Thermo Shandon Cytospin 3 Benchtop Cyto-Centrifuge for Precise Cell Slide Preparation
Product Description
The Thermo Shandon Cytospin 3 is a compact benchtop cyto-centrifuge designed for precise and reproducible cell monolayer deposition on slides, critical for hematology, oncology, cytology, rheumatology, virology, microbiology, and immunochemistry laboratories. Utilizing controlled low-speed centrifugation ranging from 200 to 2000 RPM, it ensures gentle cell processing that preserves cellular morphology and integrity.
Key technical features include:
- Sample volume capacity of 0.5 mL per cytofunnel
- Ability to process up to 24 samples per run depending on funnel size
- Adjustable cycle durations from 1 to 99 minutes
- Ergonomic design with a sealed centrifuge head to minimize aerosol exposure and support biosafety in molecular diagnostics and bioprocessing environments
- Compatibility with multiple disposable cytofunnel sizes and cytoclips facilitating hands-free operation inside biosafety cabinets
- Compact footprint with dimensions 16 x 21 x 9 inches and weighing 35 lbs, ideal for labs with limited bench space
This benchtop centrifuge is widely adopted in clinical diagnostics, molecular biology workflows, and biotechnology research, including molecular cloning and biomanufacturing pipelines requiring high-quality, reproducible cytospin preparations. The low-speed centrifugation technique enhances slide quality for fluorescence analysis and cell imaging applications by ensuring even cell distribution and minimal sample loss.
Each unit undergoes a rigorous preventive maintenance and quality control protocol by The Lab World Group, including rotor inspection and calibration with a tachometer, testing at multiple runs and speeds, and comprehensive cleaning to ensure reliable operation upon delivery. This makes the Cytospin 3 essential in synthetic biology research, molecular diagnostics, and related biomedical engineering labs looking for dependable cell preparation centrifuges for cytological evaluations.
