The GSL-120 – which has already been shipped and installed at various customer locations – is said to be specifically designed for integration with the Applied Imaging CytoVision system, providing a completely integrated cytogenetic imaging and analysis solution.
According to the company, it is the first slide loader to incorporate high quality image capture using an automated oiling system, an integrated bar code reader, as well as automatic data handling with trainable selection classifiers. Unlike the traditional procedures that require technicians to manually search slides for the best cells, the GSL-120 fully automates this process, thereby providing significant productivity gains to cytogenetics laboratories.
