Safety for pathologists

With BLOCKfast, even inadequate cytology specimens can be reported.

Background materials that would make a traditional cytology slide inadequate become clear with BLOCKfast technology, permitting the creation of referable samples.

Common
laboratory equipment

The BLOCKfast method requires 50-mL conical-bottom vials, benchtop centrifuge with associated adapters, and standard histology cassettes

Cytoinclusions in
monolayer or 3D modeling

The sample aggregated in the BLOCKfast matrix can be transferred directly into the histology cassette in monolayer mode or can be shaped by the operator to give desired shape and thickness
