Instructions for Use of Product DG4650.

Proper generation of a spectral calibration file is critical to evaluate multicolor systems with the ABI PRISM^® 3100 and 3100-Avant and Applied Biosystems 3130 and 3130xl Genetic Analyzers. The PowerPlex^® Matrix Standards, 3100/3130, includes individual fragments labeled with four different fluorescent dyes. Each matrix fragment is in a separate tube: one tube contains a fragment labeled with fluorescein (FL), one tube contains a fragment labeled with 6-carboxy-4′,5′-dichloro-2′,7′-dimethoxyfluorescein (JOE), one tube contains a fragment labeled with carboxy-tetramethylrhodamine (TMR), and one tube contains a fragment labeled with carboxy-X-rhodamine (CXR).
