Title:
SPECIMEN PROCESSING SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MODERATING EVAPORATION
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/102161
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A specimen processing system is capable of processing specimens carried on slides. The specimen processing system can sequentially deliver slides and opposables to specimen processing stations. The specimen processing stations can use the opposables to apply a series of liquids to the specimens. The applied liquid can be moved along the slide using capillary action while the specimen processing stations control the processing temperatures.
