Depending on the samples you are running on the system, it is possible for the Open Port Interface (OPI) electrode to become dirty or occluded over time. Below are two different cleaning strategies that can help you maintain your Echo® MS system and keep your OPI electrodes running well.
Quick cleaning protocol
This protocol is easy to perform between running your sample plates:
Intensive cleaning protocol
This protocol is an offline protocol that can be used periodically for a more intensive wash of the OPI electrode or to recover electrodes that are becoming occluded:
Some electrodes may not be recoverable, but we have had good success with this method on many.
Here is an example of a good union to use:
