Shandon Cytospin® 4 涂片機
產品簡介
The Shandon Cytospin has been synonymous with cytocentrifugation for over 35 years. More than 15,000 laboratories worldwide use this simple, reliable instrument. It provides economical thin-layer preparations from any liquid matrix, especially hypocellular fluids such as spinal fluids and urines.Safe and Reliable ，
The Shandon Cytospin is designed to protect the operator before, during and after sample preparation. Safety is our top priority. The ability to load the Shandon Cytospin Sealed Head in a microbiological cabinet is the ultimate safety procedure.
· Auto-locking, plastic outer lid
· Autoclavable Sealed Head
· Disposable sample chambers with caps
· Safety alarms that protect users and specimens
· Wipe-clean control panel
產品特點
· Process 12 specimens at one time.
· Accepts all protocols from Shandon Cytospin 1, 2, and 3.
· Redesigned Lid-release Mechanism allows for one-handed opening and closing of the outer lid for easy access. As an added safety measure, the Shandon Cytospin will only operate when the lid is locked into position. The lid remains locked at all times during rotation. The polycarbonate window allows the operator to see the Sealed Head during cytocentrifugation.
· Excellent safety design prevents accidental fluid spillage from damaging the mechanical or electronic components and allows for easy disinfecting. It meets stringent IEC 61010 standards for centrifuge safety.
· Pull-out Program Card allows for up to nine programs to be logged for fast and convenient retrieval (erasable ink pen included)
Shandon Cytospin Sealed Head
· One Sealed Head is included with the Cytospin, but many laboratories shorten preparation time by having a second Sealed Head ready for when the first finishes processing.
· Autoclavable, 12-chamber Head seals completely.
Simple Principle for Excellent Presentation Using centrifugal principles, the Shandon Cytospin 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 also constructively flattens cells for excellent nuclear presentation. During operation, the instrument’s spinning action tilts the Shandon Cytofunnels® upright and centrifuges cells onto the deposition area of the slide, giving 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. Simple and Precise Controls
· Protected Program Memory stores up to 23 routines for instant recall and protects from power loss.
· Program Key Pad has “easy-touch" design that allows for easier keystrokes and more intuitive programming.
· Speed window displays the programmed spinning speeds from 200 – 2000 rpm.
· Three Acceleration Control buttons allow the operator excellent flexibility and exceptional protection for fragile samples.
· Time window displays the programmed and remaining run time from 1– 99 minutes.
· Control feature has a standby power saving mode. Displays are also turned on and off by the standby key.
· Safety Alarms include an audible alarm that signals the operator if the Shandon Cytospin Cytocentrifuge is out of balance, outside the speed tolerance, or if the lid is not properly locked. As an extra measure of safety for the user, the unit will not spin if the lid is not locked.
· Specimen safety alarm feature has been added to remind users at one-minute intervals to remove specimens, protect them from “air-drying" and ensure consistent results.
