BenchMark ULTRA instrument benefits

Studies have shown that single piece workflow improves laboratory operational efficiency1 and the BenchMark ULTRA system - with its thirty independent slide drawers - helps to optimize laboratory workflow by giving histotechnologists continuous access to slide drawers. Single piece workflow maximizes both instrument capacity and laboratory throughput as it eliminates the need to batch samples. Single piece workflow also provides the flexibility to add time-sensitive slides to any available drawer throughout the day without disrupting staining runs in process.
