Bone tissue decalcification system LeanDECAL

Decalcification is a crucial step that must be performed before processing to remove the calcium component and optimally prepare the bone tissue for the subsequent stages. Bone marrow specimens are the most analyzed type of bone specimens in AP labs, and since they have a composition completely different from normal bone, they require specialized protocols and dedicated gentle reagents to perform decalcification without altering their quality and integrity. This is where LeanDECAL comes in: an innovative tool that automates both the fixation and decalcification processes. By streamlining these processes, LeanDECAL not only expedites the work ow but also improves consistency and standardization, offering a faster, standardized, and more reliable alternative to traditional manual techniques. Automatic process LeanDECAL offers an automated and standardized approach to fixation and decalcification. Its setup includes a temperature-controlled processing cavity with an integrated magnetic stirrer, ensuring uniform reagent temperature distribution and consistent flow across the bone marrow surface. The system operates autonomously, dispensing reagents into the cavity and returning them to their designated tanks upon completion of each step. The operator only needs to select the most appropriate protocol for the specimens, guaranteeing reliable and standardized results with each cycle. Enhanced Specimen Safety LeanDECAL guarantees specimen safety through a comprehensive range of built-in features*: Temperature sensor: continuously monitors the reagent temperature. Reagent level sensors: control the reagent volume in the cavity.
