NextSeq 550Dx Research Mode Instrument Reference Guide
Several reservoirs are reserved for the automatic post-run wash. Wash solution is pumped from the
buffer cartridge to the reserved reservoirs, through the system, and then to the spent reagents container.
WARNING
This set of reagents contains potentially hazardous chemicals. Personal injury can occur
through inhalation, ingestion, skin contact, and eye contact. Wear protective equipment,
including eye protection, gloves, and laboratory coat appropriate for risk of exposure. Handle
used reagents as chemical waste and discard in accordance with applicable regional, national,
and local laws and regulations. For additional environmental, health, and safety information, see the
