Milestone BoneSTATION for bone decalcification

Tuesday, 08 April, 2014 | Supplied by: abacus dx


The Milestone BoneSTATION is a workstation for fixation and decalcification of bone tissues, providing the user with complete control of pre-analytical steps. The system is said to improve turnaround times for bone decalcification and provide accurate diagnostic results for morphology and molecular studies.

The product consists of two work platforms complete with glass modules for fixation/decalcification. The front platform, for the decalcification step, features a heating plate with infrared sensors for automatic temperature control up to 50°C and magnetic stirring. The rear platform, for the fixation step, has built-in magnetic stirring.

The station can be used with any type of fixative/decalcifier, even with strong mineral acids (HCl-HNO3), as all contact surfaces are either glass or PTFE polymer. The magnetic stirrer assures homogeneity of temperature throughout the solution. The PTFE cover condenses vapours, generating a reflux of the reagent for consistent and safe protocols at constant pH.

A touch-screen terminal allows the user to optimise, standardise and fully document all the processes. A transparent fume hood is available as an option for operation with strong acids.
