A mixture of ethanol and supercritical CO2 is used to extract water from the tissues in a highly effective manner. The low viscosity allows for a high diffusion rate and low surface tension. Once the ethanol and water are flushed out with CO2, the tissues are impregnated with paraffin in no time. The Tispa process addresses some of the major trends in histopathology: xylene-free processing, a more efficient workflow on the histopathology lab and superior yield and quality of DNA/RNA to name just a few of them.
The Tispa 2 Tissue Processor has been rated by pathologists as the most reliable in the business and has a 100% success rate in preserving tissue samples.
