Abstract

1357231 Centrifugal analysis; reagent pack; centrifugal separators BIO-DYNAMICS Inc 1 June 1971 [22 June 1970 27 Jan 1971] 18284/71 Heading B2P [Also in Division G1] Test apparatus comprises a container which may be in the form of a detachable pipette tip 55, (Fig. 14), a cap 62 to close the container, a housing for the container and cap and a centrifuge for centrifuging the housing containing the container and cap, the centrifuge being rotatable at two different speeds, and the cap being fitted on to the container in such a way that it can be detached from the container on centrifugation at the higer of these two speeds. In the embodiment shown, the housing comprises cuvette cassette 35 (Fig. 3) which comprises four cuvettes 36 initially sealed by tear strip 39 and provided with a data card. Each cuvette comprises an inner chassis (105, Fig. 18 not shown) having an opening (110) at one end for receiving a capped pipette tip containing a sample to be analysed, and an opening (115) at the other end to allow passage of the sample when centrifugal force forces the cap away from the pipette tip. The cuvette (Fig. 14) has a flattened end portion formed with two inner compartments 105A, 106 for sample and reference liquids. In the assembled cuvette, reagent and reference liquids contained in a series of connected bags 200, 201 are positioned around the chassis so that when on centrifugation the lower edge of each of the bags breaks open, reagent and reference liquids pass into compartments 105A, 106 respectively as shown in Fig. 14. There is reference to testing samples of blood and of water.
