Embodiment approach 1

[0176] Embodiment 1: A method of operating a tissue processor for processing a tissue sample, the tissue processor comprising: at least one retort for receiving a tissue sample; at least one container, the at least a container for storing a reagent; and at least one sensor arranged for fluid communication with one or both of the at least one container and the at least one reactor for measuring the measurement of the reagent Purity level, said method comprising the steps of: a) directing a reagent from said at least one container or said at least one reactor to said at least one sensor; b) automatically measuring said reagent by means of said at least one sensor c) checking whether the measured purity level meets a predetermined purity level of the reagent associated with the at least one container; and d) automatically determining whether the reagent is suitable for use based on the results of the detection A tissue sample is processed in the tissue processor.

Embodiment approach 2

[0177] Embodiment 2: The method of embodiment 1, further comprising the step of providing said predetermined purity level of said reagent based on reagent data of said at least one container.

Embodiment approach 3

[0178] Embodiment 3: The method of Embodiment 2, further comprising the step of receiving, at the tissue processor, the reagent data for the at least one container from a user.

Abstract

A method of operating a tissue processor for processing tissue samples is provided. The tissue processor includes at least one retort for receiving tissue samples, at least one container for storing areagent, and at least one sensor arranged for fluid communication with one or both of the at least one container and the at least one retort for measuring a measured purity level of a reagent. The method includes the steps of conducting reagent from the at least one container or the at least one retort to the at least one sensor, automatically measuring, by means of the at least one sensor, a measured purity level of the reagent, checking whether the measured purity level meets a predetermined purity level of the reagent associated with the at least one container, and automatically determining, based on a result of checking, whether the reagent is suitable for processing tissue samples in the tissue processor. A tissue processor for processing tissue samples is also provided. A containeris also provided for storing tissue samples for processing in a tissue processor.

Description

[0001] This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 548,638, filed August 22, 2017, the contents of which should be deemed incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0002] The present invention relates to a method of operating a tissue processor and to said tissue processor. The tissue processor includes at least one retort for receiving a tissue sample and at least one container for storing reagents. The invention more particularly, but not exclusively, relates to operating the tissue processor to determine whether a reagent is suitable for processing a tissue sample in the tissue processor. The invention also relates to a container for storing tissue samples for processing in a tissue processor. Background technique [0003] Biological tissue samples, especially histological tissue samples, are often required in the fields of human medicine and veterinary medicine, especially as microscopic preparations for evaluation of cells a...
