Tip: If using a cuvette, make sure to
light path.
–
tap Blank and wait for measurement to complete
–
lift arm and clean both pedestals with new laboratory wipe, or remove
cuvette
4. Measure reference standard:
–
pipette 2 µL reference solution onto pedestal, or insert reference cuvette
(reference solution should contain none of the standard protein stock, see
Working With Standard Curves
–
lower arm to start measurement (or tap Measure if Auto-Measure is off)
–
lift arm and clean both pedestals with new wipe, or remove cuvette
–
if Replicates setting is greater than 1, repeat measurement
5. Measure remaining standards:
–
pipette 2 µL standard 1 onto pedestal, or insert standard 1 cuvette
–
lower arm to start measurement (or tap Measure if Auto-Measure is off)
–
lift arm and clean both pedestals with new wipe, or remove cuvette
–
if Replicates setting is greater than 1, repeat measurement
–
repeat substeps above for each additional standard (when specified
number of standards and replicates have been measured, a message asks
whether to load more standards or begin measuring samples)
–
if finished measuring standards, tap Done (swipe left to view standard
curve)
6. Measure samples:
–
pipette 2 µL sample 1 onto pedestal, or insert sample 1 cuvette
–
lower arm to start measurement (or tap Measure if Auto-Measure is off)
–
lift arm and clean both pedestals with new wipe, or remove cuvette
–
if Replicates setting is greater than 1, repeat measurement
7. When you are finished measuring samples, tap End Experiment.
8. Lift the arm and clean both pedestals with a new wipe, or remove the sample
cuvette.
