It has been designed with the optimum in simple user interface and power efficiency and also features one of the highest capacity wax chambers on the market – holding 5 litres to suit even the highest throughput laboratories.
Key features include:
- 5-litre wax chamber
- Temperature controlled cold plate (-12 to -3oC)

“We have listened to our customers and what they require in their laboratories”, comments Helen Johnstone, Commercial Product Manager at Thermo Scientific. “We have improved both the functionality and reliability of the HistoStar to address all of these requirements. The net result is a class leading embedding system, allowing our customers to focus on what truly matters – Positive Patient Outcomes”.
