Cytospin: The trusted partner for cytology

Cytospin 4 Cytocentrifuge

For over 40 years, the Cytospin centrifuge has been synonymous with quality, reliability, high throughput and versatility. When combined with ready-to-use Epredia cytology consumables, the Cytospin centrifuge enables labs to produce economical thin-layer preparations from liquid samples, including hypocellular specimens such as cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

• Process twelve specimens at once. The Cytospin offers class-leading capacity, enabling labs to achieve high throughput.
• Quick access to your most commonly used protocols. Removable program card allows for up to nine programs to be logged for fast and convenient reference, and protected program memory stores up to 23 protocols for instant recall.
• Within the sealed head, each Cytofunnel™ sample chamber assembly is tilted forward, optimizing cell recovery by preventing fluid from making contact with the slide.
