Embodiment Construction

[0025] The following discussion relates to certain exemplary embodiments of methods for maintaining multiple types of clinical immunodiagnostic (e.g., immunohematology) test elements (such as cards or cassettes) in a single container (such as a cassette or sleeve) and allow random access to any such card or box in any container, while allowing quick determination of the card / box type inventory in all sleeves. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the inventive concepts described herein also relate literally to any other form of functionality for supporting a plurality of containers containing test elements, such as sleeves, racks, or supports with positioning guides. Sexual clinical analyzer. Furthermore, certain terms are used throughout this discussion to provide a frame of reference with respect to the drawings. These terms should not be viewed as limiting unless expressly indicated in the text.

Abstract

An immunodiagnostic test method includes holding a selection of immunological test elements or consumables in one or more containers attached to or positioned in the analyzer and providing random access to any test element therein. The container can hold multiple types of test elements in compartments or slots. Through sensing of a test element position in its slot, the detection mechanism of the invention provides for random access to multiple types of test elements in any sleeve and within a single sleeve, and provides efficient inventory control. The method increases the number of test element types that may be loaded onto an analyzer and maintains fast determination of inventory.
