The Opentrons Flex Deck Expansion Set (4 count) allows you to utilize up to 4 more positions on the Opentrons Flex worktable. The expansions slots are installed to the right of the worktable, acting as positions A4, B4, C4, and D4 and accepting plates, tube racks, and other labware that support SBS dimensions. 

The deck expansion slots are necessary for all high-throughput workflows and can be paired with the Opentrons Flex Waste Chute to maximize the throughput capabilities of the Opentrons Flex.

Principle

This product is based on silica Column purification. The sample is lysed and digested with lysate and protease, DNA is released into the lysate. Transfer to an adsorption column. Nucleic acid is adsorbed on the membrane, while protein is not adsorbed and is removed with filtration. After washing proteins and other impurities, Nucleic acid was finally eluted with low-salt buffer (10mm Tris,pH9.0, 0.5mm EDTA).

Advantages

• Fast – several samples can be extracted in 40 minutes (after digestion)
• High purity – purified DNA can be directly used in various downstream applications
• Good repeatability – silica technology can obtain ideal results every time
• High recovery – DNA can be recovered at the level of PG
• Sufficient components – lysozyme, protease K, RNase A and glass beads

Storage and Stability

Proteinase K should be stored at 2–8°C upon arrival. However, short-term storage (up to 12 weeks) at room temperature (15–25°C) does not affect their performance. The remaining kit components can be stored dry at room temperature (15–25°C) and are stable for at least 18 months under these conditions. Buffer ATL may precipitate at low temperature. Dissolve it by 37℃ water bath.
