Load the Samples onto Arrays<br />

chapter 4 | 96-Well Plate Protocol 125<br />

This procedure requires 2 operators working simultaneously.<br />

Operator 1 loads the samples onto the arrays; Operator 2 covers the<br />

septa with Tough-Spots and loads the arrays into the hybridization<br />

ovens.<br />

To load the samples onto arrays:<br />

Operator 1 Tasks<br />

1. When the plate reaches 49 °C, slide back the lid on the thermal<br />

cycler enough to expose the first row of samples only.<br />

2. Remove the film from the first row.<br />

3. Using a single-channel P200 pipette, remove 200 µL of denatured<br />

sample from the first well.<br />

4. Immediately inject the sample into an array.<br />

5. Pass the array to Operator 2.<br />

NOTE: The tasks for Operator 2 are listed below.<br />

6. Remove 200 µL of sample from the next well and immediately<br />

inject it into an array.<br />

7. Pass the array to Operator 2.<br />

8. Repeat this process one sample at a time until the entire row is<br />

loaded.<br />

9. Place a fresh strip of adhesive film over the completed row.<br />

10. Slide the thermal cycler lid back to expose the next row of samples.<br />

11. Repeat steps 3 through 10 until all of the samples have been loaded<br />

onto arrays.
