BOND-III the fully automated IHC/ISH stainer Ttlitem-5,Ttlpcs-5
BOND-III provides you with all of the pieces to solve the diagnostic puzzle quickly and consistently. Maximize your lab space with this compact solution that combines efficiency and organization, allowing you to achieve up to 57% more slide throughput per meter compared to other leading instruments on the market.
- Independently benchmarked clones means quality that Pathologists can trust: pair BOND-III with optimized Novocastra HD BOND reagents and BOND Compact Polymer Detection Solutions.
- Preserve morphology and integrity of precious tissue with the unique Covertile system that allows you to dispense reagents in a highly-controlled and more consistent manner. 91% of customers find the stain quality and reproducibility to be better than the competition.
- Designed with the user in mind, everything from immediate reagent access with real-time measurements/alerts and greater flexibility over the competition to swap out reagents during protocol runs, to the intuitive user interface and case management with three independent trays, makes BOND-III the ultimate team player to meet your lab’s needs.
Description
When Delivering a Case to the Pathologist, it’s the Last Slide that Matters
A complete case means that the last slide is as important as the first. BOND-III helps you deliver the entire case in the shortest amount of time while maintaining excellent standards in quality. Other systems prioritize individual slides at the expense of overall case completion, meaning it takes longer to finalize the last slide in the case.
Make Every Inch of Your Lab Count
Meet the demands of ever-increasing slide volumes with the space you have. BOND-III is not only the smallest freestanding IHC/ISH stainer, it also produces the most number of slides in the least amount of space, allowing you to achieve up to 57% more throughput per meter compared to other leading instruments such as the Ventana BenchMark ULTRA and Dako Omnis.
Your Next Step Illuminated
Never worry about when a bottle needs to be filled or emptied. BOND-III is the only IHC/ISH instrument to illuminate reagent levels with LED backlighting to provide a clear, visual alert should the laboratory need to either top-up a reagent bottle, or empty a waste bottle.
Designed with the User in Mind
The highly visual user interface features easy-to-identify icons, making it faster, easier, and more efficient for staff to execute tasks and avoid errors. In addition, with BOND-III you have immediate access to antibodies, probes, and detection systems with real-time measurements, alerts for reagent management, and greater flexibility over the competition to swap out reagents during protocol runs.
Covertile System – Reduce Waste
The BOND Covertile minimizes the amount of reagent needed to make an IHC slide. It also splits out hazardous waste from standard waste.
Covertile System – Ensure Quality
The BOND Covertile protects tissue morphology and enables gentle and consistent reagent application, unlike competitors who may not use a Covertile at all, or not for all steps of the process.
