FISH Slides Automatic Pretreatment Instrument (TL101)
FISH Slides Automatic Pretreatment Instrument (TL101)
1. Description:
FISH Slides Pretreatment System TL101 is an instrument independently developed and manufactured by HealthCare Biotech that has radically changed FISH slides pretreatment process by reducing difficulties, simplifying operations, shortening the pretreatment time and improving the results quality in the fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) detection process in clinical or pathology laboratories daily operations.
2. FISH Slides Pretreatment System TL101 Advantages
- Workflow efficiency: TL101 offers significant time savings compared to manual processing. The automated system can handle multiple specimens simultaneously, reducing processing time and increasing laboratory productivity and profitability. Manual processing, on the other hand, is a time-consuming and labor-intensive process.
- Consistency and standardization: TL101ensures consistent and standardized results due to its programmed protocol. This reduces the chances of errors, contaminations and variations in processing times and reagents exposure. Manual processing, however, is subject to individual variances and human errors, leading to inconsistent results.
- Quality control: TL101allows precise control over processing conditions, such as temperature, enzymatic digestion, and reagents volume. This enhances the quality of the processed samples and improves the overall reliability of the analysis. Manual processing is highly dependent on the skills and expertise of the individual operator, making quality control more challenging.
- High throughput: TL101 is capable of handling a large number of specimens simultaneously, making it suitable for high-volume laboratories. Manual processing is limited by the manual handling capability of the operator and may require more time and effort for large specimen volumes.
- Cost considerations: Automated systems are generally seen as expensive to purchase and maintain compared to manual processing. However, the increased workflow efficiency and consistency of results lead to cost savings in the long run and TL101 is almost free of maintenance and highly price competitive.
3. TL101 Technical Advantages
- Automatised Running: Efficient time use without watching on during the whole course.
- Simple and convenient: Easy to operate; Automatic reagents preparation.
- Safe: Use Eco-friendly reagents and very limited contact with the operator.
- Improve Detection Quality: Set-up of a benchmark for samples quality control.
- Stability: High quality and standardized results.
- Standardized Process: Efficient pretreatment of samples.
4. TL101 Clinical Advantages
1). Improve FISH quality detection: Effective reduction of manual operation errors and contaminations.
2). Reduce FISH detection difficulties: Automatic sample slides heating, dewaxing and enzymatic digestion to release nucleic acids for qualitative or quantitative detection.
3). Reduce consumption and costs:
- Easy to operate, time-saving, labor-saving and efficient use by minimizing FISH reagents consumption.
- Save technical staff training cycles and related training costs.
4). Increase efficiency and productivity:
- Hybridization success rate is over 98% after sample processing.
- Processing time: 2h45min (maximum when all the functions are selected).
- Processing capacity 1-20 samples simultaneously per cycle with a capacity of 60-100 sample slides per day.
