    摘要: A system and method for maintaining a suspension of particles within a fluid are disclosed. A container (18) holding a sample having particles and fluid is rotated about its axis at a first calculated rate for a first calculated time interval and then rotated about its axis at a second calculated rate for a second calculated time interval such that the sample flow effects that result maintain a suspension of particles within the fluid and agitate the sample. A cycle of rotation, including the first and second flow rates, may be repeated for a desired number of times for continuous maintenance of the particle suspension. A controller (14) is programmed to rotate a motor (16) connected to a container holder (30) that rotatably drives the container about its axis. Sample (20) may be aspirated from the container and transported to an analytical device (12) while the container is being rotated. Because the rates of rotation of the cycle are relatively slow and because solid body rotation is not achieved during the cycle, the level of agitation that occurs results in only a negligible impact on the analytical device.

    摘要: A flow cell and flow cytometer in which a nozzle at the end of a flow channel is disposed on a removable substrate held at a registered location on a flow cell. Other elements including illumination optics, light collection optics, and the flow cell may then be positioned at fixed locations and would not require subsequent periodic adjustment. The registered location for positioning the nozzle allows removal and replacement of the nozzle key with the nozzle subsequently positioned in the identical location.

    摘要: A device for conditioning of fluid to minimize pulses from a pump source. A pump drives fluid from a vented fluid reservoir through a system including a combination of an attenuation tank and one or more orifice. Fluid is pumped into a plenum chamber that supplies fluid in a pulse free flow stream. A pressurized head over the fluid in the plenum chamber allows fluid delivery at a selected pressure. A volume sensor monitors the fluid level within the plenum tank and activates the pump if fluid level falls below a specified level.
