. Graphical user interface enables users to set and display temperatures in all heated and cooled areas with just a touch. Multiple levels of brightness for the LED work light can be adjusted directly from the main screen. Automatic ready and shutdown times for both the Embedding and Cryo Modules are user-programmable by day of the week and even across overnight shifts. Modules can be arranged either left-to-right or right-to-left based on user preference and comfort. The large, nylon surface of the Cryo Module has raised edges to contain moisture and provides ample space for up to 60 embedded blocks.

Features

Safe and reliable embedding with ease Anti-glare, coated work surfaces reduce eye strain and provide better visual identification of tissues. Adjustable LED lighting improves specimen visibility while eliminating workplace clutter from external lighting or lamps. The software-driven Clean Mode provides an easy method for cleaning the forceps wells, reducing opportunities for cross contamination of tissue blocks. The optional Tissue-Tek® TEC™ 6 Magnifying Lens allows users to keep a close eye on even the smallest biopsies to ensure proper orientation.
