Features
Accepts all protocols from Cytospin 1,
2, and 3.
Redesigned Lid-release Mechanism
allows for one-handed opening and
closing of the outer lid for easy access.
As an added safety measure, the
Cytospin will only operate when the lid
is locked into position. The lid remains
locked at all times during rotation.
The polycarbonate window allows the
operator to see the Sealed Head during
cytocentrifugation.
Excellent safety design prevents
accidental fluid spillage from
damaging the mechanical or electronic
components and allows for easy
disinfecting. It meets stringent IEC
61010 standards for centrifuge safety.
The Cytospin has been synonymous with
cytocentrifugation for over 35 years.
More than 15,000 laboratories worldwide
use this simple, reliable instrument.
It provides economical thin-layer
preparations from any liquid matrix,
especially hypocellular fluids such as
spinal fluid.

Disciplines That Use the Cytospin
Cytology
Hematology/Oncology
Microbiology
Micro-organisms are often present in
low numbers from limited sample
volumes. Cytocentrifugation effectively
spins the micro-organisms onto the slide,
maximizing the yield and presenting
those organisms in a clean, defined
area, allowing for straightforward
morphological identification.
Only a small sample volume is needed
so multiple samples may be run for a
variety of special staining and support
testing. It also concentrates samples
for Gram stains.

Shandon Cytoslides
Coated Slides
Eliminates the need for albumin coating procedures. Saves labor
and resource time.
Eliminates background staining on albuminized, IHC or ISH
processed slides.
Single Cytoslides
Specially made for use with Cytospin
Single Sample Chambers.
A white, 12 mm diameter circle on
the slide defines the area where cells
will be displayed to allow for efficient
and rapid location.
Uncoated slides available with circle
on front or back.
Double Cytoslides
Specially produced for use with Double
Cytofunnel Chambers.
Each specimen is displayed onto the
slide within a circle marked 1 or 2
which corresponds with the Double
Cytofunnel chamber.
