Convenient, time saving, consistent, high quality of processed slide for FISH.
Application Area: FFPE slide process for fixed tissue cell FISH study
"The machine processes the FFPE slide pretreatment for FISH. The process is easy to operate and saves time and consistently produces good FISH hybridization. It is convenient to purchase the corresponding solutions. When there is not many slides for processing (maximum 50 slides /rum), the reagent is wasted."
Now you can perform deparaffinization, pretreatment, histology/cytology staining, special stains (G-banding and other), and routine slide washing with a single system. The easy-to-operate user interface of the VP2000/VIP2000 Processor and Upgrade allows the user to enter and save user-defined protocols for various staining procedures and specimen pretreatment procedures.
This flexibility provides your laboratory with an instrument (VP2000) that can be utilized for multiple functions within a single workday. Now with the addition of the VIP2000 upgrade, FISH laboratories have the flexibility to run smaller batch sizes with multiple basin sizes (150mL, 250mL, 500mL) ensuring efficient reagent usage and reduced waste. When used in combination with Universal Pretreatment Reagents, the VP2000/VIP2000 Processor and Upgrade can batch multiple tissue types together thereby reducing overall processing time. As your laboratory adds high-volume FISH testing to your menu of routine services, the VP2000/VIP2000 Processor and Upgrade provides a flexible and cost-effective solution.
VP2000/VIP2000 Processor and Upgrade Advantages
Automated FISH Testing
The VP 2000 Processor, in conjunction with the Vysis Thermobrite System for denaturation/hybridization provides a modular systems approach to automated FISH testing.
