Beads & Cleaning kit – Legacy

This product is being phased out and is maintained on our webstore to support existing users. We recommend transitioning to the Beads & Cleaning Kit – Recommended and its associated cleaning and passivation protocols for future workflows.

The kit includes:

  • Cleaning reagent
  • Reducing agent
  • Passivation buffer BSA 1%
  • Passivation buffer Pluronic 5%.
  • Selection of beads

Cleaning reagent and Reducing agent can still be used in current recommended C-Trap workflows, but only for the removal of DNA intercalating dyes and in combination with Alkaline Cleaning Reagent (ACR) – the new reagent for standard cleaning cycles of the microdluidics module of the C-Trap.

For workflows involving intercalating dyes, the Cleaning Reagent and Reducing Agent can also be purchased as add-ons with the Beads & Cleaning Kit – Recommended, which includes ACR to support more effective cleaning and passivation of the microfluidics module.
