Abstract:
The invention discloses a cover (4) for sealing a container (1) and preferably containers (W 1 ) for a well plate (W). The cover is comprised of at least a top layer (2) and a bottom layer (3) structured in a way to form a recloseable aperture. Preferably, 5 each of the layers (2, 3) comprise a recloseable aperture structured as flap, damper, baffle or butterfly valve respectively, wherein the recloseable apertures are arranged on top of each other. In a preferred embodiment of the invention a third moveable layer (9) is arranged between the top and the bottom layer (2, 3). By moving the middle layer (9), the aperture in the cover (4) can be closed.
Abstract:
A valve slider (1;35;53;65;79;97) for a microfluidic coupling device (63;77;95). The slider comprises a flat foil and is adapted for flow-controlling the flow within at least one flow path (5,7) of the microfluidic coupling device (63;77;95). The slider slides relatively to the microfluidic coupling device (63;77;95). The slider has at least one control element (3; 13) and controls the flow within the flow path (5,7).
Abstract:
A sample injector (40) configured to introduce a sample fluid into a mobile phase, wherein the mobile phase is to be driven by a mobile phase drive (20) through a separation unit (30) for separating compounds of the sample fluid in the mobile phase, wherein the sample injector (40) comprises a metering device (100) being operable for intaking a metered amount of the sample fluid into the sample injector (40), and a fluidic valve (90)being switchable for operating the sample injector (40) selectively in a flushing mode (600; 1300, 1500) in which the metering device (100) is switched at least temporarily into fluid communication with the mobile phase drive (20) so that the metering device (100) is flushed by the mobile phase being delivered by the mobile phase drive (20), or a separation mode(500; 1200) in which the metering device (100) is switched out of a fluidic path between the mobile phase drive (20) and the separation unit (30) so that the sample fluid is driven between the mobile phase drive (20) and the separation unit (30) for separating the compounds.
Abstract:
A fluidic device (200), comprising a planar structure (202) constituted by a plurality of laminated layers (212) and accommodating a fluid channel (204) extending up to a surface of the planar structure (202), and a female adapter piece(206) configured for a fluid-tight accommodation of a male adapter piece(208) having a fluid conduit (210), wherein the female adapter piece (206) is connected or connectable with the planar structure (202) so that, when the male adapter piece (208) is accommodated in the female adapter piece (206), the fluid conduit (210) is brought in fluid-tight fluid communication with the fluid channel (204), wherein the fluid channel (204) is exposed to the female adapter piece(206) at a lateral surface of the planar structure (202) at which the laminated layers (212) are exposed.
Abstract:
A degassing apparatus (27) for degassing a liquid (240) comprises a vacuum chamber (200), a liquid conveyance member (210) disposed in the vacuum chamber (200) and adapted for transporting the liquid (240), and a pump (220) adapted to evacuate the vacuum chamber (200). The vacuum chamber (200) comprises a vent (270) adapted for venting the vacuum chamber (200).
Abstract:
A supporting plate of a device is suggested. The device has at least one component and a housing for at least partly protecting the component. The supporting plate has at least one receiving element adapted for accepting the at least one component of the device in at least one of the following manners: in a form-closed manner, in a force-closed manner. The supporting plate is part of the housing.
Abstract:
