The 'Labware and Consumables' screen shows you all the materials firefly needs to run your
protocol (you may need to scroll down to see everything), including quantities and types of all
reservoirs and syringes used. Check the labware carefully e.g., if tips are sterile or filtered.

Colored squares below the plate indicate that it is filled before it is loaded. You will need to prepare these plates before starting your protocol on firefly.
IMPORTANT: This screen does not show you the materials and equipment you will need for the steps which are not performed on firefly.
Before you start you should review the SOP for the protocol to see what additional equipment you will need, particularly as you may need to have other equipment ready for immediate transfer of plates e.g., for PCR. When you have your materials ready, click 'Next'.
