Description Cellient
The Cellient Automated Cell Block System rapidly creates a paraffin embedded cell block by means of a controlled vacuum to deposit a layer of cells on a filter and infiltrate those cells with reagents and paraffin. The technique processes and embeds the sample in a much shorter time than traditional manual techniques, yet employs the same scientific methodology for the generation and histological analysis of embedded tissue samples.
A Finishing Station is not included, but still available from Hologic.
The Cellient passes the internal tests for Motion, Heat/Cool and Waste diagnostics. However, most of the time it reports an error during startup. This may be due to lack of processing fluids or overdue field service maintenance but as I cannot check this, the equipment is offered at a low price, as if for parts.
Width x depth x height = 762 x 597 x 597 mm, weight 64 kg, voltage 100-240 VAC.
