EMBEDDING STATION

The NEW Bio-Optica Tissue Embedding Station consists of two modules (Embedding Module and the Cryo Module) to use as an ergonomic workstation for the production of tissue embedded paraffin blocks. The user may position the individual modules for either left-to-right or right-to-left workflow, depending only on personal preference or natural skills.
Work surfaces on the two modules are at the same height so that specimens may be easily transferred from one to the other efficiently.
The embedding unit is composed by the Embedding Module BEC150 and the Cryo Module (BCP170 or BCP230)
BEC150 EMBEDDING MODULE
Paraffin dispenser used to effect the embedding of histological samples quickly and cleanly. The constant temperature of the paraffin basin, of the working plate and the separate heating of the dispensing nozzle assure the optimal working temperature. Thermal unit used for molds heating and paraffin of histological samples.
Structural Features
 Easy-to-clean metal frame and silicon coated wrist pads.
 Paraffin tank with a capacity of 4 litres.
 Large heated aluminum work plate that allows for a smooth workflow, simple operation and precise control.
 Integrated heated wax trimmers at both sides for convenient tissue block trimming.
 The paraffin flow can be released manually by proximity sensor (maintenance-free) as well as via footswitch (optional accessory).
 Controllable paraffin flow rate via knob.
 Rectangular cooled spot 80 x 65 mm for a quick cooling of specimens up to -3 ° C via “Peltier” plate, controlled independently. Big area suitable also for Super Cassettes.
