BenchMark ULTRA IHC/ISH System
This fully automated instrument offers 30 independent slide drawers and single-piece workflow - supporting the largest menu of 250+ ready-to-use assays.
IVD
For in vitro diagnostic use.
True continuous-access automated IHC/ISH slide
Maximize Capacity
Individual slide drawers enable single piece flow to limit wasted slide positions.
Optimize Efficiency
Continuous access to each slide and protocol flexibility without sacrificing stain optimization.
Improve Processing Time
Decreased preparation time required for slide sorting and matching of reagent.
Quickly Respond to Test Requests
Ultimate Reagent Access (URA) allows immediate processing of urgent and late-arriving samples.
Increase Workflow Flexibility
During a run, users have continuous access to bulks and waste.
The BenchMark ULTRA IHC/ISH System
Unprecedented workflow
IHC, ISH, SISH, Dual Stain and FITC slides can be processed simultaneously, improving turnaround times. The fully automated workflow enables processing of 90 slides in 8 hours, or 120 slides with an overnight run.
Real-time remote monitoring and technical assistance
The BenchMark ULTRA system is equipped with CareGiver remote monitoring technology, offering 24/7 online support for basic troubleshooting and technical guidance. This provides proactive instrument service and maintenance, helping expedite recovery times to minimize system downtime.
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.
