Procedure:

Collect the blood sample from 3 to 5ml. Centrifuge the blood sample. Keep the seabed test cartage, releasing, and detection buffers at 25 degrees Celsius for at least 30 minutes before the test.
The test procedure with the desk cartridge into the All chambers log. Transfer 50 microliters of releasing buffer into the sample mixing truth Transfer the 50 microliters of the sample using a new step to the sample mining tube containing releasing buffer and mix tube containing well by pipetting 10 times.

Leave the sample in an added tube in the inserting tube block at 35°C for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes add 100 ml of detection buffer using a new pipette tip to the tube containing the releasing buffer and sample mixture. Min well by pipetting ten times, and leave it in the inserting strove lock again at 35 degrees Celsius, for 15 minutes Inant the true block fully to trigger the high chambers timer.

After 15 minutes put out half of the test cartridge from the I chamber on 25 microliters from the whale. mixture dispenser it into the sample well on the test cartridge and insert the test cartridge. new fully leave the sample loaded test cartridge at 35°C or 8 minutes.
