AUTOMATED DEVICE FOR THE IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL STAINING PROCESS

Abstract

The present invention describes an automated device for immunohistochemical staining, which includes an antibody dispenser for the localization of specific proteins in histological samples. It also has a receptacle with integrated connectors for radial sample distribution to minimize handling and thus prevent alterations in the results. The automated device for immunohistochemical staining incorporates a container with dividers that allows for the placement of different types of reagents for applying dyes to the samples. The present invention includes a control panel with a control module to fully automate sample processing, and the necessary adjustments for starting the process are made via a screen.
