Testing performed by our in-house service team:
The Bio-Rad QX200 Droplet Digital PCR system passed all tests and was found to be fully functional:
• We tested the power of the Bio-Rad QX200 Droplet Digital PCR system.
• We established communication with the software.
• We tested the QX200 droplet generator by producing the test sample for the QX200 Droplet Reader.
• We verified the functionality of sample detection with the QX200 Droplet Reader.
• We checked the system through the software controls.
• We performed a thorough system flush.
• We primed the system.
• We executed the test sample run using the QX200 reader for accurate analysis.
• We evaluated the C1000 Touch Thermal Cycler across its entire temperature range for consistency.
• We sealed the plate using the PX1 Plate Sealer.
