To extract the captured particles from the filter:
1.
Place the sample cup, filter, and elutor cap,
as shown in Figure 6, on a stable surface.
2.
Firmly press the elution fluid canister into the
elutor cap. The elution foam will be released
from the elution fluid canister through the
filter when the canister valve is pressed
down. Hold the canister down until all the
foam is released. The foam quickly collapses
into a liquid in the sample cup and available
for sample processing and analysis.
