What is the primary function of a QX Buffer Tray?

The QX Buffer Tray holds the necessary pre-filled buffers and reagents for automated DNA fragment analysis when used with a Qiagen QIAxcel instrument.

Is this tray compatible with other DNA analysis systems?

No, the QX Buffer Tray is specifically engineered for seamless integration and operation with Qiagen QIAxcel instruments only.

Are the buffers in the tray reusable?

No, these buffer trays are typically designed for single-use or a defined number of runs, after which they are replaced to ensure optimal performance and prevent contamination.

How does the QX Buffer enhance analysis?

The proprietary QX Buffer is formulated to improve the resolution and accuracy of DNA fragment sizing during automated analysis on the QIAxcel system.

What maintenance is required for this tray?

As a consumable, the tray itself requires no maintenance. Proper handling and storage according to manufacturer guidelines are essential before use.

Can I purchase just the QX Buffer separately to refill the tray?

The QX Buffer Tray typically comes pre-filled as part of a kit. Individual buffer components for refilling are generally not offered for this type of integrated consumable.
