Chemical Storage Conditions
Proper storage of chemicals is an important aspect of laboratory management. This Safety Bulletin contains
important information that details the appropriate storage conditions for your PE/Applied Biosystems instrument.
Please follow the storage recommendations given for each reagent. Improper storage of chemicals used on
PE/ABI instruments can impair optimum instrument performance and can compromise reagent bottle integrity
when pressurized under normal instrument operation.
For example, all chemicals should be stored away from direct sunlight. Chemicals exposed to direct sunlight may
have shorter shelf lives and may detrimentally affect instrument performance and final product quality.
Direct sunlight should also be avoided during operation of your PE/Applied Biosystems instrument. Elevated
reagent temperature from direct sunlight will increase reagent vapor pressures, which can alter reagent flow, and in
extreme cases may result in the reagent bottle fracturing due to gas pressurization under normal operation
conditions.
For your convenience, the proper chemical storage conditions for your instrument have been included in this
bulletin.
