Sample Deck
The Sample Deck is an assembly containing all the commonly required single use components for a
library preparation workflow. It uses a re-usable sample deck frame supplied with the instrument,
along with a reusable deck stand. The sample deck is loaded with a set of single-use disposable
assemblies containing the generic reagents used in all the MagicPrep NGS system workflows.
4.3
Reagent Cartridge
The Reagent Cartridge is a single use consumable containing pre-metered volumes of reagents
required for a specific library preparation protocol.
The reagent cartridges should be stored in a freezer at
≤ -20 °C until required for use.
The MagicPrep NGS instrument reads the 2D bar code on the upper surface of the reagent cartridge,
which determines the specific library preparation protocol to be employed.
