2. Rinse or wash the reagent reservoir with water or detergent when
necessary.
3. Finally rinse with distilled and filtered laboratory-grade water.
4. Dry the reagent reservoir before use.
5. Reconnect the reagent reservoir.
The standard 250 ml reagent reservoir (Cat. no. N07489) is made of
clear polypropylene (PP) and can be autoclaved. The autoclaving
conditions of the reagent reservoir are:
1 bar pressure at 121°C for 20 minutes.
A bigger, autoclavable, 1000 ml reagent reservoir (Cat. no. N07490)
with a longer tubing assembly is also available.
Clean the plate carrier (Figure 2–2) when it gets dirty and if you spill
liquids on it during use. To clean the plate carrier, follow the
instructions below.
Caution Clean the plate carrier surface if needed using a soft cloth or
tissue paper soaked in a mild detergent solution (e.g. dishwashing
liquid), soap solution or 70% ethanol. Wipe up spills immediately. Do
not use formaldehyde or strong alkaline solutions.
If you have spilled infectious agents on the plate carrier, decontaminate
according to "Decontamination procedure" on page 80.
Warning Ensure that the bottom of each microplate is dry. Fluid on
the bottom of a microplate may present a contamination hazard. Use
proper laboratory practices when handling any hazardous materials.
Clean the priming vessel (Figure 5–32) once it gets dirty during use.
To clean the priming vessel:
1. Unfasten the priming vessel by sliding it off towards yourself
(Figure 5–32).
