Flex Ring Magnetic Stand for Opentrons Flex Nucleic Acid Extraction Workstation

1. Core features of the Flex Ring Magnetic Stand 1. High-strength magnets: The Flex Ring Magnetic Stand is equipped with 96 high-strength ring-shaped RuFeB magnets. These magnets are fixed on spring pads and can firmly absorb magnetic beads to ensure that The magnetic beads will not fall off or move during the extraction process. 2. Strong compatibility: The Flex ring magnetic stand is compatible with a range of experimental vessels, including Opentrons PCR hard plates and NEST deep well plates. In addition, it is suitable for various magnetic bead products and protocols with volumes ranging from 10μL to 2mL, providing great convenience to scientific researchers. 3. Automated operation: Combined with other components of the Opentrons Flex nucleic acid extraction workstation, the Flex ring magnetic stand can achieve fully automated operations. This greatly improves experimental efficiency and reduces errors caused by human operations.

2. Application scenarios Flex ring magnetic stand is widely used in automated NGS preparation, extraction and purification of DNA, RNA and protein, and other separation procedures. Flex ring magnetic stands play an important role in molecular biological diagnosis, biotechnology, medical care, food, forensic identification, gene sequencing, protein engineering and other industries.

3. Operation and maintenance 1. Operation guide: Before using the Flex ring magnetic stand, make sure it is properly connected to other components of the Opentrons Flex nucleic acid extraction workstation. According to the experimental needs, select appropriate magnetic beads and experimental vessels. Add the sample to the experimental vessel and place the experimental vessel on the Flex ring magnetic stand. Start the Opentrons Flex nucleic acid extraction workstation and perform automated operations according to the preset program. 2. Maintenance: Clean the Flex Ring Magnetic Stand regularly to ensure that its surface is free of dust and dirt. Check whether the adsorption force of the magnet has weakened, and if necessary, replace it with a new magnetic stand in time. Avoid exposing the Flex Ring Magnetic Stand to extreme temperatures or moisture, which may affect its performance.

4. Precautions 1. When using the Flex ring magnetic stand, the operating procedures should be strictly followed to avoid equipment damage or experimental failure caused by improper operation. 2. The Flex ring magnetic stand is a precision instrument and should be avoided from violent collision or falling. 3. In case of equipment failure or abnormality, please contact the manufacturer or professional maintenance personnel for maintenance in time.

The Flex Ring Magnetic Stand of the Opentrons Flex Nucleic Acid Extraction Workstation is a powerful, compatible and easy-to-operate experimental device. It plays an important role in the automated nucleic acid extraction process, providing scientific researchers with great convenience and accuracy.
