The Leica BOND-PRIME manual does not explicitly mention which chemicals cannot be sent down the drain. However, it does state that certain chemicals such as xylene, chloroform, acetone, strong acids (e.g., 20% HCl), and strong alkalis (e.g., 20% NaOH) should not be used on BOND-PRIME Processing Modules. These chemicals may require special disposal methods rather than being sent down the drain.

Bulk reagents that are not compatible can cause unsatisfactory performance and damage to the processing module. Refer to Leica Biosystems Melbourne Pty Ltd for information about compatible bulk reagents. Do not use xylene, chloroform, acetone, strong acids (for example 20% HCl), strong alkalis (for example 20% NaOH) on BOND-PRIME Processing Modules.
1.1.1 BOND System ancillary materials and consumable items Leica Biosystems Melbourne Pty Ltd supplies the following ancillary materials for use with the BOND-PRIME Processing Module. To get best-quality stained slides and to prevent damage, do not use alternative ancillary materials.
Can hold up to 10 reagent containers, although some reagent systems have only 6 containers. You can insert additional reagent containers, for example the ancillary BOND-PRIME Hematoxylin (AR0096), into empty locations. All BOND reagent containers and BOND-PRIME reagent systems must be registered on the BOND System Controller before use. See also: 1.6 Reagent Platform...
4.18 Clean the Sump Tray. Before you attempt to move a BOND-PRIME Processing Module, use a spanner to rotate the orange gears on the four wheel assemblies. Raise the central feet to allow the processing module to move freely on its wheels.
