How It Works

Liquid-based cytology with natural sedimentation, from specimen loading through to coverslipping.

Sample Handling

Load primary tubes directly. The system performs automated loading, sedimentation preparation, barcoding, staining and coverslipping within one instrument.

Cross-Contamination Control

Disposable sedimentation chambers — one chamber per sample; four alternating sampling probes with triple cleaning cycles.

Applied Sample Types

Gynecological and non-gynecological exfoliated cytology, including cervical screening (TCT), pleural and ascitic fluids, urine and sputum.

Key Features

High Throughput

Up to 120 slides/hour for high-volume laboratories.

Ease of Use

Random-access loading, LIS/HIS connectivity, on-site fault recovery and power-off memory.

Reliability

Fully automated dripping stain, disposable sedimentation chambers, 100 μl pipetting precision, triple self-cleaning sample probes.

Full Automation

Automatic sample scanning and slide barcoding, automated chamber handling, preparation and staining.
