Section 1 Introduction

The Thermo system of ybridising in bottles is considered by many

molecular biologists to be the best method for conducting ybridisations

with Southern, Northern, Dot, Slot or Colony Blots. Additional

information, including detailed protocols, is contained in the included

ybridisation Guide.

ybridising in bottles means that probe volumes may be significantly

reduced compared to experiments performed in conventional systems, and

the continual movement of the probe across the surface of the membrane

results in very efficient hybridisation reactions.

Protection from exposure to radiation is provided by the heavy walled

borosilicate glass bottles.

Warning Based on tests, these bottles block almost 100% of BETA

radiation emissions of a 1,000 pCi P-32 source. owever, users should

observe precautions due to induced X-ray phenomenon (Breemsstrahlung)

occurring, depending on the type(s) of radionuclides used. s

The ybridisation Oven itself provides additional shielding. In the event

of a spillage within the Oven, the stainless steel drip tray will contain up to

6.8 fl. oz. (200 ml) of liquid.

Note If the Shake ‘n Stack is not used as specified in this manual, the

protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.

All Ovens are calibrated by matching the thermistor temperature read-out,

seen on the LCD display, to the actual measurement of distilled water

contained within a ybridisation Bottle as it rotates. The temperature

measuring device used inside the calibration bottle is traceable to national

standards.

This calibration method ensures all experiments using the rotisserie meet

our temperature accuracy specification of ±1°C and indeed, due to the

rotisserie action, uniformity within the bottle is ±0.25°C. owever, it is

important to note that the temperature inside the oven chamber will vary

from point to point and therefore, the temperature of objects/vessels,

which are not placed in the rotisserie, will vary from that which is

displayed. Refer to “Setting the Required Temperature” for

recommendations on temperature setting when using shaking platforms.

1-2 Shake ‘n Stack Thermo Scientific

Section 1

Introduction

The Shake ‘n Stack is designed to be used with Thermo’s hybridisation

bottle. These high quality leak-proof containers can be used at

temperatures up to 70°C (for catalogue numbers, see Section 8).

Bottles should not be used above 70°C without taking the precaution of

releasing the pressure formed by the release of gases from solutions as they

are warmed. Simply loosening, then retightening the bottle cap at

approximately 60°C should relieve the pressure.

Caution Dropping or over-tightening lids can cause cracking and failure.

Lids should be inspected prior to each use. s

Caution Always wear gloves when handling the bottle and use the bottle

gripper provided (see Appendix II for full instructions on Bottle Care). s

Finally, the Shake ‘n Stack Oven is designed for reliability and ease of

maintenance. The rotisserie, shaking platform and drip tray can be easily

removed for cleaning.

Caution Care should be taken when lifting the Oven. It is advisable that

help is sought when removing an Oven from its packaging and when

stacking Ovens for use. s

Caution During operation, caution should be taken with moving parts

that are accessible when the Oven door is open. s

Note If any item is missing or damaged, contact Thermo or an authorised

Thermo distributor.

Warning If it is intended to use the Oven with radioactive isotopes, the

oven must be located in a designated Radiation Area. Radiation safety

procedures must be followed at all times. s

• In the event of spillage, refer to Section 6 for guidance on cleaning and

decontamination.

• All ybridisation Oven standard rotisseries are designed to accept the

long, medium or short ybridisation Bottles.

Once unpacked, attach leveling feet to base, and position on a flat surface.

Level the oven by adjusting the height of the leveling feet. Once leveled,

the oven is ready for use. If adding to a stack of Shake ‘n Stack Ovens

(maximum of 3), attach feet and adjust height, then position feet in the 4

indents on the top of the supporting Shake ‘n Stack Oven. Some

additional adjustment of the feet may be necessary until the ovens sit in a

stable position.

Note Shake ‘n Stack Ovens have been designed to stack 3 units high. No

attempt should be made to stack higher than this.

Connect each individual oven to the mains supply using only the

removable mains lead supplied. The mains lead should be fitted with a

10 A fuse for both 110/120 V and 220/240 V regions. The oven is

grounded via the mains lead and should only be connected to an grounded

supply. (See “Technical Specifications”).
