Tissue Microarrays (TMA) Learn More

The TMA Master II is a semi-automated tissue microarrayer by 3D Histech capable of making high quality, precise tissue microarrays (TMAs) by extracting tissue from formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) blocks and combining them into a single empty paraffin wax block.

Slide Digitization (SCAN) Learn More

The Olympus VS120 slide loader system is comprised of an Olympus BX-61 motorized system microscope with 2x, 10x, 20x, 40x and 60x oil immersion objective lenses, as well as an Olympus L100-W automatic system slide loader for batch scanning up to 100 slides.

Histology (STAIN) Leica

The BOND RX automates tests including Immunohistochemistry (IHC), In Situ Hybridization (ISH), Immunofluorescence (IF), Fluorescence In-Situ Hybridization (FISH), multiplexing and more!

Tissue Analysis (HALO) Learn More

The HALO® Image Analysis Platform, by Indica Labs, enables quantitative tissue analysis by using digitized tissues, such as those produced by the Olympus VS120 system. HALO® analysis modules enable cellular detection, protein and mRNA quantification and even H-Score calculation.
