Embodiment Construction

[0089] figure 1 An exemplary embodiment of a pipetting device is shown in the form of a functional block, the pipetting device 10 being connected to an analysis robot 30 . In fact, the pipetting device is under the control of the analytical robot for some pipetting steps to be performed by the operator before and possibly also during the performance of the analysis by the analytical robot.

[0090] Such an analysis automaton may be, for example (but not limited to), the VIDAS sold by the applicant or Micro VIDAS Immunoassay automaton.

[0091] The pipetting device 10 mainly comprises a microcontroller 12 which processes data relevant for the analysis. Thus, the microcontroller 12 can be linked between all components of the pipetting device 10 . Another function of the microcontroller 12 is to process all or some of the data obtained by the data acquisition means.

[0092] In the present case, the data acquisition means comprise a CCD or CMOS sensor 14 . The sensor must...

Abstract

The invention relates to a device (10) for automatically pipeting a liquid sample substantially comprising a) at least one means (16) for taking dispensing said liquid sample, b) at least one liquid sample receiving compartment for receiving the liquid sample or the part thereof taken by said taking dispensing means (16), c) at least one data acquisition means (14), d) at least one data processing means (12, 32) incorporated into the pipeting device or located outside thereof and used for processing data acquired by the data acquisition means, e) at least one means for communicating between the pipeting device and a data recovering device, wherein said communications means transfers data between the data acquisition means and the data processing means (12, 32), when it is located outside,and f) at least one power supply means, wherein the data acquisition means is embodied in the form of a means for identifying the liquid sample and / or container(s) for receiving the liquid sample or the part thereof.

Description

technical field [0001] The technical field of the invention is pipetting devices or automatic pipettes. In particular, the present invention relates to automatic pipettes of the bioanalytical type including traceability (traceability) for safe and secure transfer of samples between containers and for said analysis. (traceability) integrated device. Background technique [0002] The field of diagnostics, especially medical diagnostics, is making continuous progress both in the modernization of technology and in the restraint of laboratories in terms of transparency. While it is true that modernization has a direct and positive effect on transparency, especially through the limitation of human intervention, it has to be noted that human intervention is always necessary. Specifically, while bioanalytical procedures are increasingly automated, at least human intervention is still necessary to place the sample into the analytical instrument. This integral step can form a sourc...
