摘要:
The present invention relates to a method and a device for metering liquids, wherein the volume of a droplet of a sample liquid is determined by means of optical measuring. The liquid to be metered is brought into contact with a transfer element so that a droplet adheres to the transfer element. The transfer element and the liquid adhering thereto are illuminated from one or several directions and the resulting images are displayed on an optical sensor. The liquid volume is determined on the basis of these images. Metering is accomplished by transferring the liquid volume adhering to the transfer element into an analysis vessel.

In a process for carrying out an analytical determination by mixing and incubating a sample liquid with at least one dry reagent which is soluble therein to form a reaction mixture liquid and measuring a parameter in the reaction mixture liquid, the sample liquid is first transported along a transport path to the soluble dry reagent and the resulting reaction mixture liquid then further transported along the transport path. The further transporting of the reaction mixture liquid along the transport path is under the influence of a force-change cycle in which centrifugal force and a further force alternately predominate to determine the direction of the further transporting along the transport path. At least one further liquid is transported on another path, part of which is separate from and part of which is common with the transport path, by the force-change cycle in such a manner that at least two of the liquids pass through the common part of the transport path chronologically separated.

In a polychromatic photometer a sample wheel containing angularly spaced sample compartments and a filter wheel containing angularly spaced filters are rotated by a common drive arrangement so that the sample compartments and filters are in turn rotated through and aligned with the optical path of a photometric measuring device. The number of sample compartments is different from the number of filters. The number of sample compartments and the number of filters are not evenly divisible by a common integer. The ratio of the angular velocity of the sample wheel to the angular velocity of the filter wheel is substantially equal to the ratio of the number of filters to the number of sample compartments.

Novel method for the determination of .alpha.-amylase which method comprises contacting a sample suspected of containing .alpha.-amylase with a starch derivative carrying a substituent capable of dyestuff-forming coupling; separating from the resulting starch-containing phase the low molecular weight soluble fission products formed by splitting of said starch derivative by .alpha.-amylase; coupling the said couplable substituent with another dyestuff forming component; and measuring the dyestuff so formed as a measure of the initial .alpha.-amylase content.

In a conventional method for the quantitative determination of substances, particularly in serum, which, by action of an oxidase thereon, combine with oxygen to form hydrogen peroxide and wherein the hydrogen peroxide formed is converted, in the presence of methanol and catalase, to formaldehyde, the formaldehyde is reacted with hydrazone in the presence of ferric chloride, and the dye thus formed is determined photometrically, the improvement comprising using as the hydrazone, 3-methyl-2-sulfonylbenzothiazolone-hydrazone; use of this hydrazone results in the formation of a very easily soluble dye and is suited for use in automatic analyzers.
摘要:
A method for the metered application of a biochemical analytical liquid to a target, wherein the liquid is ejected in small quantities on to the target through a jet from a jet chamber by a procedure in which a partial volume of the liquid in the jet chamber is evaporated and expanded for a short time whenever a quantity of the liquid is to be ejected. The invention further relates to a device with a disposable jet element which contains prepackaged analytical liquid.

The present invention provides a device for carrying out a heterogeneous reaction for the determination of a component of a sample liquid on a first capillary action carrier present in a measurement chamber, to which carrier adheres at least one non-soluble reagent, wherein at least one soluble reagent is present on a second capillary action carrier in a first pre-chamber, which carrier is in capillary contact with the capillary action carrier in the measurement chamber, which first pre-chamber is connected via a first capillary with a first application chamber to be filled from outside through a filling opening and the measurement chamber is also connected with a waste chamber by a capillary arrangement through which can only flow a liquid under a predetermined gravitational force into the measurement chamber.
摘要:
A process for carrying out an analytical determination by mixing and incubating a sample solution with at least one reagent and measuring a parameter in the reaction mixture, the sample solution being transported from an application point to a measurement point, wherein a sample solution is first transported to a soluble dry reagent, with at least partial dissolving of the latter, and then further transported to a measurement point, the transport taking place by two different forces, whereby, at least on a part of the transport path, it is brought about by a surface force acting on the solution as a first force, which, for the regulation of the transport velocity or transport direction, is superimposed by a centrifugal force and/or pressure force as a second force which, depending upon which transport state of the fluid is to be adjusted, is made greater or smaller than the first force.
摘要:
This invention describes a process for immuno-chemical quantitative determination of immunologically active substances. The method involves a first incubation of a sample containing the active substance with a labelled binder, which contains an antibody or antibody fragment. After complexing has taken place, solid phase bound active substance identical to the substance being quantitatively determined is added. The solid phase bound substance binds with free binder, and the solid and liquid phases are separated. A second antibody which is specific either to antibody or the solid phase antibody-substance complex is then added to the liquid phase. This second antibody is non cross-reactive with individual complex components. The amount of labelled first antibody bound to second antibody is then determined.
