[Histonet] ultrasafe formalin dispense

[Dario Ricca]

Hi Nancy,

I tested 3 formalin dispenser systems for my lab and the ultrasafe was one
of them.
This instrument is very easy to use, is one of the safest and the most
flexible.
It has many sensors that prevent formalin from escaping from the container
that you are filling (we stressed this point with different tests), the
aspiration is very quiet and is always turned on.
It has the possibility to carry 4 collapsible boxes of formalin of 5 L each
(or for examples 3 formalin and 1 dH2O or 2 formalin and 1dH2O and 1 PBS
(not Carnoy!)) at the same time and allows you to know when you need to
change them before it finishes in the way that you can manage easily
the change.
It's really easy to use, you can set some favourite filling protocols (e.g.
1:3, 1:5, 1:10) that you can choose at any time for any sample.
You can manage operators for quality assessment, you can scan your sample
QR code. You can print the ID of the sample on the "report label" (the
report laber is made out of thermal paper not plastic label)

Is the only instrument of the three that you can really push start and walk
away.

The containers are more expensive due to the silicon valve. Check the size
of the instrument before buying, for some laboratories it may be too big.
It has air filters but you can connect to an external aspiration system.

if you need more info please let me know
