Abstract

In a fully automated tissue-smear preparation system, a configuration is disclosed for rapidly drying the slide smears prior to the system staining procedure. Slides bearing smeared tissue samples are briefly immersed into methyl alcohol solution, forcing liquid components in the smear cells to pass out. The smear slides are withdrawn and fanned to evaporate and dry liquid components and alcohol solution on the tissue smears. The process of drying the smear slides is accordingly optimized for the subsequent staining procedure.
