Usage Instructions:
- Prepare Samples:
- Dispense samples with paramagnetic beads into a 96-well U-bottom microplate or a 0.2 mL PCR plate.
- Place the Plate:
- Position the plate securely on the Magnetic Stand-96.
- Allow Separation:
- Let the strong magnets separate the paramagnetic beads from the solution. Separation is complete in approximately 30 seconds.
- Remove Supernatant:
- Carefully remove the supernatant without disturbing the magnetic bead pellet.
- Proceed with Protocol:
- Follow the next steps in your nucleic acid or RNA isolation protocol.
