Ask our AI about this Product
POP-4, POP-6, and POP-7 are conveniently offered in easy to use pouch packages, POP-4 separation matrix is optimized for HID/forensic applications. POP polymers dynamically coat the capillary wall to control electro-osmotic flow. Their definite quality and uniform consistency eliminate guesswork and help to ensure reproducibility. POP Polymers are specifically formulated to separate DNA fragments of a known size range at a desired resolution and run time.

POP-4, POP-6, and POP-7 are conveniently offered in easy to use pouch packages with multiple sample size formats. The POP-4 separation matrix is optimized for HID/forensic applications. 

Easy to use: Pre-formulated and in a single use pouch, which not only saves time but also ensures reliability and consistency
Include radio frequency identification (RFID) label: easy to track important information such as part/lot number, samples remaining, and expiry dates (displayed on software dashboard)
Robust formulation: formulated for sequencing and fragment analysis applications
Replenishable: alow capillaries to be used multiple times

Reproducible Results
POP polymers dynamically coat the capillary wall to control electro-osmotic flow. Their definite quality and uniform consistency eliminate guesswork and help to ensure reproducibility. POP Polymers are specifically formulated to separate DNA fragments of a known size range at a desired resolution and run time.

Many Choices
POP-7 polymers are very versatile and designed for a wide range of short read to long read sequencing applications as well as fragment analysis. POP-4 polymers are designed specifically for HID/Forensic applications, while POP-6 polymers are the choice for certain sequencing applications (and fragment analysis).

For partially used pouches that need to be stored, a cap (4412619) that plugs into the pouch fitment opening is recommended.

For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

What is the white residue around the Applied Biosystems 3500/3500xL Genetic Analyzer array knob?

When placing the array on the instrument, the last step in the process is to loosen the array knob and the instrument forces any air bubbles around the array tip through the threading and the middle of the array knob. Some polymer gets pushed through as well and when it dries up, it appears as a white, flaky residue. Use a damp, lint-free cloth to remove it.

I seem to be getting bubbles from the polymer pouch on my Applied Biosystems 3500/3500xL Genetic Analyzer but the polymer level is normal. What is causing it?

On the Applied Biosystems 3500 Series Genetic Analyzer, the polymer pouch may not be sitting properly or the check valve may be stuck in the open position. Carefully detach the polymer pouch by pulling down the handle next to it, and then pull the handle up while guiding the pouch into place and secure it by pushing up on the plastic head of the pouch. If this fails, perform a wash on the system using the conditioning pouch. If reseating the tube/pouch and cleanup do not fix the problem, a service call may be required.

When I started my run on the Applied Biosystems 3500/3500xL Genetic Analyzer, an error occurred: "Unstable Electrophoresis current detected, check for air bubbles" but I don't see any bubbles. What else can cause this?

Some of the other causes of an Unstable Electrophoresis current detected error message are:

1.Leak on the system
2. Polymer that:
-Has expired
-Has been left on the instrument for more than the recommended time
-Is a mixture of expired polymer and non-expired polymer
3. Running Buffer that was:
-On the instrument longer than 2 weeks
-Not filled to the fill line or evaporated below the fill line
4. An arcing event that was not cleaned afterwards using the water wash wizard
5. Not performing regular maintenance on the instrument
6. Hardware issues

Inspect the system for leaks. If you do not see any leaks on the system, perform the wash the pump chamber and channels wizard using the conditioning pouch and place fresh, non-expired polymer and fresh Anode and Cathode buffer containers. If the problem persists, a service call may be required.

I have an Applied Biosystems 3500/3500xL Genetic Analyzer. When do my consumables expire?

If we do not specify the expiry date or number of uses, the warranty will last for 12 months from the date of shipment.

My Applied Biosystems 3500/3500xL Genetic Analyzer consumables have expired, but how long past expiration can I really use them?

Thermo Fisher Scientific can only provide warranty on performance on non-expired reagents. Using reagents past their expiration date is a risk and may compromise your data integrity.
