PERFORMING INHIBITION/ENHANCEMENT TEST

An Inhibition/Enhancement PTS LAL assay is conducted by following the simple prompts

on the PTS instrument. Different dilutions of one (1) sample can be placed in each

sample well to determine the non-interfering dilution or different samples can be placed

in each well of one (1) test cartridge. The following represents a typical assay

procedure:

1. Instrument Operation

x Press the MENU key on the PTS keypad to turn instrument on (Menu 5 turns

instrument off).

x The PTS Reader initiates a “SYSTEM SELF TEST” as it heats up to 37°C –

this takes approximately 5 minutes.

x The PTS Reader displays “SELF TEST OK” and then “INSERT

CARTRIDGE”.

2. Insert the Cartridge

Remove cartridge from pouch and insert with sample

reservoirs facing up into slot at front of the PTS

Reader.

Press cartridge firmly into slot.

Note: Allow the cartridge to come to room temperature

in pouch before use.

3. Enter Required Information

Once the cartridge has been firmly inserted into the PTS Reader, the PTS

Reader prompts the user to enter the following information:

x Enter OID (Operator ID)

x Enter Lot # (Cartridge Lot #)

x Enter Calibration Code (If the Calibration Code for the particular lot # has

already been entered, the reader does not prompt for the code again. (To

Erase all stored lot #’s and corresponding calibration codes, select menu, 2,

then 4 from the initial menu)

x Lot # (Confirms cartridge lot number entered)

x Enter Sample 1 Lot # (Sample 1 is designated as the well on the far left after

cartridge is inserted into the PTS Reader)
