1: What is the purpose of the Tissue Flotation Workstation FM-TFW-A101 in histology labs?
The Tissue Flotation Workstation FM-TFW-A101 is used to flatten and dry paraffin-embedded tissue sections after microtomy. It ensures uniform expansion of sections for accurate slide mounting. This is crucial for producing high-quality slides in histopathology diagnostics.
2: How does the modular design of the Tissue Flotation Workstation FM-TFW-A101 benefit lab workflows?
The Tissue Flotation Workstation FM-TFW-A101 features independently controlled zones: water bath, drying bench, and baking tray. This allows simultaneous processing steps with precise temperature settings. It increases efficiency and supports high-volume sample handling.
3: What is the temperature range of the Tissue Flotation Workstation FM-TFW-A101?
The Tissue Flotation Workstation FM-TFW-A101 offers adjustable temperatures from 30°C to 90°C across all three modules. This range supports optimal section flattening, drying, and wax melting. Automatic temperature control ensures consistency and safety.
4: How many slides can the Tissue Flotation Workstation FM-TFW-A101 process at once?
The Tissue Flotation Workstation FM-TFW-A101 can handle up to 40 slides in the drying area. The baking chamber holds 3 dyeing racks or 2 × 250 mL beakers. This capacity is ideal for high-throughput laboratory environments.
5: Is the Tissue Flotation Workstation FM-TFW-A101 suitable for wax melting tasks?
Yes, the Tissue Flotation Workstation FM-TFW-A101 includes a baking chamber that accommodates beakers for wax melting. It can hold 2 × 250 mL beakers alongside slide racks. This multi-use function supports complete slide preparation workflows.
Tissue Flotation Workstations are specialized laboratory equipment designed for handling paraffin–embedded tissue sections during the slide preparation process. These typically consist of a heated water bath that allows freshly cut tissue ribbons to be gently floated and unfolded before being mounted onto a glass slide. Our Tissue Flotation Workstation features precise temperature control, an anti-corrosive surface, and ergonomic design to ensure optimal visibility and user comfort. These workstations are essential for producing high-quality, artifact-free slides, making them indispensable tools in both clinical diagnostics and research laboratories.
