ESTIGEN – THE BEST TOOLS FOR
TISSUE MICROARRAY TECHNOLOGY

Estigen OÜ manufactures tissue microarray instruments originally developed by Beecher Instruments.

TISSUE MICROARRAY INSTRUMENTS

Estigen manufactures manual and automated tissue arrayers.

Manual Tissue Arrayer MTA-1

The Manual Tissue Arrayer MTA-1 allows relatively easy construction of tissue microarrays (TMAs) containing several hundred specimens.

The MTA-1 provides the essential equipment needed to start a productive tissue microarray (TMA) facility. It is an affordable manually operated high-precision arraying instrument. Skilled users can create arrays containing more than 500 samples per slide with this unit.

Automated Tissue Arrayer ATA-27

The Automated Tissue Arrayer ATA-27 is designed for fast, accurate, and reliable construction of high-density tissue microarrays.

The ATA-27 is intended for laboratories requiring higher throughput in array production. After the array layout is planned using dedicated software, the ATA-27 automatically constructs the array block by measuring block heights, retrieving donor tissue cores, creating holes and inserting the cores into the recipient block. 

ACCESSORIES

Four different punch sizes are available to control tissue core size in the array. Accessory items provide manual tissue array users with tools to manage punching depth and support the construction of multiple array blocks.
