Yes, that is possible, since the chip surface will be submerged in running buffer after your assay. In between assays, however, we recommend storing the dried chip at -20°C to increase longevity.
Both assays consist of a chip regeneration (i.e. removal of hybridized ligand strands) and the hybridization of complementary Adapter Strands (Test and Standby solution). The Chip Test additionally contains a chip passivation and provides information on the chip...
heliX® Chips are generally robust and long-lasting, if handled and stored under recommended conditions. The chips are equipped with magnets, ensuring the correct insertion into the chip tray as well as securing them in place. Instructions for heliX® Chip storage and...
A chip status test gives you important information about the quality of your chip. We recommend performing a chip status test before each assay. The chip test assay performs a regeneration step during which the surface is functionalized with blank Adapter strands, a...
To reuse your chip, you simply perform a chip functionalization. This includes two steps: a regeneration and the hybridization of new ligand strands. During the regeneration, all bound analytes and immobilized ligands are removed from the chip surface using the...
