Notes
3. Allow the ROI calibration
plate
to warm to room
temperature (approximately 5 minutes).
IMPORTANT! Do not remove an ROI calibration
plate
from its packaging until you are ready to
run it. The fluorescent dye in the wells of the
plate is photosensitive. Prolonged exposure to
light can diminish the fluorescence signal
strength of the plate.
4. Remove the ROI calibration
plate
from its
packaging.
IMPORTANT! Do not discard the packaging for
the ROI calibration plate. The plate can be used
up to three times if it is stored in its original
packaging sleeve.
5. Standard plates only: Vortex the plate for
5 seconds. Do not vortex Fast plates.
(Remaining steps apply to both standard and Fast
plates.)
6. Briefly centrifuge the ROI calibration plate in a
centrifuge with a plate adapter (<1500xg).
7. Verify that the liquid in each well of the
background plate is positioned at the bottom of
the well. If not, centrifuge the plate again at a
higher rpm and for a longer period of time.
