Preparing the Reaction Plate
Standard vs.
Fast Plates
IMPORTANT! Make sure that you use the standard Optical 96-Well Plate on the 7500
Real-Time PCR system. Optical 96-Well Fast Plates will not fit into the standard block
correctly and will result in loss of data.
1. Label the reaction plates, ensuring that you include an endogenous control for each
sample type (for example, each tissue in a study comparing multiple tissues). If
samples are spread across multiple plates, each plate must have an endogenous
control. Additionally, every plate must include an endogenous control for every
sample type on the plate.
2. Into each well of the reaction plate, add 50 µL of the appropriate PCR master mix.
3. Keep the reaction plates on ice until you are ready to load them into the 7300/7500
system.
