Abstract:
Valves, pumps, detectors, sample loops, fraction collectors and the like are individually incorporated into modules that are mountable at individual mounting sites on a base unit which also supports one or more chromatography columns. Each module includes fluid connections to other modules and a microcontroller joining the module to a computed and monitor through an electronic connector at each mounting site. The fluid connections between the modules and the column(s) are removed from the electronic connections and accessible to the user. A software platform may recognize the modules and their locations, coordinate fluid connections between the modules, and provide a variety of control, monitoring, data generating and data processing functions to generate chromatographic data. The software platform may also provide graphical tools for designing chromatographic methods from a library of phases.
Abstract:
A system for fluid manipulation includes a composite wafer and a movable compression device. The composite wafer includes a flexible layer and a substantially rigid layer adhered to the flexible layer. The flexible layer defines one or more recesses that are covered by the substantially rigid layer to form one or more reservoirs and one or more fluid channels among the one or more reservoirs. The movable compression device contacts the flexible layer and is configured to progressively compress the flexible layer such that when the movable compression device traverses the flexible layer, fluid is forced through the one or more fluid channels and the one or more reservoirs in a sequence determined by the layout of the one or more fluid channels and the one or more reservoirs. Certain reservoirs may be pre-loaded with fluids and reagents for performing a specified medical test.
Abstract:
Electrotransfer is performed in an instrument that receives electroblotting cassettes and that contains an integrated power supply, controls, and a display that allows the user to monitor and control each of a plurality of cassettes individually through electrical contacts within the housing that mate with corresponding electrical contacts on the cassettes.
