Artisan™ Link for Special Stains
Artisan™ Link Special Staining System is the next generation of Dako's renowned Artisan™ Staining System, the first instrument to provide true walk-away automation for complex special stains. A new slide barcode reader standardizes and increases the speed of slide processing, reduces errors and improves your laboratory productivity. The software - with lots of new features in an improved graphical user interface and connectivity capabilities - allows Artisan™ Link to be operated either as a stand-alone or in a networked configuration system using a LAN System (DakoLink) or a Laboratory Information System (LIS) providing 24/7 access to stainer processing status.
Optimize your Laboratory Efficiency through Automation
All procedural requirements for staining are controlled by the instrument, delivering excellent quality special stains using Artisan™ reagents, which are packaged in a patented cartridge that provides precision dispensing of reagents for optimal staining quality. Artisan™ Link utilizes a patented reaction chamber, and with its 48-slide capacity it can handle multiple protocols, requiring heat or room temperature in a single run. Artisan™ Link can optimize your laboratory efficiency through automation, dramatically improving productivity and throughput, while its patented kit cartridges and the waste disposal separation will address safety management requirements.
