Biacore™ T200 Troubleshooting Tips:
For trouble-free operation of your Biacore T200, make sure that your system is kept clean and maintained regularly (e.g: do not take the sensor chip out of its protective cassette, always use fresh buffer and distilled water, etc.)
If your PC is not communicating with the instrument, check that the communication cable is properly connected
Check the accessible tube fittings on the pumps, buffer selector valve and degasser regularly for leaks
Check that there is sufficient buffer in the buffer bottle(s) and water in the water bottle at the start of a run
Use only recommended caps for vials and adhesive foil for microplates. Sample evaporation from uncovered samples will both affect the sample concentration and reduce the volume, possibly resulting in injection of air. Use of unsuitable adhesive foil may block the autosampler needle with adhesive
If any errors cannot be resolved, your instrument likely requires service. We can help in a hurry! Contact ATG.
