Description
The O2 sensor test is an important component of the MitoFit Quality Control System. The OroboPOS sensor test is described in detail in MiPNet06.03 POS-calibration-SOP, is performed after switching on the Oroboros O2k, and is required as a basis of technical service of the instrument.

- 2. About 20 min are required for approximate air equilibration after temperature equilibration of the incubation medium, visualized as stabilization of the Peltier power(Fig. 2; time scale is 1:10h:min).
- Quality control a: Upon automatic re-start of the stirrer (On), the increase of the oxygen signal should be rapid and monoexponential.
- Quality control b: The raw signal (blue plot; 1 V = 1 Ī¼A at gain 1)should be close to 1 to 3V at 25 to 37 Ā°C at sea level up to 1,000 m altitude, in the range of pb 101 to 90 kPa (at gain setting of 2 the raw signal [V] would betwo times higher).
- 3. Within 40 min, the oxygen signals should be stable with O2 slope (uncorrected) close to zero(Fig. 2).
- Quality control c: Signal noise should be low, reflected in a noise of the O2 slope (red plot) within Ā±2 (Ā±4 is acceptable) pmolāsā1āmLā1at a data recording interval of 2 s and 40 data points selected for calculation of the slope (Fig. 2).

- Flux values higher than 4.0 pmolāsā1āmLā1 indicate a biological contamination.
- Flux values lower than 1.5 pmolāsā1āmLā1:
- Air bubbles in the closed chamber: switch on the illumination of the O2k and inspect the chamber through the front window. Remove any air bubbles.
- A large volume of medium collected in the receptacle of the stopper: siphon off excess medium.
- A larger chamber volume: check O2k-Chamber volume calibration.
- Quality control f: The zero signal at mark R0 for zero calibration (not shown) should be <2% of R1 (stable at <5% is acceptable).
Troubleshooting
General
- The O2 sensor test does not only serve to evaluate the function of the OroboPOS, but many other components of the O2k have to function according to specifications for a high-resolution oxygen signal to be obtained:
- USB-Cable 2.0\Type A-B not properly connected to the O2k and PC or Laptop.
- O2k-Chamber not properly positioned, such that O2 sensors are not connected to the medium.
- OroboPOS-Membranes defective or not properly applied.
- OroboPOS-Connector contaminated gold contacts; plugs not properly connected to the sockets of the O2k-Main Unit.
- OroboPOS contacts not cleaned. In rare cases, Pen-Contact Oil might be used.
- OroboPOS-Electrolyte Powder contaminated, inappropriate water used for dissolving the powder.
- O2-Zero Powder not properly handled; confused with OroboPOS-Polishing Powder.
- OroboPOS not properly serviced; not properly mounted to the OroboPOS-Connector; or defective POS head.
- Room temperature not sufficiently stable.
- Stirrer-Bar\white PVDF\15x6 mm not added to the chamber, or stuck and not rotating.
- O2k-Barometric Pressure Transducer not properly calibrated.
- O2k-Peltier Temperature Control defective electronics.
- O2k-Electromagnetic Stirrer Twin-Control defective electronics.
- O2k-Main Basic not properly connected; other defective hardware.
- If the signal remains off scale (9.99 V) or very low (< 1 V) at air saturation (25 to 37 Ā°C; lower signals at lower temperatures): Many components may be responsible, and an electronic defect of the O2k-Main Unit must be carefully excluded.
- Check settings for Gain (use Gain 1) and Polarization voltage (use 800 mV). If these settings were incorrect, the off-scale problem may be solved simply by using the standard settings.
- Empty the chamber with the O2k running and connected to DatLab. Switch the stirrer off. Disassemble theOroboPOS from the OroboPOS-Connector as exemplified.Ā» O2k-Videosupport: Disassembly of OroboPOS. Leave the sensor attached to the POS connector, and the POS connector plugged into the O2k-Main Unit. Record the signal for some minutes. The raw signal should normalize to a value >1 V and <3 V (Gain 1). If so, the O2k-Chamber assembly was problematic (application problem), and re-assembly will solve the problem. Ā» O2k-Videosupport: Insert O2k-Chamber.
- Remove the sensor head from the sensor connector, which remains plugged into the O2k-Main Unit. If the raw signal is not stable at 0 V, a defect of the OroboPOS-Connector is indicated.
- Remove the plug of the OroboPOS-Connector from the O2k-Main Unit. A signal of 0.4 V, which remains stable when changing the gain, is a strong indication of an electronic problem in the O2k-Main Unit.
- For O2k-Series D and higher: The signal should be 0 V, otherwise an electronic problem of the O2k-Main Unit is indicated.
- For O2k-Series A to C: The signal should be off-scale (+/- 9.99 V), otherwise an electronic problem of the O2k-Main Unit is indicated.
- If the signal remains off scale (9.99 V) or very low (< 1 V) at air saturation (25 to 37 Ā°C; lower signals at lower temperatures): Many components may be responsible, and an electronic defect of the O2k-Main Unit must be carefully excluded.
Switch components approach
- If specifications given in the POS-SOP are not obtained: switch components for locating the problem.
- Follow the switch components troubleshoot approach:
- 1 During the switch components troubleshooting, different configurations in which the OroboPOS and OroboPOS-Connectors are switched between chambers will be tested. Start with the original configuration (do not swap any component before starting).
- a. Fill the O2k-Chambers with medium or water and perform Oxygen_calibration_-_DatLab following the SOP as in MiPNet06.03_POS-calibration-SOP.
- b. After completing the step above and setting the marks R1 and JĀ°1, keep recording the file and empty the O2k-Chambers. Mark this event (F4) and describe it in the 'Event' window.
- c. Detach the OroboPOS-Connectors from each chamber and remove the OroboPOS from each OroboPOS-Connector. When disconnecting a sensor from the OroboPOS-Connector, prevent damage by electrostatic discharge by following the guidelines: MiPNet14.01 ESD-damage. It is not necessary to remove the seal tip and the mounted membrane from the OroboPOS. This is a good opportunity to clean the gold contacts of the OroboPOS-Connectors and sensors: Cleaning the electrical connections.
- 2 Switch only the OroboPOS between O2k-Chambers A and B, keeping the same OroboPOS-Connector for each chamber. Create an event and name it as Sensors swapped. Repeat steps a, b and c.
- 3 Switch only the OroboPOS-Connector between O2k-Chambers A and B. Do not switch the OroboPOS location from the previous setup. Create an event and name it as Connectors swapped. Repeat steps a, b and c.
- 4 Switch only the OroboPOS between O2k-Chambers A and B, keeping the same OroboPOS-Connector location from the previous setup. Create an event and name it as Sensors swapped. Repeat steps a, b and c.
- 5 Switch only the OroboPOS-Connector between O2k-Chambers A and B. Do not switch the OroboPOS location from the previous setup i.e., OroboPOS and OroboPOS-Connector in their original O2k-Chambers.. In this way, you will return to the original setup. Create an event and name it as Connectors swapped. Repeat steps a, b and c.
- 1 During the switch components troubleshooting, different configurations in which the OroboPOS and OroboPOS-Connectors are switched between chambers will be tested. Start with the original configuration (do not swap any component before starting).
- Follow the switch components troubleshoot approach:

Question: We have a problem located in the O2k-Chamber B, its OroboPOS is not providing the recommendation specifications of MiPNet06.03_POS-calibration-SOP. I am attaching an image to visualize the issue. I have performed the POS service 6 times including cathode and anode cleaning as in O2k-Videosupport, OroboPOS-Holder exchange, O2k-Chamber disassembly followed by assembly, and stirrers exchange. Nevertheless, the signal is always very bad. The data is attached (2019-11-28).
Answer:
1. To discern the origin of your observed noisy signal - could you perform a switch approach by recording the QC1: Oxygen sensor test within one measurement DLD file including switch of the OroboPOS between chamber A and B, 'ie.':
- O2k-Chamber A with OroboPOS A + OroboPOS-Connector A and O2k-Chamber B with OroboPOS B + OroboPOS-Connector B followed by
- O2k-Chamber A with OroboPOS B + OroboPOS-Connector B and O2k-Chamber B with OroboPOS A + OroboPOS-Connector A followed by
- O2k-Chamber A with OroboPOS B + OroboPOS-Connector A and O2k-Chamber B with OroboPOS A + OroboPOS-Connector B followed by
- O2k-Chamber A with OroboPOS A + OroboPOS-Connector B and O2k-Chamber B with OroboPOS B + OroboPOS-Connector A.
2. Perform a complete POS-service (including cathode cleaning, anode cleaning, dry the connector with a clean and dry tissue after the service) as explained in MiPNet06.03_POS-calibration-SOP.
3. Perform the QC1: Oxygen sensor test after the complete POS-service and send me the resulting files for further evaluation.
Customer feedback: Following the quality control tests I have obtained a drastic signal improvement. The data is attached (2020-01-13).
