5 Using the Agilent 7100 Capillary Electrophoresis System
Capillary Electrophoresis, CE

Vials

You can program a method to use certain vials as the inlet or outlet home vial.
During electrophoresis, the electrodes and the capillary are in these vials. Vial
numbers 1 to 48 or user vials (User 1 to User 10) can be selected. The selection
can be done from the pull-down menu or by typing in the number with the
keyboard. Clicking Add Method Vial allows you to enter vial names which will be
visible in the vialtable.
Figure 22
User vials are numbered from 1 to 10. User vials are placeholders in the
method which are resolved by the sequence table at a later point in time.
Usage of user vials is helpful for method optimization. Various buffer
compositions can be tested with one common method. Creation of methods
with variations of Inlet or outlet home vials can be omitted. Usage of user vials
is also helpful to change buffers in long sequences to avoid over utilization of
the buffer.
Vial numbers below 10 must be typed in with a preceding 0, for example 02 for a vial in tray
N O T E
location number 2, since the vials are numbered with two digits.
