SPECIFICATION

Model: HistoCore Arcadia

DESCRIPTION

The HistoCore Arcadia modular tissue embedding system incorporates two separate components, the Arcadia H heated embedding module and the Arcadia C cold plate. The independent modules offer the flexibility to arrange the embedding workflow in the direction that best suits your laboratory. The HistoCare Arcadia H paraffin dispenser allows for simple operation and precise control; resulting in improved quality, a smooth workflow, reliability and speed of your embedding work. HistoCare Arcadia is a cold plate holding more than 60/65 cassettes on its large working surface. Cooling efficiency is important, so the cold plate was designed with an environment adaptive control module to make sure the operating temperature is always stabilized at -6^oC.
