Abstract
A biological specimen preparation system for processing and depositing a portion of a biological specimen from a specimen vial onto a slide. The biological specimen preparation specimen includes a specimen processing unit and an external actuation unit. The specimen vial is connected to an input port on the specimen processing unit and the slide is coupled to an output port. A portion of the biological specimen is injected into the specimen processing unit and prepared by sequentially passing the biological specimen under the control of the external actuation unit through a number of specimen conditioning chambers and a specimen enrichment chamber in the specimen processing unit. The specimen is then deposited on the slide through the output port. To prevent sample to sample contamination, the specimen processing unit is manufactured as a disposable component using injection moulding techniques.
