Store a capillary array
WARNING! SHARP The electrodes on the load-end of the capillary array have small, blunt ends that
can lead to piercing injury.
If you remove a capillary array for storage, insert the loading-end of the capillary array and the array tip
in distilled water to prevent the polymer from drying in the capillaries.
Check periodically and add distilled water as needed.
IMPORTANT! If the loading-end of the capillary array and the array tip are not kept submerged in
distilled water, residue can dry and block the capillaries.
