    摘要: The present invention provides a bar-code driven, completely automated, microplate-based analyzer system for performing chemical, biochemical or biological assays. The analyzer is a modular, bench-top instrument that compactly integrates subsystems for sample dispensing, liquid handling, microplate transport, thermal incubation, vortexing, solid phase separation and optical reading. An internal processor is included for automating the instrument, and a user interface to facilitate communication with the operator via a touch-sensitive liquid-crystal display (LCD), and communicating with a remote network via multiple protocols. The analyzer includes firmware resident within the processing system and the user interface allows the operator to select pre-defined assay batch protocols and the user interface is configured in such as way so as to restrict an operator from programming the firmware.

    摘要: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for controlling the detailed strain field imposed on a guided-wave Bragg grating. The spectral and temporal form of radiant energy traveling down optical fibers is important in many fields, including communications and sensing. The spectral distribution and center wavelength of short optical pulses is of particular importance. In the communication field the information carrying capacity of an optical fiber can be limited by the dispersion experienced by short pulses as they propagate along an optical fiber. Chirped fiber optic intracore Bragg gratings can be used to compensate for this dispersion. However, a grating with a different degree of chirp would be required for each particular communication system. This control of the intra-grating strain distribution allows the grating to be tuned over a broad spectral range or chirped in a manner that permits it to compensate for a wide range of dispersion with or without a shift in the grating center wavelength. In addition, precise control of the strain distribution along a grating can be used to manufacture a variety of spectral filters.

    摘要: The present invention provides a microplate-based assay kit that incorporates all assay reagents and standards in a simple and efficient format and may be used in biochemical assays. The assay kit includes pre-filled, pre-sealed and barcoded microplates with a standard physical footprint for use in a microplate-based automated analyzer system which enables simple and efficient operation by an unskilled user via per-use factory-sealed and barcoded reagent and calibrator microplates. Such microplates allow the user to run a broad test menu without the need to monitor the arrangement and supply of internally stored reagents and standards, thus greatly simplifying the user experience and eliminating the need for highly skilled users.
