General Operating Recommendations<br />
Use only Pyrex (Borosilicate 3.3) bottles. DURAN bottles<br />
dissolve at high pH (>9).<br />
Use highest quality solvents, water, buffers and additives.<br />
Flush buffers out of system with water after use (use 10-20%<br />
organic in water for storage).<br />
Keep all 4 solvent lines primed (use 10-20% organic in water for<br />
unused lines).<br />
Keep seal wash primed.<br />
Re-prime solvent lines before starting.<br />
Use 100 µL mixer for TFA/ACN gradients at low wavelengths.<br />
