Dissection system of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue section for nucleic acid extraction

摘要

A dissection system has a dissection platform which has a frame, an agitation platform, a tissue section tray, a solution dispenser unit, an airflow drying unit and a waste collection unit and a specimen collector which has a tubular body, a plunger button, a hollow shaft, a piston cylinder, a motor unit, a piston, a piston spring and a piston rod. The agitation platform, the solution dispenser unit, the airflow drying unit and the waste collection unit are disposed on the frame, and the tissue section tray is removably disposed on the agitation platform. The plunger button, the hollow shaft and the piston cylinder are movably inserted in the tubular body. The piston is slidably inserted within the piston cylinder, the piston spring is biased in between the piston cylinder and the motor unit, and the piston rod is connected in between the motor unit and the piston.
