Sigma 2-7 Cyto

Unrefrigerated benchtop centrifuge
Sigma 2-7 Cyto

Specialised in cytology centrifugation

The Sigma 2‑7 Cyto combines the highlights of the Sigma 2‑7 laboratory centrifuge with state-of-the-art cytology centrifugation. This compact centrifuge excels in cytology labs with its perfectly matched accessories for the gentle and quiet depositing of cells on specimen slides and the possibility of repurposing the centrifuge for cell harvesting or processing of blood collection tubes. Along with saving space in the lab, this is a boon in economic terms.

It is ideal for gentle centrifugation in cytology labs to transfer cells to specimen slides for morphological assessment under the microscope. Cytodiagnostics, in which cells from bodily fluids or organs are subjected to microscopic examination to detect malignant cell changes, for example as part of cancer treatment, is a crucial application area for the Sigma 2‑7 Cyto.

What makes the Sigma 2‑7 Cyto so attractive
This versatile benchtop centrifuge features barely audible running noise, a blue LED running indicator, ten program memory locations, and the availability of two curves each for braking and acceleration. Cytology rotors for the preparation of thin-film cell specimens and other swing-out rotors for cell harvesting or the preparation of blood collection tubes can be used.
Up to twelve specimens can be processed at the same time in the closed cytology rotors. There is a choice of cytology rotors designed for the RESOSPIN^® clip system or the Shandon™ clip system. The cytology rotors can be autoclaved and have outstanding safety features for users and the centrifuge. The closed portable rotor protects the user before, during and after centrifugation of the specimens and allows loading in a laboratory fume cupboard or on a bench.
