6 Maintenance of NucleoCounter
29
6.1.4 Spill of liquid
If liquid has been spilled on the instrument it can contaminate elements of the optical
system. This contamination can show up in the image in several ways and have many
causes but a common feature is that it cannot be removed by the use of compressed air.
Even though such phenomena are clearly visible on the image it only rarely affects the
results of the NucleoCounter. Since it is possible to damage the optical system while
attempting to clean the system it is recommended that ChemoMetec A/S should be
consulted before the user attempts such cleaning.
