Preparing samples
We recommend that you use the library preparation system of the
manufacturer to prepare samples. For details, refer to the relevant
user manual.
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, and
disposable bouffant cap, protective glasses, mask, gloves, and shoe covers)
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 it 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.
