●Workflow

From minimally invasive specimen to digital read-out in a consolidated workflow.

The NGC workflow replaces cell-block preparation and sequential IHC with a single-slide cytology process: cytocentrifugation, cryofixation, eight-channel staining, and hybrid digital review.

WORKFLOW

Five practical steps, one consolidated process.

From sample to slide in under 4 hours.

01

Effusion or FNA

Native or EDTA-collected sample arrives in standard cytology containers.

02

Cytocentrifugation

Cells are concentrated and deposited directly onto a microscope slide.

03

Cryofixation

Cryofixator™ preserves morphology and nucleic acids without cell blocking.

04

Cryoimmunostaining

Cryostainer™ performs multiplex IF with seven antibodies plus nuclear counterstain.

05

Hybrid Microscope

Selected areas are digitized for side-by-side channel and merged-image review.

What changes

Fewer steps, fewer hands, no sample movement.

37% Less manual handling. 75% Fewer touch points. 95% Less sample preparation time.

✓

No cell block

Direct-to-slide cryofixation removes embedding, sectioning, and repeated section consumption from the core workflow.

▽

One workstation

The consolidated workflow reduces manual sample movement and keeps fixation, staining, and review tightly coordinated.

▦

One multiplex slide, 7x more data

Up to eight data points are generated on a single slide instead of distributing markers across serial slides.
