Automated Sample-Reagent Loader for Use with the GeMSAEC Fast Analyzer

Abstract

Abstract With a newly developed automated sample-reagent loader, for use with a GeMSAEC Fast Analyzer, a 15-place GeMSAEC transfer disk can be automatically loaded with reagent and samples in 3.25 min; manual loading methods required 15 min. The resulting precision and accuracy is equal to or better than that for manual methods of loading. Sample carryover of the system was decreased, and is about 1%.
