Ultra-rapid turnaround time
Thanks to a microfluidic technology called FFeX and a pressurized system, incubation times are dramatically reduced by accelerating the reagent flow inside a staining chamber.
Open system
LabSat® Research provides you with many customization options in order to explore the full potential of your research.
High quality stainings
The closed staining chamber allows ultra-rapid and uniform delivery of reagents onto the tissue section, producing homogenous staining across the zone of confinement. Short incubation times limit the exposure of the tissue to harsh conditions and prevents degradation over prolonged assay times.
Compact automation
LabSat® is a Swiss-made automated stainer of small dimensions. This benchtop device brings a solution at the reach of medium and small research laboratories.
THE FLEXIBILITY YOU NEED
LabSat® Research is a powerful research tool that can help you automate a wide range of tests involving tissue incubation protocols, such as IHC, IF and multiplexing, among others. To fine tune your tests, LabSat® offers the possibility to modify protocol steps, select different incubation times or choose your own reagents.
Thanks to LabSat® short turnaround times, you can accelerate the optimization of your incubation conditions and dramatically reduce the overall test time.
The system allows as well the possibility of creating your own Laboratory Developed Tests (LDTs) in order to transfer them from the Research environment into IVD use.

-
Distribution chip
This consumable microfluidic chip is a gateway for reagents to be distributed through the system. It must be replaced every 10 stainings and at the beginning of each day.
Close -
Compressed air-line
The system is pressurized to ensure the hermetic closing of the chamber, responsible for the microfluidic properties that make possible the reduction of incubation times.
Close -
Staining chip
This consumable microfluidic chip forms a closed chamber over the tissue where the staining takes place. It must be replaced after each staining.
