Labware Reagents are loaded onto the worktable using the reagent
cartridges. These cartridges are already prefilled with
reagents by QIAGEN.
Several reagent cartridges are accommodated together on
the worktable by a cartridge rack.
Samples are loaded onto the worktable using 2 ml sample
tubes.
Steps which require heating occur on the heating system,
which accommodates the heating positions of the reagent
cartridges.
Purified nucleic acids are collected in 1.5 ml elution tubes.
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE)
This section provides information about disposal of waste
electrical and electronic equipment by users in the European
Union.
The European Directive 2002/96/EC on WEEE requires
proper disposal of electrical and electronic equipment when
it reaches its end of life. The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol
(see below) indicates that this product must not be disposed
of with other waste; it must be taken to an approved
treatment facility or to a designated collection point for
recycling, according to local legislation. The separate
collection and recycling of waste electronic equipment at the
time of disposal helps to conserve natural resources and
ensures that the product is recycled in a manner that protects
human health and the environment.
