不是，处理体积指的是24孔深孔板内可以装入的最大体积。这包括结合缓冲液的体积和磁珠体积，所以当扩大反应体积时，一定要确保总体积不超过5mL。
这种情况有时会发生，但是这不会影响产量，因为样本已经从磁珠上被洗脱下来了。
如果没有向磁棒套架插入磁棒套，则程序不会开始运行。
将软布或纸巾用温和的去垢剂、肥皂水或酒精润湿，然后擦拭磁力棒。
可以通过运行“维护 (Maintenance)”菜单之下的“更换磁头 (Change magnet)”程序实现，使用“上 (up)”和“下 (down)”按钮进行选择。
The KingFisher Flex磁体是使用非常稳定的材料制成的。磁场不会变弱。不过，极端的机械外力或加热可能会对磁体造成损坏。
注：务必使KingFisher Flex的磁棒头远离其他磁棒或其他磁体。磁体相互接触会引起严重损坏。不行，我们强烈推荐您使用MagMAX板或KingFisher板，因为它们是专为配合KingFisher Flex磁棒套同时使用而设计的，以达到最佳效果。其它制造商生产的板子可能与KingFisher Flex加热模块不兼容。它们还可能引起意料之外的问题，例如可能会由于不同的孔容积和板底高度而引起交叉污染。

Any KingFisher 96 Deep-Well plate indicated as being sterile is purity certified for DNA, RNase, DNase, PCR inhibition, and endotoxins. The non-sterile KingFisher deep-well plates are not tested for nucleic acid adsorption, but they are made from a polypropylene resin that is considered to be "low" binding for biomolecules.

We have not tested the maximum centrifugation speed for the KingFisher 96 deep-well plates, so you will need to test this on your own. As a starting range, the recommended speed for similar plates is 2,000-5,000 x g, with the highest recommended speed being 5,000 x g.

We do not recommend autoclaving these plates. They are made of polypropylene, but can warp when exposed to high temperatures like the ones used for autoclaving. If you need sterile plates and combs for your workflow you can purchase the sterile KingFisher 96 deep-well plate and tip comb (Cat. No. 97002820).

The KingFisher Flex instrument with the 24 Deep-Well magnetic head can process larger volumes for each sample (up to 5mL total volume) compared to the KingFisher Flex instrument with the 96 Deep-Well 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.
The KingFisher-96 DeepWell plates Cat. No. 96040460 (sterile) and Cat. No. 95040450 (non-sterile) can be used on the MagMAX Express-96 as an alternative to the MagMAX Express-96 DeepWell plates (Cat. No. 4388476)
The following catalog numbers would be a suitable alternative: 95040460, A48305, 95040455 and A48424.
Yes, we recommend using KingFisher 96 deep-well plate (Cat. No. 95040450, 95040460, or 95040455).
The total well volume for a KingFisher 96 deep-well plate is 2 mL.
No, KingFisher Plastics for 96-deep well format are not autoclavable. They won't melt, but they will get deformed.
The Kingfisher Plastics for 96 deep-well format are recommended for one-time use only, and we don't recommend reusing these products.

Yes, depending on the kind of protocol and head that is used, the following consumables will have to be purchased:
- KingFisher 96 deep-well plate (Cat. No. 95040450)
- KingFisher 96 deep-well plate, sterile (Cat. No. 95040460)
- KingFisher 96 tip comb for deep-well (Cat. No. 97002534)

- KingFisher 96 tip comb (Cat. No. 97002524)
- MicroAmp Clear Adhesive Film (optional) (Cat. No. 4306311
No, the processing volume refers to the maximum volume that can be held in the 24 Deep Well plates. This incorporates the volume of binding buffers and beads, so when scaling up reaction volumes, it is important to make sure that the total volume does not exceed 5 mL.
No, once a protocol was stopped, it will restart from the beginning. The extraction procedure can either be finished manually by using a magnetic stand, or a modified version of the original KingFisher Flex script would have to be created that starts off at the point where the run was stopped.
Set up the protocol on the BindIt software. After the first 8 plates are done, the instrument will pause and instruct you to switch out the plates.
The transport locks are only necessary when relocating the instrument.
We strongly recommend that you maintain the specified volumes within the defined limits to avoid spillover and to help ensure the best performance at the most efficient level.
This happens sometimes but it will not affect the yield because the sample has been released from the particles.
If the starting material is too viscous, the magnetic rods will not be able to collect the particles. Dilute the sample and check that the sample is properly homogenized/lysed. Adding low amounts of detergent will improve the collection of magnetic particles as well. Quickly centrifuge the plate to sediment the particles to the bottom of the plate.
The protocol will not start without the tip combs inserted into the tip comb holder.
Wipe the magnetic rods with a soft cloth or tissue paper soaked in a mild detergent solution, soap solution, or alcohol.
The heating block warms up at the rate of about 10°C per minute, so it will take about 6 minutes.
Both deep-well plates and KingFisher 96 plates can be used during the same run. Therefore, it is possible to start the processing by using larger volumes (in a deep-well plate) and elute the purified sample to a smaller volume (in a KingFisher 96 or MagMAX 96 standard plate).
This can be done by running the Change magnet protocol under the Maintenance menu using the “up” and “down” cursor keys.
The KingFisher Flex magnets are made of material that is very stable. The magnetic field will not get weaker. However, extreme mechanical force or heating can cause damage to the magnets.
Caution: It is very important to keep the KingFisher Flex heads away from each other and from other magnets at all times. Clashing together of the magnets may cause serious damage to the magnets.
KingFisher Flex uses a USB port, whereas the MagMAX Express- 96 requires a RS-232 port.
No. Protocols cannot be transferred back from the instrument to the computer. Protocols need to be previously stored in the BindIt or KingFisher software to make edits.
No, manufactured protocols are locked for editing, but they can be renamed using the ‘save as' function and edited as a new version.
For nucleic acid extraction, we recommend using our MagMAX kits and MagJET kits. Other magnetic beads should work well as long as they are 0.5 to 10 µm in size. However, you will have to write your own KingFisher protocols using the Thermo Scientific BindIt software and validate/optimize the protocol on your own.

Yes, this can be done by sample splitting. Set the protocol so that the magnet will collect samples from multiple wells before continuing to the next step. Be sure not to overload.

Yes, reaction volumes can be scaled up, and all other volumes (i.e. wash volumes) will have to be increased by the same fold difference. It is generally not recommended to scale up reaction volumes more than 2-fold unless the plate's volume capacity will allow it.
No, we strongly recommend that you use the MagMAX plates or KingFisher plates since they were specifically designed to be used with KingFisher Flex tip combs to attain maximal performance. Plates from other manufacturers may not be compatible with the KingFisher Flex heating blocks. They may also cause unexpected problems, such as cross-contamination, due to the divergent well volume and bottom height of the plate.
