Using the 2200 TapeStation System
How to prepare your samples
N O T E
• When pipetting sample buffer, ensure that excess buffer droplets are removed from the
tip before transfer to the sample tubes. Care must be taken due to viscosity of Sample
Buffers.
• When pipetting small volumes ensure that no sample remains within the tip.
• When adding sample buffer to sample, please ensure that they are mixed correctly.
To achieve this, gently mix several times with additional pipetting, then cap the tubes,
mix the samples using a vortex mixer for 5 s and briefly centrifuge to collect the
contents at the base of the tubes. Improper mixing can lead to quantification errors.
• For best results ensure that all reagents are allowed to equilibrate to room temperature
for 30 minutes prior to use.

For successful loading, the sample solution must be placed at the bottom of the tube or
well without any air-bubbles. The 2200 TapeStation will load a sample from a minimum of
3 µL onto ScreenTape.
