The Xmatrx ELITE is an all-in-one and all-at-once fully automated system that provides an adaptable workflow solution for efficiency, productivity and profitability. The system provides standardized complete automation from microtome to microscope in three simple steps (load, click and view) for any slide-based assays such as immunohistochemistry (IHC), in situ hybridization (ISH), fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)and multiplex applications (double and triple stains; IHC/ISH), as well as in situ PCR and micro-RNAISH. Hence, Xmatrx ELITE maximizes testing capacity, minimizes hands-on time, reduces errors and produces consistent results.
