Reagent Cartridge Overview
The reagent cartridge is a single-use consumable with RFID tracking and foil-sealed reservoirs that are prefilled with clustering and sequencing reagents.
Reagent Cartridge
The reagent cartridge includes a designated reservoir for loading prepared libraries. After the run begins, libraries are transferred automatically from the reservoir to the flow cell.
Several reservoirs are reserved for the automatic post-run wash. Wash solution is pumped from the buffer cartridge to the reserved reservoirs, through the system, and then to the spent reagents container.
This set of reagents contains potentially hazardous chemicals. Personal injury can occur through inhalation, ingestion, skin contact, and eye contact. Ventilation should be appropriate for handling of hazardous materials in reagents. Wear protective equipment, including eye protection, gloves, and laboratory coat appropriate for risk of exposure. Handle used reagents as chemical waste and discard in accordance with applicable regional, national, and local laws and regulations.
