The HistoCore PEGASUS Plus Tissue Processor is designed to give every tissue type the treatment it deserves, without compromising turnaround time or quality. It lets you run multiple protocols in parallel, ensuring optimal results for every tissue type. With full tracking of each cassette, it captures cassette ID, quantity & colour user ID, basket ID, and reagent details, delivering a fully integrated workflow without compromising speed or quality.
No compromises on tissue quality
Different tissues need different processing conditions. The HistoCore PEGASUS Plus Tissue Processor is able to run multiple protocols in parallel on a single instrument, delivering the flexibility your lab needs to handle biopsies, large specimens, and fatty tissues simultaneously. Process up to 400 cassettes per run, increasing your capacity by 33% compared to typical single-retort processors, and keep your workflow moving at the pace your lab demands.
Full Track & Trace. 100% of your cassettes
Gain complete visibility with integrated iScan technology. This system captures cassette ID, quantity and colour, along with basket ID, user ID, and reagent information. Every sample is tracked from start to finish, minimising manual documentation and maximising confidence in your results.
Proactive reagent monitoring
A built-in density meter monitors reagent quality and immediately alerts users to incorrect concentrations, protecting tissue integrity at every step. With barcoded reagents, PEGASUS Plus also generates automated exchange reports, recording lot numbers, reagent type, and concentration for easy compliance.
Optimise your workflow with Leica consumables
Leica Paraffin – PEGASUS ParaBlock paraffin melts 22% faster than pellets, reduces spills, and loads effortlessly, giving you a safer, cleaner workflow.
ActivFlo Cassettes – Validated on Leica tissue processors, their advanced lateral vent design maximizes reagent exchange and system performance. Available in 11 colours, with quick-snap lids and easy stacked loading.
Preferred reagents – Colour-coded, barcoded alcohols, solvents, and fixatives reduce errors, simplify inventory management, and support greener processing options (Sub-X, Clearene, or xylene-free IPA protocols).
