Overview

The AELAB TD4Z-XB Cell Smear (Cytospin) Centrifuge is a dedicated instrument for liquid-based cell production and exfoliated cell examination in clinical cytology and research laboratories. The TD4Z-XB is engineered for cytology specimen preparation including secretions, cerebrospinal fluid, hydrothorax, and ascites, enabling consistent smear formation for microscopic diagnosis.

The AELAB TD4Z-XB cytospin centrifuge uses controlled centrifugal force to separate cells from suspension and deposit them onto glass slides. By regulating rotation with microprocessor control and a programmed cytology smear workflow, the TD4Z-XB supports uniform cell and bacterial distribution with reduced overlap, improving staining clarity and diagnostic reproducibility.

⚙️ Design & Construction

• The AELAB TD4Z-XB features a compact bench-top architecture with a Stainless Steel chamber engineered for cytology sample containment
• Microprocessor control stabilizes speed accuracy at ±10 rpm for repeatable cytology slide preparation
• Integrated safety interlock prevents opening of the centrifuge lid during operation for compliant laboratory workflow control
• Emergency lid lock release supports safe access in the event of power loss
• Low-noise mechanical design maintains ≤ 50 dB(A) at maximum speed to reduce laboratory acoustic load

🔬 Working Principle / Testing Method

The AELAB TD4Z-XB Cell Smear (Cytospin) Centrifuge prepares cytology smears by applying centrifugal force to a liquid-based specimen. After separation, cells are driven out of suspension and deposited directly onto the slide surface. The TD4Z-XB workflow supports uniform smear formation, and excess staining solution can be removed through centrifugation, producing even distribution and consistent dyeing results for clinical cytology interpretation.

💡 Key Advantages

• Supports batch processing capacity of 12 × 0.5 mL for routine diagnostic cytology throughput
• Microprocessor-controlled operation improves repeatability in cell concentration and slide uniformity
• Safety interlock system prevents lid opening during centrifuge operation, supporting laboratory risk control
• Emergency lid lock release enables safe access under power interruption conditions
• Low noise performance ≤ 50 dB(A) supports use in clinical and diagnostic environments
• Programmable timing range 0–99 min enables method standardization for cytology protocols

🔗 Connectivity & Integration

• The AELAB TD4Z-XB cytospin centrifuge is microprocessor-controlled for standardized speed and timing regulation.
• Suitable for integration into cytology sample preparation workflows where traceable timing and controlled centrifugal force are required.
• Designed for laboratory bench installation with compact footprint: 450 × 340 × 270 mm.

🧪 Testing Applications

The AELAB TD4Z-XB Cell Smear (Cytospin) Centrifuge is primarily used for exfoliated cell examination and cytology slide preparation in diagnostic and research environments. Typical testing applications include:

• Clinical cytology of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for infection and malignancy screening
