For In Vitro Diagnostic Use
INTENDED USE
Beckman's Paragon Cooled Electrophoresis Bridge consists of a cell cover and a cell bridge and is intended for use with the Paragon Cell and the Paragon Power Supply as an integrated assembly for performing electrophoretic separations on Paragon Gels. Each Bridge will accommodate one Gel.
BRIDGE ASSEMBLY DESCRIPTION
The Paragon Cooled Electrophoresis Bridge, Figure 1, consists of two major components: the Bridge and the Lid. The Bridge consists of a curved surface and a reservoir for ice. The Bridge is used to support a Paragon Gel during electrophoresis. lt fits inside the vessel and enables each end of the Gel to extend into an electrolyte reservoir without touching the Center baffle. The Lid fits over the Bridge to cover the reservoir, thus eliminating the possibility of electrical shock and minimizing evaporation. A magnet in the Lid activates the safety interlock on the Power Supply.
INSTALLATION
The Bridge should be visually inspected upon arrival for evidence of damage caused in shipment. lf damage is evident, notify the carrier immediately. The Bridge is shipped ready for use. lt is designed to fit in the vessel and the entire unitor Cellconsisting of vessel, Bridge, and Lid is designed to connect to the Paragon Power Supply.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
A Paragon Cooled Electrophoresis Bridge contains a reservoir which, when filled with water and frozen, acts to remove heat from the Gel during the electrophoresis. A Gel with sample applied is placed on the Bridge and the Bridge is placed in the vessel with the ends of the Gel extending into the electrolyte reservoirs. When
current is applied to the Cell, the Gel acts as a "media bridge" to complete the electrical circuit between both reservoirs. As the current passes through the Gel, the charged proteins migrate and an electrophoretic separation pattern is produced.
Voltage is supplied to each Cell from the Paragon Power Supply only when the Cell Lid is in place. The Lid activates the safety interlock on the Power Supply by means of a magnet mounted in the top of the Lid. Current flow through the Cell is indicated by an illuminated light-emitting diode (LED), at the stations (1 or 2), located on the front panel of the Power Supply, to which the Cell is connected.
OPERATING PROCEDURE
Take the following steps to place each Cell into Operation.
1. Be sure Bridge is clean and dry.
2. Fill Reservoir with 150 mL water.
3. Gently place Lid on Bridge, Figure 2. Be sure to properly align the Lid so that it closes completely.
4. Place Bridge with Lid in place on a level surface in a standard freezer (15°C to 20°C) for at least Tour (4) hours to ensure that water is completely frozen.
5. Prepare each Gel for Operation according to the instructions
which accompany the Paragon Reagent Test Kit in use.
6. Remove Bridge from freezer and allow to stand at room tem‑
perature for live (5) minutes prior to use.
7. Center the Gel over the Cooled Electrophoresis Bridge and gently bend the Gel so that it becomes concave. Be sure to align positive (+) and negative () sides of the Gel with corresponding positions marked on the Cooled Bridge. Insert the Gel edges under Bridge "feet." The slotted area on either side of the Bridge allows for easy insertion and removal of the Gel, Figure 3.
NOTE: Be sure Gel backing, not agarose, is in direct contact with curved cooling surface.
8. Invert Cooled Electrophoresis Bridge and place unit in the vessel containing buffer. Be sure to properly align Bridge so that the air vent is not obstructed.
9. Connect Cell to Power Supply by inserting it directly into the output jacks for position 1 or 2, Figure 4, if using only one Cell. Use both positions for two Cells.
NOTE: The Power Supply will not operate without one or two covered Cells in place.
10. Select the desired voltage by depressing the appropriate pushbutton on the Power Supply.
11. Place the ON/OFF Switch on the Power Supply to the ON position. The ON/OFF Switch will illuminate to indicate direct current voltage supply to the Cell. The proper Cell Indicator Light will illuminate to indicate current flow through the Cell.
12. At the completion of the electrophoretic run, place the ON/OFF Switch to the OFF position; set the Voltage Selector (VOLTS) to the lowest setting, i.e., 50 volts; and remove each Gell from the Power Supply.
13. With Lid attached, remove Bridge from Vessel; turn unit upside down; and remove Gel. Process Gel according to the instructions which accompany the Paragon Reagent Test Kit in use.
14. Remove Lid from Bridge and rinse the assembly with deionized water.

Paragon® DRYER
INTENDED USE
Beckman's Paragon Dryer is intended for use in the normal post-electrophoretic process to dry electrophoretic support media.
DRYER DESCRIPTION
The Paragon Dryer is designed for use atop a laboratory bench or table, Figure 1. The Dryer may also be used in conjunction with an optional Paragon Organizer, Figure 2. The Organizer is a bench-top platform that enables the user to keep the Paragon Power Supply, Incubator, Dryer, and Wet Processor in an orderly functional arrangement. The Organizer is equipped with a power strip that enables the user to connect all the electrical components; i.e., Power Supply, Incubator, and Dryer, into convenient outlets.
The Dryer provides a uniformly distributed air flow through the compartment for drying electrophoresis support media. An illuminating power switch indicates when power is being supplied to the Dryer.
The unit is shipped ready for use.
INSTALLATION
The Dryer should be visually inspected upon arrival for evidence of damage caused in shipment. lf damage is evident, notify the carrier immediately.
The Dryer is intended for use in a laboratory environment where ambient temperatures are in the range of 18°C to 28°C and relative humidity in the range of 15% to 85%. The temperature of the Dryer may vary directly with changes
in ambient temperature. The Dryer control point is set to operate between 60°C and 70°C in ambient temperature. The time required to dry a Gel may vary slightly with the ambient temperature and relative humidity.
Extreme variation from either the ambient temperature or relative humidity may adversely affect operation of the Dryer.
An optional thermometer (Beckman Part 655994) may be used to check the temperature of the Dryer. The thermometer should be placed in the Center of the drying compartment for a minimum of 15 minutes.
The power cord for the Dryer is a three-wire grounded type to oe connected to a properly grounded outlet. A Dryer bearing the Beckman Part 655805 operates at 120 ± 15 volts, 50/60 Hz; Beckman Part 450036 operates at 240 ± 24 volts, 50/60 Hz. The nameplate an the rear panel provides the part number.
CAUTION
THE POWER CORD MUST BE CONNECTED TO AN OUTL.ET THAT WILL ACCEPT THE THREE-PRONGED PLUG AND PROVIDE THE REQUIRED ELECTRICAL GROUND. DO NOT OPERATE THE UNIT FROM A CONNECTION TO ANY TWO-PRONGED ADAPTER. DO NOTUNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCESOPERATE THE UNIT FROM AN OUTLET THAT DOES NOT PROVIDE AN ELECTRICAL GROUND.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The Paragon Dryer features a heating element which allows air from a motor-driven fan to flow through it and be heated before flowing into the drying chamber and out through the
exhaust port to room air. The heater is designed to maintain the operating set point. The design of the Dryer prevents excessive drying of electrophoretic media because thermal run-away is not possible. lf the air flow through the heating element is interrupted, the heater turns off. lf the blower motor overheats, a nonresettable thermal fuse will trip.
