Slide Staining Systems
Automatic systems for staining histological and cytological specimens
Slide Staining Systems
Automated staining systems are designed for automated staining of histology and cytology slides using specific reagents for immunohistochemistry (IHC) and in situ hybridization (ISH) in in vitro diagnostics (IVD). Modern autostainers perform the complete cycle — deparaffinization, antigen retrieval, staining and counterstaining — without operator involvement, ensuring standardized and reproducible results. Besides IHC and ISH, the platforms support routine H&E staining, Papanicolaou staining and special histochemical stains. They are supplied together with detection systems and reagent kits: OptiView DAB, ultraView Universal DAB, ISH probes (SISH/CISH), as well as diagnostic kits for cytology — for example CINtec PLUS (p16/Ki-67 dual staining) for triage of HPV-positive patients.
