Cleaning the Electrodes after an Electrophoretic Assay
When the assay is complete, remove the used chip from the bioanalyzer and dispose of it
according to the guidelines established by your laboratory safety officer. Remove the chip
quickly to prevent a buildup of residues from the solutions on the electrodes.
Then perform the cleaning procedure to ensure that the electrodes are clean (i.e., no
residues left from the previous assay). The cleaning procedures are described in detail in
the appropriate Reagent Kit Guide and in the Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer Maintenance and
Troubleshooting Guide.
