Efficiency

• High System Efficiency – ActivFlo System uses a reagent vortex to

actively accelerate processing in two ways: rapid, even-heating on all

sides of the retort; and active reagent distribution with built-in impeller.

• Load and Go – Preformed Parablocks fit easily into the chamber and

do not require topping off.

• Precise Reagent Management –16 reagent bottles and automatic

tracking take the guesswork out of reagent changes.

• Reduce Costs – Lateral vents and V-shaped pores in IP ActivFlo

Cassettes enhance fluidic flow during reagent cycles - eliminating

biopsy pads/sponges and providing up to 25% in reagent savings.1

Productivity

• Lean Workflow – Up to 600 cassettes per run at full capacity; enabling

same-day diagnosis in rapid mode with the patented dual retort design.

• Smart and Reliable – Built-in Reagent Management System calculates

alcohol concentration, decreasing alcohol exchanges.

• Decrease Downtime – Real-time maintenance and monitoring with

RemoteCare.

Flexibility

• Rapid and Conventional Tissue Processing – Continuous parallel

processing to run small and large batches, resulting in high throughput

and improved turnaround time.

• Think Safety – Solid Parablocks option eliminates pellet spills and the

need to transfer molten paraffin.

• Isopropanol / Xylene-Free Option – Eliminates the need for xylene in

tissue processing, reducing related health concerns.

• Maintain Order in your Lab – Clearly label cassettes to track specimens,

protect patients and monitor workflow throughout your laboratory with

CEREBRO Tracking System and Specimen ID.

Using Leica Biosystems’ validated consumables with the Peloris II

allows you to efficiently prepare and process tissue for high‐quality

Routine, Special and IHC/ISH staining results.
