1.2. Designated use
The new HistosMATE unit is an innovative, safe, rapid solution for the efficient cleaning of wax contaminated
racks, moulds and forceps.
HistosMATE has been specifically designed to accommodate Milestone processors racks as well as the
most common conventional histoprocessors racks.
It is of fundamental importance to remember that proper cleaning of the tools and processing racks has
important repercussions on the quality of tissue processing and the duration of the processors. Paraffin in
improperly cleaned processing baskets can cause damage to pipelines, processor valves, and can pollute
reagents.
For this reason, the use of HistosMATE is recommended not only for users of Milestone processors but for
all histology laboratories
HistosMATE is a system that must be operated by trained personnel, such as: laboratory technicians and
pathologists.
The system and its accessories have been engineered for laboratory use (indoor use) and they can therefore
withstand the harshest laboratory conditions.
The Milestone HistosMATE must be operated exclusively with the reagents listed in Compatible reagents
(see chapter 1.7).
