Vial Cleaning
To ensure accurate results, all vials should be free
of fingerprints and smudges prior to placing in the
vial block for equilibration. All vials should be
cleaned prior to use.
• Holding the vial by the cap, immerse the lower
portion of the vial (about 2.5 cm) into clean
isopropyl alcohol.
• Remove the vial from the alcohol and gently
wipe the lower portion of the vial by rotating the
vial against a lint-free wipe.
Disposal
• All PCS reagents are non-hazardous and aqueous
based.
• Small quantities may be disposed of in sewer. Large
quantities should be disposed of in accordance with
local, state or federal regulations.
If Reagent Kit has been moved from another location,
depending on the difference in temperature between
the two locations, an hour may be required for
equilibration.
Removing the kit components from the box and
letting them stand in free air will hasten equilibration.
Storage
• The Reagent Kit should be stored at room temperature
(18-28° C).
• Avoid temperatures exceeding 32° C.
• Kits should be stored in the dark to the extent practical.
• Frozen reagents should be brought to room temperature
and inverted several times prior to use.
