Cleaning Single Cassettes
Single slide cassettes should be clean on a regular basis to
prevent stain deposit build up. Remove cassettes from
analyzer and fill each cassette with methanol. Immediately
discard methanol and allow to air dry before use. Ensure there
is no residual methanol prior to use.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT leave methanol in cassettes for longer
than 10mins.
NOTE: Ensure cassettes are thoroughly dried before use.
Methanol within cassettes can cause haemolysis and outside the cassettes can cause interference
with transport of cassettes.
