HistosMATE Wax Cleaning System

Product catalog summary
Overview: The HistosMATE Wax Cleaning System is designed to streamline the removal of wax residues from laboratory tools and tissue processor racks. It offers a safe, efficient, and automatic cleaning process, eliminating the need for toxic reagents like xylene.
Specifications: The system operates with a non-toxic solution, MileGREEN, maintained at a constant temperature of 50°C (122°F). The solution is stirred continuously to ensure rapid wax removal, completing the process in just 7 minutes.
Procedures: The cleaning process is initiated with a single button press. The system's smart software manages the cycle, signaling its completion acoustically and indicating when the cleaning solution needs replacement.
Universal Use: The HistosMATE is compatible with Milestone tissue processor racks and those from other manufacturers, making it versatile for various laboratory settings.
Environmental and Safety Benefits: MileGREEN, the cleaning solvent, is an iso-paraffin-based solution that is almost odorless and non-carcinogenic, offering a safer alternative to xylene. It effectively dissolves fats and paraffin without the health risks associated with xylene.
Time and Cost Efficiency: The system reduces reagent consumption and enhances tissue processing productivity by eliminating the need for processor cleaning. It supports continuous operation without maintenance or waiting time.
Company Background: Milestone, founded in 1988 in Italy, specializes in advanced microwave instrumentation for analytical and organic chemistry labs. The company has a strong presence in the medical field, particularly in histopathology, with a focus on innovation and patient care.
