摘要:
Devices and methods that measure one or more properties of a living cell culture that is contained in liquid media within a vessel, and typically analyzes plural cell cultures contained in plural vessels such as the wells of a mutiwell microplate substantially in parallel. The devices incorporate a sensor that remains in equilibrium with, e.g., remains submerged within, the liquid cell media during the performance of a measurement and during addition of one or more cell affecting fluids such as solutions of potential drug compounds.

The present invention optically obtains characteristic values of a plurality of biological samples from a specimen; compares the characteristic values with examination information associated with the same specimen obtained in advance; and calculates an indicator to determine, based on a result of the comparison, whether a process is continued to genetic analysis of the biological samples or a re-preparation of samples from the same specimen is performed. By this method, it is possible to achieve more reliable biomarker detection by ensuring validity through appropriate selection of test samples while reducing cost, effort, and time for analysis in single cell analysis or analysis of a group of a small number of cells.

A management server (30) of a sample inspection system (1a) includes sample processing information (70) generated on the basis of inspection request data (60) accepted from a sample access system (50), facility data (80) having a processing time of the sample inspection line (20), a simulation execution portion (35) for executing simulation on the basis of the sample processing information (70) and the facility data (80) and a window generation portion (32) for generating a monitor window (100) to be outputted to a monitor device (40). The inspection request data (60) contains a priority (63), an order time (64), a required time (65) and inspection items (66) and the sample processing information (70) contains an inspection start time (P2) and an inspection estimate finish time (P3). The monitor window (100) has a work area (101) in which the samples represented by sample bars (Z) parallel to the abscissa are arranged in a vertical direction and a past record and a future schedule are allocated to this abscissa with the present time (P1) as the base. The sample bars (Z) display a simulation execution portion (35) for executing simulation on the basis of the inspection start time (P2), the inspection estimate finish time (P3) and a delay time (Z1). The management server (30) displays the simulation result of the simulation execution portion (85) on the monitor window (100).

An object of the present invention is to provide a sample processing system, wherein writing to each RFID is equalized to eliminate unevenness in the use of sample containers. The configuration of the present invention can be realized by controlling the numbers of times (write counts) data is written to RFIDs, and by skipping data writing according to frequencies in the use of sample containers. Setting use information (count) of each IC tag, and comparing the use information with an average value of the use of the IC tags, make it possible to limit the write counts, which enables the equalization of writing to the IC tags, thereby making it possible to uniform the use of the sample containers in the system.
