Preparing the reagent cartridge and
flow cell
Chemicals in reagents and waste might cause personal injury through
contact with the skin, eyes, and mucosa. Follow the safety standards of
your laboratory and wear protective equipment (such as laboratory coat,
protective glasses, mask, and gloves) when performing a sequencing run.
Reagent cartridge and sequencing flow cell
Use only the reagent cartridge and flow cell of the manufacturer for
the sequencing process. You can purchase them as needed from the
authorized sales representatives.
Remove the sequencing reagent cartridge from storage and prepare
it for sequencing. For details, refer to relevant reagent kit user
manual.
After preparing the sequencing reagent cartridge, place the
cartridge at 2 ℃ to 8 ℃ (35.6 ℉ to 46.4 ℉ ).
If the sequencing reagent cartridge is not used immediately, store the
cartridge at appropriate temperatures as required. Thaw the cartridge
thoroughly before performing a sequencing run.
Cleaning cartridge and washing flow cell
Washing flow cells and cleaning cartridges are delivered with the
device for regular wash and maintenance wash procedures.
For how to prepare the cartridge, contact the technical support.
And for how to perform a wash, refer to

.
Installing the device
The device can be installed only by the technical support. And
accompanying items such as the QR code scanner, scanner holder,
keyboard, and mouse will be connected.
To ensure that the performance of the device meets the
specifications, the technical support will perform a standard
sequencing run before customer training and use.
