摘要:
A system for managing information in a laboratory is disclosed. The system can receive sample information, the sample information including at least one sample identifier and sample order information. The system can send movement information to one or more robotics units based on at least the sample identifier. The system can perform, on at least one identified sample, one or more analytical functions to generate results data. The system can organize the results data based on the sample order information.

Method includes positioning a first carrier assembly on a system stage. The carrier assembly includes a support frame having an inner frame edge that defines a window of the support frame. The first carrier assembly includes a first substrate that is positioned within the window and surrounded by the inner frame edge. The first substrate has a sample thereon. The method includes detecting optical signals from the sample of the first substrate. The method also includes replacing the first carrier assembly on the system stage with a second carrier assembly on the system stage. The second carrier assembly includes the support frame and an adapter plate held by the support frame. The second carrier assembly has a second substrate held by the adapter plate that has a sample thereon. The method also includes detecting optical signals from the sample of the second substrate.

A method for defining an automated process which is to be carried out in a liquid handling system, wherein the liquid handling system comprises an outlet element (e.g. a pipette) for aspirating and/or dispensing a liquid volume, a numerically controlled movement apparatus for carrying out movements in connection with the aspiration/and or dispensing, and a controller for controlling the process, having the following steps: using a graphic user interface in order to enable the user to predetermine parameters which are to be used by the liquid handling system when carrying out one or several substeps of the process, wherein at least a first parameter is dependent on a second parameter in such a way that the first parameter is adjusted automatically by the system if the second parameter changes.

A method for visualizing historical pathogen sampling in a facility includes the following steps: (1) populating a plurality of sampling locations as a plurality of icons on a map of the facility; (2) receiving sampling data specifying a plurality of pathogen levels at the plurality of sampling locations; (3) assigning one of a plurality of colors to each of the plurality of sampling locations according to the plurality of pathogen levels; (4) coloring the pathogen sampling locations on the map with the assigned colors to form a frame; (5) repeating steps (2), (3), and (4) on at least three different occasions to form a sequence of frames; and (6) sequentially displaying the sequence of frames and an identification of the respective occasion at a constant rate.
摘要:
An automatic filter changer that automatically inserts and removes a filter from a fluidic path. Filters are introduced into the automatic filter changer in stacks. The lead filter and each stack is removed from its respective stack one by one by a filter separator. The separated filters are deposited onto a shuttle plate which moves the filters into their respective fluidic paths. Fluid couplers connect to each filter to complete their respective fluidic paths and allow fluids to be filtered before sampling. Once collection of the samples is complete, the filters are removed from the fluidic path and discarded or saved for reuse. The shuttle path is returned to its original position to receive new filters to repeat the process again. A graphic user interface is provided to allow the user to program a specific set of instructions to automate the entire process.

A display unit displays, on a single screen, a first display area configured from a first area corresponding to the position on a reagent disc at which a reagent container is disposed and a second display area configured from a second area corresponding to the position on a reagent loader at which a reagent container is disposed. A control unit changes the display state of the first area on the basis of whether a reagent container is placed at a position on the reagent disk corresponding to the first area and reagent information for the reagent accommodated in the placed reagent container and changes the display state of the second area on the basis of whether a reagent container is placed at a position on the reagent loader corresponding to the second area and reagent-container-conveyance-state information for the placed reagent container.
摘要:
System and method of dividing a window according to trail are provided. The system and the method record the moving trail of an indicating signal and then divide the window according to the moving trail into two independent blocks to display the file separately. By completing the procedures, the system and the method enable a user to divide a window according to a user-defined direction, and therefore further enhance the contrast effect between different parts of a file.
摘要:
A user interface for an instrument that processes samples from sample containers supported on a presentation unit. The user interface includes a presentation unit display that includes a graphical representation of the presentation unit. The presentation unit display receives inputs therein to define instructions for the processing of the samples by the instrument. The presentation unit display also displays a status while the samples are being processed.
摘要:
Various systems and methods of operating an analyte measurement device is provided. The device has a display, user interface, processor, memory and user interface buttons. In one example, one of the methods can be achieved by measuring an analyte with the analyte measurement device; displaying a value representative of the analyte; prompting a user to activate a test reminder; and activating the test reminder to remind a user to conduct a test measurement at a different time. Other methods and systems are also described and illustrated.
摘要:
An apparatus including a processor; a viewing device operatively connected to the processor; a memory storing a software program that when executed on the processor causes the processor to perform the following operations: defining a user interface on the viewing device, retrieving and visualising, in the user interface, a datum, or a plurality of data, relative to a same examination site; for retrieving a first image of a first support, of a first type, for microbiological culture, relative to a first microbiological sample coming from the examination site and enabling selective viewing of the first image in the user interface; retrieving a second image of a second support of a second and different type, for microbiological samples, relative to a second microbiological sample coming from the examination site and enabling selective viewing of the second image, to enable the user to make a combined use and evaluation, of the data and of the images.
