Genetix has announced that it is achieving global acceptance for its GSL-120 automatic slide-loader system.
The system is installed in hospital and research laboratories in North America, the Middle East, Asia Pacific, Europe and in a commercial clinical laboratory in Japan.
The GSL-120 is used under the control of the company's Cytovision software platform to enable unattended scanning and image capture of samples submitted for cytogenetic analysis.
The combination of the GSL-120 and Cytovision is capable of processing up to 120 slides per batch while feeding images directly to review stations for on-screen analysis by cytogeneticists.
Laboratories are reporting shortened turnaround times and reduced backlogs of patient samples.
The installations are used for a variety of applications, predominantly karyotyping and other brightfield and fluorescence-based applications.
