Installing the Filter
Systems include a 50mm sq Ethidium Bromide (EtBr) filter.
To install the filter in the BioDoc-It darkroom:
1. Carefully remove the filter from the protective
plastic case, holding the filter at the edges to
prevent fingerprints.
2. The filter tray is located under the camera
bracket on the top right side of the darkroom.
Slide the tray open.
3. Place the filter inside the filter tray. Ensure
that the text on the edge of the filter is
positioned so it is right side up when facing
the installer.
Additional filters are available. Refer to Replacement
Parts and Accessories for ordering information.
