Myr STP 120 spin tissue processor has been developed to meet the requirements of every single laboratory. The technology and the unique processing method of the STP 120 qualifies it as the most successful spin tissue processors ever. With more than 3.500 units installed around the world confirms its leading position. A tissue processor removes water from tissues and replaces it with a medium that allows sectioning. Several methods are used to achieve this. The STP 120 uses a patented technique that combines rotational agitation, shaking and centrifuging. The basket with the cassettes are dipped into the reagent vessel where they turn at 60rpm periodically in each direction. To get optimum results, there is an optional shaking feature, which combines the rotational agitation with an up-and-down movement of the basket (shaking). Finally, the basket is placed over the reagent level and starts whirling at 120rpm in order to minimise reagent carry-over. Myr STP 120 tissue processor can work with one or two baskets (optional). Each basket can process up to 120 cassettes.
