Mixing recommendations
• 2200 TapeStation instruments are supplied with an optional IKA MS3 vortexer which
includes a 96-well plate adaptor suitable for both 96-well PCR plates and 8-way strips.
• This vortexer is recommended for use with all ScreenTape assays with the exception of
the P200 ScreenTape assay which should be manually vortexed.
• It is recommended that all current 2200 TapeStation system users purchase this
instrument direct from IKA for use with these assays. Please quote part number
4674100 when ordering.
• Agilent Technologies will not sell these parts separately.
• If an IKA MS3 vortexer is not available, please ensure thorough manual vortex mixing —
10 seconds on maximum speed.
