Histos 5 Histoprocessor

The Milestone Histos 5 is a fast microwave histoprocessor designed to process samples up to 5 mm thick. It combines microwave irradiation with computer control of power, time and temperature to produce rapidly processed tissue with optimal cytomorphology and improved sectioning properties. Thanks to its unique processing technique, the Histos 5 enables same-day diagnosis, reducing patient stress and providing a greener and safer working environment. Ideal for histology laboratories, it improves productivity and reduces reagent storage and disposal costs.



Description

Milestone Histos 5: Innovation in histoprocessing for fast and accurate diagnosis

The Milestone Histos 5 is a state-of-the-art microwave histoprocessor designed to meet the needs of modern histology laboratories. This system can process samples up to 5 mm thick, offering unmatched flexibility and efficiency. By combining microwave irradiation with precise computer control of power, time and temperature, the Histos 5 produces rapidly processed tissue while preserving optimal cytomorphology and improving tissue sectioning properties.

One of the main advantages of the Histos 5 is its ability to provide same-day diagnostics. This speed of processing significantly reduces stress for patients awaiting results and enables faster and more efficient care. In addition, the Histos 5 contributes to a greener and safer working environment by reducing the amount of reagents required and minimising toxic waste.

The Histos 5 is equipped with state-of-the-art technologies that ensure optimal microwave field homogeneity, thanks to a stirrer mode controller and a stainless steel construction with a ceramic bottom plate. These features ensure exceptional durability and resistance to organic solvents and acids, which is essential for a demanding laboratory environment.

In terms of functionality, the Histos 5 offers remarkable flexibility. It can process 4 to 110 cassettes, allowing for optimal distribution of the workload. Slides processed with the Histos 5 enable pathologists to provide same-day diagnoses, enhancing their role in the management of cancer patients. In addition, the system improves the working environment for laboratory staff and reduces reagent storage and disposal costs.

The Histos 5 is also capable of performing various additional tasks such as decalcification, special stains , coarse hardening , fixation and epitope retrieval. These additional features make the Histos 5 a versatile and indispensable tool for any modern histology laboratory.

The Milestone Histos 5 is a wise investment for laboratories looking to improve their efficiency and accuracy. With its advanced technologies and numerous features, it offers a complete solution for fast and accurate tissue processing, contributing to better patient care and a safer and more sustainable working environment.
