INTRODUCTION
1.1 Cytopro Cytocentrifuge Overview
The Cytopro Rotor
The Cytopro rotor holds up to eight sample chamber assemblies, and microscope slides. The
rotor operates on the drive hub of the instrument. The self-sealing, autoclavable rotor is
easy to load in a biological safety cabinet. The lid seals airtight to contain biological hazards.
The low-profile rotor allows easy access during loading. While in the rotor, slide labels are
always visible for easy sample identification.
Sample Chamber Holder
Each sample chamber holder uses spring compression to maintain the seal between
chamber and slide. This helps control the rate of absorption in the standard
chambers.
Depress the release lever to load and unload chamber assemblies and slides. This
lever action cleanly retracts the chamber away from the slide; slides are easily
removed without smearing the cells.
