Carl Zeiss has introduced the SlideCollector 48 for its laser microdissection systems. This new instrument has been developed specifically for expression analyses and applications in immunobiology, stem cell research and forensic science.
The new collector for the PALM MicroBeam and PALM CombiSystem enables the optimum combination of non-contact laser capture microdissection (LCM) and AmpliGrid technology. Combined with the RoboMover automatic collection unit, the SlideCollector 48 offers high-purity specimen preparation and direct subsequent analysis with minimum reaction volumes.
The special benefit of the SlideCollector 48 is a simplified work process, as specimen preparation and analysis can be performed on a single carrier, the AmpliGrid. Further examination can also be completed without the need for additional time-consuming transfer.
