TPC 15 Duo/Trio
- Parallel processing of two (TPC 15 Duo) or three (TPC 15 Trio) different programs
- Rapid biopsy processing
- Up to 660 cassettes capacity
Features

Features
- Multi-protocol parallel processing instrument capable of processing two (TPC 15 Duo) or three (TPC 15 Trio) different runs simultaneously and independently
- Processing of biopsies in less than 90 minutes provides rapid results
- Reduced reagent consumption by moving the specimen instead of the fluid, this powerful instrument uses up to 30% less reagent than commercial fluid transfer processors
- Stainless steel surfaces ensures the Menarini tissue processor is compatible with all reagents commonly used thus leaving the choice to the user
- A capacity of 660 specimen cassettes (TPC 15 Trio) allows for a high throughput
- To protect the user and environment, the instrument is closed by a stainless steel lid
- The TPC15 includes an extraction system for solvent fumes either by a large activated charcoal filter, the use of which is computer monitored or by connection to an external exhaust facility
- The instrument is equipped with heaters and stirrers which are controlled to provide optimum energy saving and improved quality
