Description
The Cytyc (Hologic) ThinPrep® 2000 Processor is an automated slide preparation unit that produces remarkably uniform thin-layer slides free of obscuring artifacts such as blood, mucus and inflammation. A gynecologic sample is collected and placed into the ThinPrep 2000 Processor. A gentle dispersion step breaks up blood, mucus, non-diagnostic debris, and then thoroughly mixes the sample. A negative pressure pulse is generated which draws fluid through a ThinPrep Filter that collects a thin, even layer of diagnostic cellular material. The ThinPrep 2000 Processor constantly monitors the rate of flow through the ThinPrep Filter during the collection process to prevent the cellular presentation from being too scant or too dense. The cellular material is then transferred to a glass slide and fixed. The ThinPrep 2000 has an increased improvement in clarity and specimen adequacy achieved within the ThinPrep System. Throughput is approximately 25 samples per hour. Up to 50,000 samples per year can be performed per 8-hour shift. Dimensions are 17.5"w x 15"d x 19"h. Weight is 44 lbs.
