Principle

样本自动化制备可实现高效、标准化的核酸纯化,将手工操作可能引起的污染降至最低,确保用户安全和可靠的样本处理。

EZ1 Advanced XL配合经验证的EZ1 Kits,从各种样本中纯化DNA、RNA和病毒核酸,经纯化的核酸可直接用于下游应用。简单易用的工作站配合优化的实验方案和工作台设置、以及预制的密封试剂条可简化核酸纯化。

Procedure

灵活性、使用方便

EZ1 Advanced XL为用户带来便利的自动化工作站。提供多种适用于纯化DNA、RNA或病毒核酸的实验方案。EZ1 Advanced XL可在20分钟内纯化1–14个样本。该仪器通过键盘操作,VFD(真空荧光显示屏)上会显示仪器信息。为了方便根据不同样本制备的需求进行调整,可将多至4台EZ1 Advanced XL连接到一个外部电脑(QIAGEN提供),将通量提高至56个样本。

所有处理步骤均由仪器自动完成:包括穿刺试剂条,到洗脱高纯度核酸。无需使用另外的计算机,EZ1 Kits包括所有样本制备所需的试剂和附件。EZ1 Kits提供预装的、直至仪器门关闭开始运行都保持密封的试剂条,降低反应体系构建过程中的污染风险。

适用于多种应用的EZ1 Kits和Advanced XL Cards

EZ1 Advanced XL应用经验证的EZ1 Kits并配合预编在EZ1 Advanced XL Cards上的操作步骤。EZ1 Kits提供各种广泛的应用,包括遗传身份鉴定、法医鉴定、生物医学研究和基因表达分析等(参见下表)。

FAQ

What to do if I get error 24 (Open door in motion) on my EZ1 instruments?

Make sure a correct protocol card is inserted for the corresponding instrument. Protocol cards for BioRobot EZ1, EZ1 Advanced, and EZ1 Advanced XL cannot be interchanged. If you use an incorrect protocol card, you can get error 24.

If you are using a correct protocol card, please contact QIAGEN Technical Service.

FAQ ID -9128

I observe more than normal magnetic bead carryover in my eluates after extraction on EZ1 instruments. What should I do?
  1. Make sure the maximum recommended sample amount is not exceeded.
  2. When using blood samples, make sure no clots are present.
  3. Make sure instrument is connected to a UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) to avoid power surge.
  4. Be sure to lubricate the O-rings of the tip adapters on the plunger unit, every week with the silicone grease (cat. no. 9239334). Refer to the user manual for instructions. Check that the tip adapters do not have excess grease.
  5. Perform a pipetting accuracy test using the appropriate Test Card for your instrument: EZ1 Test Card (cat. no. 9016187), EZ1 Advanced Test Card (cat. no. 9018300), or EZ1 Advanced XL Test Card (cat. no. 9018706).
