Hardware Manual: Part Number 10554 Rev C., iQue Operations: iQue Fluids

iQue Fluids

Overview

This procedure explains how to prepare the fluids that are required for iQue operation and how to properly fill the

iQue’s fluid bottles and troughs.

Preparing the Fluids

The iQue requires three special fluids. The first is Sheath Fluid, which is used to hydrodynamically focus the samples.

The second and third solutions are Decontamination and Cleaning Solution. These are always used in combination

and followed by water.

Fluid

Description

Preparation

Sheath Fluid

Part #: 90078

Used to hydrodynamically focus the samples. 1L water* + 1 bottle IntelliCyt Bacteriostatic

Concentrate

Decontamination

Solution

Part #: 90077

A mildly basic solution used to clean and

decontaminate the system.

180 mL water* + 1 bottle IntelliCyt

Decontamination Concentrate

Cleaning Solution

Part #: 90079

A mildly acidic and surfactant solution used to

neutralize the decontamination solution and

clean the system.
