Frequently asked questions

What is a pathology grossing station?

A grossing station is a ventilated stainless workstation where surgical or autopsy specimens are examined, measured, photographed, sectioned and placed in cassettes before tissue processing.

What is the difference between a histology grossing station and a tissue grossing station?

They are the same workstation. Histology labs use the term when grossing feeds tissue processing and embedding; tissue grossing emphasizes specimen handling.

Why is the Downdraft Pathology Grossing Station quote only?

Each unit is built to order for your room, utilities and caseload. A formal quote gives your procurement office an exact price with lead time and freight to your dock.

Do you accept purchase orders and bids?

Yes. We accept purchase orders, provide a W-9, handle tax-exempt certificates, offer net terms to qualified institutions and respond to bids, RFQs and RFPs with specification sheets and submittals.

Is it compatible with Mopec, Mortech or Thermo Fisher equipment?

Yes. We match dimensions, trays, heights and utility connections to the equipment you already run. Send the existing model number with your request.
