The Galileo computer assisted TMA instrument with its open architecture allow an easy and simple TMA preparation (also with different paraffin block sizes) producing a digital excel format report and the possibility of data transfer to several Digital TMA Slide Scanners (e.g Aperio.) for complete tracking of the TMA process.

Galileo can be used for TMA, CMA and as a sample picker for nucleic acids (DNA and RNA) extraction and for protein isolation using appropriate fixatives. The tissue cores extracted from precise regions of interest may be dispensed into dedicated vessels for further processing such as DNA, RNA, miRNA and protein extraction. Microfuge vials, strips or microtiter plates may be used, depending on the downstream applications. Parallel analyses on the same specimen can be performed simultaneously.
