Samples
6.6.1.1 Sample Barcode
Each sample needs to be equipped with a unique identification code. It is recommended to print this
unique code in form of a linear barcode. For the requirements of the barcode please refer to chapter
BARCODES. Attach this barcode to the corresponding sample tube. The barcode must be aligned
in axial direction, i.e. along the length of the tube.
The barcode is constricted to 20 alpha-numeric characters.

Filling the sample drawers
6.6.2.1 Preparing the samples
During the extraction method the CheckExtractor™ pipettes the sample from the sample tube into
the MASTERBLOCK®. It is therefore necessary that the samples are easy to pipette. Please follow
the instructions in the oCheck® DNA Extraction Kit - CheckExtractor™ IFU for preparing the samples
prior use.
Avoid the transfer of cell-clots, since these may plug the pipette tips.
6.6.2.2 Setting-up the samples in the drawer
The system pipettes the samples starting with the leftmost sample drawer (track 20). It takes the
samples from the rear end of the drawer, i.e. the sample deepest inside the CheckExtractor™ is
taken first.
Since the scanner is placed on the right side of the sample drawer, all sample barcodes must be
turned to the right opening in the drawer positions.
!
Be aware that the CheckExtractor™ is able to process any number of samples between 1 and 96. Nevertheless
the oCheck® DNA Extraction kit - CheckExtractor™ allows only 48 or 96 extractions per run. So numbers other
than 48 or 96 will cause loss of reagent material.
