When using XT Starter to cool samples in a CoolRack using a charged XT Cooling Core
• Remove XT Cooling Core from the freezer and place into holder.
• Place CoolRack or CoolSink module directly onto core and allow to equilibrate to 4
o
C
(approximately 10-15 minutes).
• Load samples.
When using a pre-chilled (4
o
C) CoolRack or CoolSink module
• Remove XT Cooling Core from the freezer and place on the benchtop for approximately 10 minutes. When the
temperature indicator displays 1
o
C, XT Cooling Core is ready to use.
IMPORTANT: Failure to allow XT Cooling Core to reach 1
o
C may result in sample freezing.
• Place XT Cooling Core into holder.
• Place the pre-chilled CoolRack or CoolSink module of choice onto the core.
• Load samples.
Care and Cleaning
The XT Starter holder is constructed from a cross-linked closed-cell dense polyethylene foam. The material has
excellent resistance to fluid absorption and abrasion. Maximum temperature exposure: 60°C. Avoid prolonged
exposure to UV light sources. All components (XT Holder and XT Cooling Core) can be cleaned with aqueous
detergents, alcohol, 10% bleach, and acid/base viricide (such as Virkon S) solutions. Rinse with clear water after
using cleaning solutions. Do not autoclave.
