MagMAX Express-96仪器也可以使用BindIt软件吗?

是的,MagMAX Express-96仪器可以和装有最新版本BindIt软件v3.3.1.7的电脑相连。这种连接需要一个到USB转化器的串行端口。已有的.kf2 文件在BindIt软件内不能被编辑,但是可以将.kf2文件重写为.bdz文件从而可以被编辑。请参见应用注意(https://tools.thermofisher.com/content/sfs/brochures/KingFisher-BindIT-TechNote-5189009.pdf)了解更多细节。

MagMAX Express-96和KingFisher Flex 磁珠处理仪的磁棒头可以互换吗?

不可以,96孔标准磁棒头和96深孔磁棒头不能互换。但是,两台仪器可以使用相同的磁棒套。

Can I use the same tips and plates for the KingFisher Flex instrument with the 96-well magnetic head and the MagMAX Express-96 instrument magnetic head?

Yes, the KingFisher Flex instrument 96-well magnetic head and the MagMAX Express-96 instrument magnetic head can use the same tip combs and KingFisher plates even though the magnetic heads are different.

Where can I find scripts for the MagMAX Express-96 instrument?

The MagMAX Express-96 protocol scripts can be found on the MagMAX Express protocol page (https://www.thermofisher.com/us/en/home/life-science/dna-rna-purification-analysis/rna-extraction/rna-types/total-rna-extraction/magmax-technology/magmax-particle-processors/magmax-instrument-protocols-scripts.html). If the specific script you are looking for is not located here or on the product page for the MagMAX kit, please contact Technical Support at techsupport@thermofisher.com.

Which software should I use for transferring scripts to my MagMAX Express-96 or KingFisher Flex instrument?

We recommend using the BindIt Software to transfer scripts to the MagMAX Express-96 and KingFisher Flex instruments. The BindIt Software should be used to transfer scripts for all of the Applied Biosystems MagMAX Express and Thermo Scientific KingFisher instruments.

Where can I find the scripts for automated use of the MagMAX mirVana Total RNA Isolation Kit?

You can find scripts for using MagMAX mirVana Total RNA Isolation Kit with the MagMAX Express-96, KingFisher Flex, or KingFisher Duo instrument, on the product page (http://www.thermofisher.com/order/catalog/product/A27828).

How does the KingFisher Flex instrument connect to a computer?

KingFisher Flex uses a USB port, whereas the MagMAX Express- 96 requires a RS-232 port.

If you are using BindIt software v3.3.1.7 you can use it to run existing .kf2 files. You will not be able to edit the .kf2 files in v3.3.1.7.

If you are using BindIt software v4.0 or later, you cannot run or edit existing .kf2 files. To get around this, you can convert the .kf2 files to the BindIt (.bdz) file format and then edit the .bdz file in the BindIt software. Please see the following application note for instructions on how to convert the .kf2 files: (http://www.thermoscientific.com/content/dam/tfs/LPG/LCD/LCD Documents/Application & Technical Notes/Liquid Handling and Dispensing/KingFisher-BindIT-TechNote-5189009.pdf). If you have already converted your .kf2 files to .bdz files, or you plan to convert your .kf2 file to .bdz files, we recommend using BindIt software v4.0 or higher.

Are the magnetic heads for the MagMAX Express-96 and KingFisher Flex magnetic particle processors interchangeable?

No, the 96 well standard and 96 Deep Well heads are not interchangeable between the MagMAX Express-96 and KingFisher Flex instruments. However, the same tip combs can be used for both instruments.
