Fat Extraction step-by-step procedure using the ANKOM
XT15
To perform fat extraction on prepared samples, follow the procedure detailed below.
1.
Turn the instrument power ON.
The Display will briefly show the software version number followed
by the screen to the right.
The factory default solvent shown on the Display is "Pet Ether." However, the
instrument computer will store in memory the last solvent selection made and use
it as the default solvent shown on the Display screen every time the instrument is
ready for a new run.
2. Select the solvent you want to use.
2.1
Press the Down Arrow (
v
) key on the Keypad until the desired solvent is shown on the Display.
2.2 Fill the solvent reservoir as needed.
2.21 Unscrew the Fill Cap.
2.22 Pour solvent into the Fill Port up to the dark blue level mark
on the Solvent Sight Level. (About 500 ml of solvent is
needed to reach the dark blue level mark.) Do not add solvent
up to the top of the Solvent Sight Level tube or it will start
flowing into the Vent Flask.
If using Diethyl Ether or a solvent mixture that includes Diethyl Ether (such as the
Mojonnier Mixture), you will need the O-ring Kit for High Penetration Solvents
(part # X95) to replace the standard O-rings on the top of the Extraction Vessel
and the Valve Kit for High Penetration Solvents (part # X55).
Warning:
Do NOT use Acetone in this instrument because it will cause damage
to the valves.
