Description

Foreliggende oppfinnelse vedrører en transparentbeholder som skal anvendes i mikrobiologisk diagnostikk, hvilken skal fylles hhv. er fyllt med fast næringsmédium. The present invention relates to a transparent container to be used in microbiological diagnostics, which is to be filled or is filled with solid nutrient medium.

I mikrobiologisk diagnostikk er det ofte nødvendig å obser-vere lysere soner eller farveforandringer for påvirkning av mikroorganismer, spesielt i spesielle faste næringsmedier, f. eks. i agaret (f. eks. hemolysesoner, lysere soner av lipo-r lytiske reaksjoner). For sikkert å kunne vurdere må det av nærliggende grunner anvendes gjennomsiktige beholdere. Plas^-seres flere slike beholdere ved siden av hverandre, oppstår fare for at næringsbestanddeler kan diffundere fra en beholder over veggen inn i nabobeholderen. In microbiological diagnostics, it is often necessary to observe lighter zones or color changes for the influence of microorganisms, especially in special solid nutrient media, e.g. in the agar (e.g. hemolysis zones, lighter zones of lipo-r lytic reactions). To be able to assess safely, transparent containers must be used for obvious reasons. If several such containers are placed next to each other, there is a risk that nutrients can diffuse from one container over the wall into the neighboring container.

Oppgaven for foreliggende oppfinnelse var å tilveiebringe en beholder med flere kammere inneholdene fast næringsmédium som ikke har den ovenfor nevnte ulempe. The task for the present invention was to provide a container with several chambers containing solid nutrient medium which does not have the above-mentioned disadvantage.

Ifølge oppfinnelsen løses denne oppgave ved at de enkelte kammere er slik anordnet at åpning av et kammer peker oppover, mens åpningen til nabokammeret peker nedover. Kammerene kan herunder være anordnet så ofte man vil ved siden av hverandre. According to the invention, this task is solved by the individual chambers being arranged in such a way that the opening of one chamber points upwards, while the opening of the neighboring chamber points downwards. The chambers below can be arranged next to each other as often as desired.

Foreliggende oppfinnelse yedrører følgelig en gjennomsiktig beholder som er fyllt eller skal fylles med fast næringsmédium, hvilket erkarakterisert vedat flere kammere hvor åpningen til et kammer peker oppover, mens åpningen til et nabokammer peker nedover. The present invention therefore concerns a transparent container which is filled or is to be filled with solid nutrient medium, which is characterized by several chambers where the opening of one chamber points upwards, while the opening of a neighboring chamber points downwards.

Som fast næringsmédium for beholderen ifølge oppfinnelsen, kommer spesielt agar på tale, hvorunder like eller forskjellige agarer kan anvendes. As a solid nutrient medium for the container according to the invention, agar in particular comes into question, under which the same or different agars can be used.

Den gjennomsiktige beholder består fortrinnsvis av et plastmateriale så som polysteren eller polyetylen. The transparent container preferably consists of a plastic material such as polystyrene or polyethylene.

Selv om diffusjon fra et kammer til det andre ikke er praktisk utelukket, kan man som ytterligere dif f us j onsbarriere korjru- Although diffusion from one chamber to the other is not practically excluded, as an additional diffusion barrier, corrjru-

gere kammernes utvendige sider. gere the outer sides of the chambers.

En særlig foretrukket beholder ifølge foreliggende oppfinnelse består av to kammere og er forbundet med lukningen av et rør som det stikker inn i. A particularly preferred container according to the present invention consists of two chambers and is connected to the closure of a tube into which it protrudes.

Særlig foretrukket er derfor innen rammen av foreliggende oppfinnelse en anordning for påvisning av mikroorganismer, bestående av et gjennomsiktig rør utstyrt med en lukning, på hvis lukning en bærer er festet som stikker inn i røret, og som består av to kammere, hvilke erkarakterisert vedat den ene kammeråpning rekker oppover, mens den andre kammeråpning rekker nedover. Fig. 1 viser i perspektiv en beholder ifølge oppfinnelsen av polysteren med 4 kammere. Particularly preferred within the framework of the present invention is therefore a device for the detection of microorganisms, consisting of a transparent tube equipped with a closure, on the closure of which a carrier is attached which sticks into the tube, and which consists of two chambers, which are characterized by the one chamber opening extends upwards, while the other chamber opening extends downwards. Fig. 1 shows in perspective a container according to the invention made of polyester with 4 chambers.

Fig. 2 viser snittet langs linjen A-B. Fig. 2 shows the section along the line A-B.

Fig. 3 viser i perspektiv en beholder ifølge oppfinnelsen av polystyren med 4 kammere, hvis utvendige sider er korrugert, hvilket gjøres tydelig ved de prikkede flater. Fig. 3 shows in perspective a container according to the invention made of polystyrene with 4 chambers, the outer sides of which are corrugated, which is made clear by the dotted surfaces.

En slik beholder med fire eller x-antall kammere egner seg spesielt for laboratorier. Ved fylling av kammerne må først de fylles, hvis åpninger peker oppover, hvoretter beholderen snues etteråt agaren er stivnet, hvorpå de andre kammere fylles. Fig. 4 viser i perspektiv en beholder ifølge oppfinnelsen av polyetylen med 2 kammere. Such a container with four or x number of chambers is particularly suitable for laboratories. When filling the chambers, those whose openings point upwards must first be filled, after which the container is turned over after the agar has solidified, after which the other chambers are filled. Fig. 4 shows in perspective a container according to the invention made of polyethylene with 2 chambers.

Fig. 5 viser et snitt langs linjen C-D. Fig. 5 shows a section along the line C-D.

Fig. 6 viser i perspektiv en beholder ifølge oppfinnelsen med polyetylen med 2 kammere, hvis utvendige sider er korrugert, hvilket gjøres tydelig ved de prikkede flater. Fig. 6 shows in perspective a container according to the invention with polyethylene with 2 chambers, the outer sides of which are corrugated, which is made clear by the dotted surfaces.

I IN

Fig. 7 viser en beholder ifølge fig. 4 méd anordninger for feste til skrulukningen av et rør. Foran de to kammere (1, 2) er det utformet en plan polyetylenplate (3), som er utstyrt med to stifter (4), hvilke passer inn i to tilsvarende for-dypninger av skrulukningen. Fig. 8 viser røret (5) med skrulukning (6) med fordypningene (7) og stiftene (4) som befinner seg deri, den plane polyetylenplate (3) og de to næringskammere (1) og (2). Ved lukning av røret påskrues skrulukningen (6) på skrugjenget. Fig. 7 shows a container according to fig. 4 with devices for attachment to the screw closure of a pipe. In front of the two chambers (1, 2) a flat polyethylene plate (3) is designed, which is equipped with two pins (4), which fit into two corresponding depressions of the screw closure. Fig. 8 shows the tube (5) with screw closure (6) with the recesses (7) and the pins (4) located therein, the flat polyethylene sheet (3) and the two nutrient chambers (1) and (2). When closing the pipe, screw the screw closure (6) onto the screw thread.

Beholderen ifølge fig. 8 egner seg spesielt for transport The container according to fig. 8 is particularly suitable for transport

og etterfølgende undersøkelse av mikroorganismer i labora-torium. and subsequent examination of micro-organisms in the laboratory.

Fyllingen av de to kammere skjer i likhet med fyllingen The two chambers are filled in the same way as the filling

av en beholder med 4 eller flere kammere. Fortrinnsvis skjer fyllingen helautomatisk. of a container with 4 or more chambers. Preferably, the filling is fully automatic.
