6.
Place the filter tips into the two rows with the smaller drill
holes. Place the elution tubes into the wider drill holes at
the edge of the tip block.
Empty sample positions shall not be filled. With the strips,
make sure that for every strip the tips and the elution tube
are in the corresponding positions in the tip block (arrows
in figure on the left)!
7.
Attention
The elution tubes are selected depending on the eluate vol-
ume. Observe the description of the kit!
8.
Open all cavities of the strips and plates with the piercing
tools for 1 or 8 cavities.
Press the piercing tool down as far as it will go to make the
tips pierce through the sealing film and create large open-
ings.
9.
Make sure that all cavities are opened completely (at least
7 mm diameter).
After extraction: Close the elution tubes using lids.
For an extraction run, it is necessary to
always
populate both sample blocks of the
sample tray to ensure that the tray is balanced and to allow for optimum movement of
the tray inside the device to the necessary positions:
If only
extract
ing one sample, insert an adapter with an empty strip or an empty
deep well plate into the second sample block of the sample tray.
If processing more than one reagent strip during the extraction protocol, insert two
adapters into the tray if possible and distribute the strips evenly between them.
If processing all samples in one reagent plate, populate the second sample block
with an empty deep well plate, available at Analytik Jena.
