Testimonial“I have been

in the lab nearly twelve years and this is an awesome

product from one of the best companies I have had the pleasure of dealing with. The stainer is

small, tough, durable, and hassle free. Stains are clean and consistent. Maintenance is reduced to a few seconds a couple of times a

year…it is really that easy! The company listens and provides real customer service. I have used QuickSlide’s product and have had zero problems."

Electro-Optical ProcessThe GramPRO 1™ automatically adjusts for sample thickness, has individual preference controls for color intensity and is operator friendly.

Fast, Hands-Free StainingTotally hands free, each slide is automatically stained, decolorized and counter stained in 4.5 minutes. The GramPRO 1™ has an automatic cleaning cycle, and internal diagnostic software.

Small Compact SizeThe GramPRO 1™ is small enough to fit on any lab counter top.

Minimal Daily MaintenanceEasy and fast. Cleaning is as simple as the push of a button.

Benefits of The GramPRO 1™ Unit Over Manual Gram Staining:• The GramPRO 1™ is not “technique dependent.” You

get consistency no matter who processes the slide. With our patented electronic eye, decolorization is perfect every time.

• There is no cross-contamination. The GramPRO 1™ uses fresh stain for each sample slide.

• The GramPRO 1™ gives you control over stain times to adjust color intensity.

• The GramPRO 1™ allows the user to do other tasks while the slide is processing.

• No technical expertise is required to do a quality Gram stain.

• Minimal reagents are used, thus saving the lab disposal fees. The GramPRO 1™ does not have to be placed by a sink – it can be placed beside a microscope.

A dramatic increase of incidence of mycobacterial disease makes it more important than ever to find rapid methods for identification of AFB organisms. The current fluorescent techniques to identify acid fast organisms in smears take from 20-30 minutes to perform.

Reduced Process TimeUsing the new AFB-PRO™ with Rapid Modified Auramine O, process time is just over two minutes per test. This single slide machine delivers quality and consistency for every test. Counterstain quenches fluorescence of all non-acid fast organisms and debris resulting in a cleaner field of view. It is just as sensitive as other Auramine Stains.

FEATURES• Stains one slide at a time in two

minutes and 15 seconds

• State-of-the-art microprocessor, increases speed and ease of operator use

• Easy-to-use operator prompt

• Soft touch color-coded keypad

• Adjustable stain and decolorizer/quencher times – factory recommends 60 seconds each

• “Cycles Remaining” display – computer monitors reagent and prompts when to reorder

• Injection molded case with built-in reagent platform

• Special formulated reagent kit – 125 tests per kit in one self-contained package

• Operator supplies the DI water rinse

Out Performs Conventional Manual MethodAFB-PRO™ can process 8-10 specimen slides in the time it takes to do one slide by the conventional manual method. Pre-fix your slide, touch keypad, place slide in chamber, select stain; that’s it. The AFB-PRO™ does the rest. Cross contamination is not an issue, since fresh stain is used every time.

No Daily MaintenanceThe AFB-PRO™ uses fresh reagents on each specimen, to eliminate the chance of cross contamination. The chamber in automatically cleaned after each test and requires no daily maintenance. Our automated process eliminates large volumes of reagent fluids going down the sink. You may place this small machine and the reagent pack next to your microscope to improve lab efficiency.

The HemaPRO™ Slide Stainer represents a significant advancement in automated blood smear staining. It is a valuable addition to any laboratory, whether it is the primary stainer used by small hospitals, physicians labs, stat labs, or used as a stat/backup instrument in larger labs. The HemaPRO™ can also be utilized in veterinarian labs for a variety of biological specimens.

New Feature!In addition to the soft agitation before the rinse is drained, HemaPRO™ has an added soft agitation occuring before the buffer is drained. Through extensive testing we have determined this added feature produces a cleaner slide when using our modified Wright's Giemsa stain formula. The unit needs no daily maintenance and only requires a tubing change once or twice annually.

ConsistencyThe HemaPRO™ yields consistent results no matter who stains the slide. Very little training is needed.

FEATURES• State-of-the-art microprocessor, increases

speed and ease of operator use

• Easy-to-use operator prompt LCD display

• Soft touch color-coded keypad

• Adjustable stain and buffer timing –important for consistent lab results with multiple users

• “Cycles Remaining” display – computer monitors reagent and prompts when to reorder more stain

• Injection molded case with built-in reagent platform and small footprint

• Color-coded reagent tubing for ease of set-up

• Special formulated Wright's Giemsa reagent kit – 125 tests per kit in one self-contained package

Small Compact SizeThe HemaPRO™ is one of the smallest automated slide stainers available. It requires only one square foot of counter space including the reagent kit.

Fast StainingThe HemaPRO™ can stain a blood smear in as little as 60 seconds. In addition to the rapid staining, the HemaPRO™ uses fresh stain every time eliminating the mess and concern of cross contamination that is common with other methods.

Performs Multiple Staining ProceduresIn addition to staining peripheral blood smears, the HemaPRO™ has a special program that allows it to stain bone marrow samples. The HemaPRO™ also allows operator to adjust both stain and buffer times.
