Product catalog summary
Overview: The V-Chromer® II is an automated slide stainer designed for standardized staining of microscopy samples. It utilizes pre-programmed protocols and ready-to-use reagents to ensure high-quality sample staining.
Applications: The device is suitable for various laboratory settings, including clinical diagnostic laboratories, cancer centers, microbiological laboratories, and tuberculosis research facilities.
Staining Protocols:
  • Hematology and Cytology: Utilizes the May-Grünwald-Giemsa staining protocol for blood count analysis and cytology studies.
  • Express: Employs the Panoptic staining protocol for rapid analysis of blood, effusion fluid, and other samples.
  • Bacteriology: Uses the Gram staining protocol for bacterial culture staining and differentiation.
  • Tuberculosis Diagnosis: Implements the Ziehl-Neelsen staining protocol for diagnosing pulmonary and extra-pulmonary tuberculosis.
Operation: The V-Chromer® II operates with the V-Stain® reagent kit in three simple steps: open the kit, place it in the container, and run the automated cycle.
Safety and Efficiency: The system includes features such as charcoal filter evaporation protection, drip system to prevent contamination, and automatic reagent drainage. It does not require a water supply, as washing fluid is managed via external containers.
Specifications:
  • Productivity: Up to 100 slides per hour
  • Reagent Vessels: Four solvent-resistant vessels, each with a 200 ml capacity
  • Power: 220 ± 10 % V, 50 Hz, 120 W
  • Size and Weight: 500×450×450 mm, 12 kg
Ordering Information: The document provides product codes for the V-Chromer® II, various V-Stain® reagent kits, and accessories such as slide holders and carbon filters.
