摘要:
Analysis system for the automatic analysis of body fluids for a plurality of different analytes (parameters). An analytical apparatus incorporates reaction vessels (8) which are transported on the apparatus to various handling stations (10 to 16). The system also includes liquid reagents, which are held in readiness on the apparatus in reagent vessels (9), their volume sufficing for a large number of analyses. In order to achieve a high degree of analytical accuracy with reduced probability of operating errors and without significant increasing of the overall system costs, a calibrator is stored ready for use in liquid form in a calibrator station (17) of the analytical apparatus, the calibration is initiated and carried out fully automatically (i.e. without human intervention) for the various parameters independently of one another. For the initiation of the calibration for a parameter, in at least one system-immanent calibration-influencing variable is determined and combined logically with a control value defined specifically for the respective parameter and the decision on the initiation of the calibration is taken automatically in accordance with the logic combination.

There is provided a system for the preparation of liquids from at least one solid and at least one liquid phase. The system is composed of a vessel in which the solid or solids are located and a drying chamber which is connected to the vessel or can be connected to the vessel. The drying chamber is separated from the vessel interior by a separating means which is permeable to water vapour but is impermeable to liquids. The system is suitable for the production of liquids from moisture-sensitive solids. These solids can be stored in the vessel since the air humidity in the interior is lowered by the desiccant. The preparation of the liquid by addition of a liquid phase can be carried out in one and the same vessel since the desiccant is separated from the vessel interior.

The invention relates to sensors for monitoring a medium, comprising an electromagnetic radiation source and a detector of electromagnetic radiation, the medium being located in the ray path between the electromagnetic radiation source and the detector and the refraction varying when the medium varies. The sensors are characterized by their ease of production. To that end, the electromagnetic radiation source and detector are disposed in at least one housing. Furthermore, either at least one region or at least one component of the housing consists of material which is transparent to electromagnetic radiation, the medium being located in the region or at the component of the housing. At least one wall of the region is so disposed or designed that the radiation for refraction impinges on or emerges from the surface at an angle which is different from 90°. In addition, the detector is at least one photo diode, such that, when the medium varies, the radiation either does not impinge or impinges on the photo diode.

The sensors are characterized by their ease of production. To that end, the electromagnetic radiation source and detector are disposed in at least one housing. Furthermore, the housing comprises two flat wall regions which are arranged at a mutual angle and are transparent to the electromagnetic radiation, such that these wall regions and the medium located thereat form a prism which refracts the electromagnetic radiation. In addition, the detector is at least a one-dimensional sensor comprising photo diodes for the refracted electromagnetic radiation, a spectrum which varies when the medium varies being detectable.
