Description

[0002] In ELISA experiments, a microplate reader is used to compare the color of samples, so as to display the detection results. Therefore, the position and angle of light entering the sample in the microplate reader are controlled, which is a way to control the detection error of the microplate reader. However, according to the working principle of the microplate reader, adding a stop solution to the sample or shaking the sample may generate bubbles in the sample.

Therefore, using a needle to prick the bubbles can eliminate the adverse effects, but the needle pricking method is only limited to small-scale use. When there are bubbles in most samples, the process of implementing the needle pricking method is necessarily complicated and difficult.
