Operation
6.1
Preparation of the buffers and solutions
All buffers and solutions are provided in pre-filled and sealed reaction cups (reagent plates
or strips) depending on the extraction routine and source material. The preparation of the
sample tray is described in detail in each kit manual and in the section "Preparing the sample
trays and inserting them into the InnuPure C16" p. 25.
Follow the instructions described in the preparatory steps within the kit components of the kit
manual. It is recommended to preheat the thermal mixer for some steps of the lysis in ac-
cordance with the kit manual.
6.2
Preparing the sample tray and inserting it into the InnuPure C16
CAUTION! Nickel allergy!
The sample tray is coated with nickel.
IMPORTANT!
Use the priming station to populate the sample tray. The filter tips are longer than the tip
block and would impact against the table top!
Prior to extraction the sample tray must be loaded with the reagent plates and/or reagent
strips of the kit used. In the example the sample tray is populated with a reagent plate and
four reagent strips. When inserting the plates and strips always ensure the correct orienta-
tion!
1.
Move the sample tray into the priming
station and fold the holding-down
clamps at the sample tray upwards.
