Shandon Cytospin 3 Centrifuge

The Shandon Cytospin was the first device to use low-speed centrifugal force to separate and deposit a monolayer of cells on slides while maintaining cellular integrity.

Excellent Preparations: Produces a monolayer of cells within a clearly defined area. Cytofunnels load in a tilted position to prevent cell loss. They move to an upright position during operation to deposit cells.

Safety: The sealed head protects the user from the danger of aerosoling pathogenic samples. (Load/unload within the safety of a microbiological cabinet.) Cytoclips load and unload easily without contact with the sample.

Flexible: Disposable sample chambers are available in sizes to match the collection requirements of a wide range of samples. Simultaneously spin up to 24 samples in 12 chambers. Also uses microtitre strips. 9-program memory. Programmable acceleration speeds (200-2,000 rpm) ensure protection of all cell types. Disposable chambers are available in sizes from 0.1ml to 6ml to accommodate a wide range of samples.
