The STP 120 uses a patented technique that combines rotational agitation, shaking and centrifuging*. The basket with the cassettes is dipped into the reagent vessel where they turn at 60 rpm periodically in each direction. To get optimum results, there is an optional shaking feature, which combines the rotational agitation with an up-and-down movement of the basket (shaking). Finally, the basket is placed over the reagent level and starts whirling at 120 rpm in order to minimize reagent carry-over. Myr STP Processor can work with one or two baskets (option). Each basket can process up to 120 cassettes.
