5.11.2 WASHER
MODULES
The
MosaiQ 125
has two independent washer modules to rinse microarrays at various
stages of the process.
Both
MosaiQ Wash Buffer 1
and
MosaiQ Wash Buffer 2
are loaded in the reagent drawer.
Washer
module 1
Washer
module 2
(washer modules 1 and 2 localization)
Function:
Both Washer modules are used to wash the microarray at a precise stage of the
assay (depending on the test performed).
Capacity:
There are two independent Washer modules:
Wash module 1 is connected to the
MosaiQ Wash Buffer 1
and
MosaiQ Wash Buffer 2
.
Wash module 2 is connected to the
MosaiQ Wash Buffer 1
and the system liquid.

.
5.11.3 INCUBATOR
MODULE
The incubator module is located on the lower part of the process modules compartment
of the
MosaiQ 125
.
The incubator module is responsible for moving the microarrays to the different process
modules while maintaining the assay at the required temperature of 35°C ±2°C.
(incubator module)
Function:
The incubator module keeps the assay at the required temperature and moves microarrays
to different process modules. Each position on the incubator module is dedicated to a
specific step of the assay procedure:
Washing
Dispensing of reagents
Imaging
Capacity:
There is one incubation ring (with inner and outer positions) offering 80 positions for
microarrays.
