FAQ

What applications are offered on the QIAcube?

For an up-to-date list of available protocols, visit QIAcube Standard Protocols.

 

Click here for a virtual demonstration on how the QIAcube operates.

FAQ ID -1403
Can the QIAcube heater/shaker be used independently from protocol runs?

Yes. The heated shaker on the QIAcube Connect can be operated independently if the QIAcube is not performing a protocol run. For instructions on how to operate the shaker, refer to the QIAcube Connect User Manual, chapter 5 "Operating Procedures", section 5.9 "Independent heater/shaker operation".

The shaker can be used to heat and shake samples simultaneously, shake samples without heating, or heat samples without shaking.

FAQ ID -1422
Are run reports and/or log files available on the QIAcube?

Yes. At the end of each protocol run on the QIAcube, a report file is generated that contains important information such as number of samples, liquid volumes measured during the load check, and run time. A log file is also generated that contains information about instrument actions, such as movement of the robotic arm.

Report files can be automatically transferred from your QIAcube Connect using the QIAsphere Export Tool. For this, just connect your QIAcube Connect to QIAsphere. More information can be found on the QIAsphere webpage.

FAQ ID -1412
Can the QIAcube centrifuge be used independently from protocol runs?

You can stop a QIAcube protocol if there is an emergency by pressing Stop Run. To confirm that you want to stop the protocol run, press Yes. To cancel the "Stop Run" command, press No.

Note: If a protocol run is stopped, the run cannot be restarted. The samples must be processed manually. The last protocol step performed by the QIAcube will be displayed on the touchscreen. For more information, refer to the QIAcube Connect User Manual.

FAQ ID -1423
Is it necessary to place the lids of the elution tube and column into the slots of the rotor adapter during processing on the QIAcube?

Yes, this is absolutely necessary. If the lids are not securely fixed in the rotor adapter slots during processing on the QIAcube, they will become detached from the elution tubes and columns during centrifugation and will collect at the bottom of the centrifuge chamber.

 

FAQ ID -1415
Are there any specific cleaning solutions recommended for the QIAcube?

The following disinfectants and detergents are recommended for cleaning the QIAcube:

  • Mikrozid® Liquid (Schülke & Mayr GmbH) — ethanol-based disinfectant for spraying onto surfaces (consists of 25 g ethanol and 35 g 1-propanol per 100 g Mikrozid Liquid)
  • RBS®-35 Detergent Concentrate (Pierce Chemical Co.) — anionic and nonionic surfactant based detergent for cleaning the touch screen and worktable door
  • RNaseZap® (Ambion) — for complete removal of RNase contamination from glass and plastic surfaces
  • 0.1 M NaOH — for cleaning the worktable and racks to remove RNase contamination (alternative to RNaseZap)
  • Note: Alcohol is not recommended for cleaning of the door.

Europe 

Lysetol® AF (Gigsept® Instru AF) (Schülke & Mayr GmbH) — disinfectant for submerging worktable items (consists of 14 g cocospropylene-diamine-guanidine diacetate, 35 g phenoxypropanols, and 2.5 g benzalkonium chloride per 100 g Lysetol AF, with anticorrosion components, fragrance, and 15–30% nonionic surfactants).

 

USA

DECON-QUAT® 100 (Veltek Associates, Inc.) — quaternary ammonium salt based disinfectant concentrate for submerging worktable items (contains 5% alkyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride and 5% alkyldimethylethylbenzylammonium chloride).

Note: If you want to use disinfectants different from those recommended, ensure that their compositions are similar to those described above.

FAQ ID -1416
How can I get software updates for the QIAcube?

New software or software updates can be accessed via the QIAcube Web Portal at www.qiagen.com/MyQIAcube. To access them directly, go to User Support.

 

 

FAQ ID -1413
Can purification columns from other suppliers be processed on the QIAcube?

No. The QIAcube is designed for fully automated processing of up to 12 samples using QIAGEN spin-column kits. Do not use spin columns manufactured by other suppliers with the QIAcube. Damage caused by use of other types of spin columns will void the instrument warranty.

 

See:  http://www.qiagen.com/products/catalogpagecontrols/header/qiacube/360/default.aspx for a demonstration on how the QIAcube is used with the RNeasy Mini Kit for automated purification of RNA.

 

FAQ ID -1406
Can I program my own protocols for the QIAcube?

No. Slightly modified QIAGEN protocols or protocols fully customised to your specific requirements can be requested from QIAGEN. Our dedicated team of specialists has already customised over 5000 protocols.

  1. Go to www.qiagen.com/MyQIAcube  and enter the required information. If our application specialists require additional information, they will contact you directly.
  2. You will be notified by email when your customized protocol is ready for download.
  3. Click on the link in the email to access the download page.

FAQ ID -1405
Can the QIAcube be connected to a laboratory information management system?
Report files can be automatically transferred from your QIAcube Connect using the QIAsphere Export Tool. For this, just connect your QIAcube Connect to QIAsphere and install the QIAsphere Export Tool on a computer connected to the network. More information can be found on the QIAsphere webpage.
FAQ ID -1411
What dedicated QIAcube Kits are available?
What are the dimensions and weight of the QIAcube?

The QIAcube Connect has the following weight and dimensions: 

  • Weight: 73 kg (160.9 lb.)
  • Width: 65 cm (25.6 in.)
  • Depth: 62 cm (24.4 in.)
  • Height (door closed): 58 cm (22.8 in.)
  • Height (door open): 86 cm (34 in.)
FAQ ID -1407
How can I decontaminate the QIAcube system?

Please refer to Section 6.2 "Disinfection" and Section 6.6 "Periodic maintenance" of the QIAcube Connect User Manual

FAQ ID -1419
Can I use the 2 ml Sample Tubes RB (cat. no. 990381) with TissueLyser II and TissueLyser LT?

Yes, the 2 ml Sample Tubes RB (cat. no. 990381) can be used with both TissueLyser II and TissueLyser LT.

FAQ ID -9188
Can the QIAcube rotor and/or buckets be removed for cleaning?

Yes, rotor and/or buckets can be removed from the QIAcube for cleaning. For information on how to remove these parts, refer to the QIAcube User Manual.

 

FAQ ID -1410
Can QIAcube protocol runs be interrupted, and subsequently be continued to completion?

You can stop a QIAcube protocol if there is an emergency by pressing “Cancel”. To confirm that you want to stop the protocol run, press “OK”. To cancel the 'stop protocol' command, press “Cancel”.

Note: If a protocol run is stopped, the run cannot be restarted. The samples must be processed manually. The last protocol step performed by the QIAcube will be displayed in the touch screen. For more information, refer to the QIAcube User Manual.

FAQ ID -1414
Is the Reagent Bottle Rack, Grey, QC2 (cat. no. 9026197) compatible with the QIAcube Classic instrument?
Yes. This is compatible with the QIAcube Classic instrument.
FAQ ID - 3993
Do I need to buy special kits for the QIAcube?

No. The beauty of the QIAcube Connect is that you can automate your supported manual spin-column workflow flawlessly. The manual kits contain sufficient buffers and reagents to process the number of spin columns provided with the kit.

However, in addition to the purification kit, Rotor Adapters (10 x 24), cat. no 990394, and disposable tips are required:

  • Filter-Tips, 200 µL (1024), cat no. 990332,
  • Filter-Tips, 1000 µL (1024), cat no. 990352,
  • Filter-Tips, 1000 µL wide-bore (1024), cat no. 990452.

To find out which filter-tips are required for a specific application, refer to the corresponding protocol sheet or the instructions on the QIAcube Connect touchscreen. Even easier to use are the dedicated QIAcube kits.

FAQ ID -1402
Can the QIAcube rotor adapters be autoclaved?
No. Autoclaving the rotor adapters will cause the plastic to deform and the rotor adapters will no longer fit properly into the centrifuge buckets.
FAQ ID -1409
Do I need to discard partially used QIAcube tip racks?

No. The QIAcube is equipped with an optical sensor, which determines the tip size and the number of tips loaded onto the worktable prior to starting a run.

The QIAcube can use partially used tip racks from previous runs, provided that the racks contain sufficient tips to process the number of samples loaded for the current run.
