The LBP-5196-II Fully Automatic Antigen Retrieval System is designed to streamline slide baking, dewaxing, hydration, and antigen retrieval in pathology laboratories. With high slide capacity, fast heating, precise temperature control, and automated reagent handling, the system helps laboratories achieve efficient and standardized pretreatment before immunohistochemistry and related staining workflows.
Its compact design, independent dual-tank structure, and one-click operation make it suitable for laboratories that require reliable antigen retrieval performance while saving space and reducing manual workload.




High-Throughput Processing
The LBP-5196-II supports a maximum capacity of 96 slides, meeting the workflow needs of hospitals and pathology laboratories with different testing volumes. It can complete the full process of dewaxing, hydration, and antigen retrieval in as fast as 35 minutes, helping improve pretreatment efficiency and shorten overall laboratory turnaround time.
Precise Temperature Control
The system provides rapid heating and real-time temperature monitoring, with a heating rate of more than 8°C per minute. Its precise temperature control helps maintain stable antigen retrieval conditions, contributing to consistent retrieval performance and improved quality control in routine laboratory workflows.
Independent Dual-Tank Design
The LBP-5196-II features two independent heating units that can be used simultaneously or separately. This design helps save reagents and allows laboratories to perform different retrieval conditions at the same time, such as acidic and alkaline antigen retrieval, making the system more flexible for varied experimental requirements.
One-Stop Pretreatment Workflow
The system integrates multiple pretreatment functions into one compact platform, including slide baking, dewaxing, hydration, and antigen retrieval. By completing these steps in a single instrument, it helps simplify laboratory operation, reduce manual transfer, and improve workflow standardization.
Safe Closed Design
The instrument uses a closed, double-layer covered design to help protect laboratory personnel during operation. It avoids the risks associated with high-pressure retrieval systems and supports environmentally friendly dewaxing, providing a safer working environment for routine pathology applications.
Convenient One-Click Operation
The LBP-5196-II is equipped with a Chinese-language touchscreen interface designed for intuitive operation. Users can start the workflow with one click, monitor each experimental step in real time, and automatically add or recover reagents through the system. The high-definition touchscreen can also be operated while wearing gloves.
Automated Reagent Handling
The system connects to six external reagent bottles, which can be used for dewaxing solution, ethanol, and retrieval solution. Reagents are automatically drawn using a peristaltic pump, reducing manual liquid handling and improving workflow consistency.
Liquid Level Monitoring
The reaction tank includes reagent liquid level monitoring to ensure that slides are fully immersed during processing. This helps maintain stable experimental conditions and supports reliable pretreatment results.
Appointment Function
The LBP-5196-II supports delayed start and scheduled operation. Users can set the instrument to run automatically, including overnight operation, helping laboratories manage workload more flexibly and improve daily efficiency.
End-of-Run Voice Reminder
When the process is complete, the system provides a voice reminder to notify users in time. This helps avoid excessive antigen retrieval and supports better process control.
