摘要： Methods and apparatuses of identifying a type of material or material combination in a measurement location by Magnetic Induction Tomography (MIT) is disclosed. The methods can comprise providing a primary magnetic field primarily in a first direction into the measurement location; measuring an orthogonal component of a secondary magnetic field; classifying the orthogonal component of the secondary magnetic field with reference to a material or material combination type and thereby identifying a type of material or material combination in the measurement location. The orthogonal component of the secondary magnetic field is in a direction substantially orthogonal to the first direction.

摘要： The present invention describes an integrated incubator and image capture module that regulates the incubator atmosphere and obtains high-resolution digital images of sample specimens. The incubator has a cabinet type enclosure that enables the provision of a controlled environment to the contents of the incubator by having at least three ports on one face of the cabinet for the passage of sample containers. Additionally, an image capture module is located immediately adjacent to the incubator. In this regard, using at least three separate access/egress points for the sample containers streamlines operation of the system and enhances preservation of the incubator environment. Furthermore, locating the image capture module directly adjacent to the incubator reduces the amount of time a sample container is exposed to the external environment, thereby reducing the extent to which samples are exposed to potential contaminants and reducing the exchange of the lab and ambient atmospheres.

摘要： The presently claimed and described technology provides integrated automated instruments (100, 100A, 100B, 100C) and methods (800) for automatically processing a whole blood sample (50) in a single sample tube (80). These include: mixing the sample in the tube; analyzing a portion (50P) of the mixed sample (50M); centrifuging the sample in the tube thereby separating plasma (60); and analyzing a portion (60P) of the plasma. A pretreatment module (200) may mix, centrifuge, transport, and store the sample. The integrated instrument may include multiple detector components and does not require external sample handling.

摘要： The present disclosure relates to a detection system for detecting a biological fluid sample, which comprises a sampling needle, a consumable, a guide rail system and an optical detection device. The guide rail system comprises a first guide rail and a second guide rail. The detection system further comprises a first drive and a second drive. The sampling needle is movable along the first guide rail between a rest position, a sampling position and a sample discharge position by means of the first drive. In the rest position, the sampling needle is far away from the biological fluid sample to be extracted. In the sampling position, the sampling needle protrudes into the biological fluid sample. The consumable is movable to a plurality of different positions along the second guide rail by means of the second drive, wherein in a first position of the consumable, the sampling needle can discharge the extracted biological fluid sample into a sample receptacle of the consumable in the sample discharge position, and in a second position of the consumable, the biological fluid sample received in the consumable can be detected by the optical detection device. The detection system has a simple structure and a simple workflow.

摘要： Method and associated system for reading machine-readable labels on a plurality of sample receptacles held by a sample rack. In the method, a machine-readable label associated each of the plurality of sample receptacles is read with a first label reader when the rack is at a first location. The sample rack is then moved from the first location to a second location, where a rack identifier on the sample rack is sensed with a sensor separate from the first label reader. Finally, the rack identifier is associated with the machine-readable labels of the plurality of sample receptacles.
