Thermo Scientific PT Module - The Application Specialist Training at Reference in Antigen Retrieval Our Dedicated Training Facility

Automated dewaxing and heat enduced epitope retrieval


Standardisation in any laboratory is crucial to obtaining high quality and consistent IHC staining. To standardise the manual steps associated with the pre-treatment of slides, Thermo Scientic has introduced the PT Module. The PT Module is designed to simultaneously perform dewaxing and epitope recovery on slides prior to immunostaining. Slides are loaded into the Autostainer racks which t directly into the PTModule. The unit has an integrated computer with touch screen for programming standardised pre-treatment programs. The user can also modify the time and temperature settings to further optimise the results. The PT Module has dual reaction baths so that two individual procedures, each with 24 slides, may be run independently. A dedicated pump is also supplied to allow for safe and easy emptying of the reaction baths. Thermo Scientics proprietary epitope recovery solutions provide for safe, solvent-free dewaxing and improved environmental conditions; whilst the delayed start option allows overnight processing so that the slides are ready and waiting when you start in the morning.
