Abstract: The present disclosure pertains to a system for separating plasma and/or serum from blood. The system is configured to separate plasma and/or serum from between about 20 and about 50µl of blood. Separating plasma and/or serum from that amount of blood may be useful during a bilirubin level estimation in newborn babies. The system alleviates the need to centrifuge a sample of blood to separate the blood plasma and/or serum. The system is configured such that the separated serum is held by the system during an optical analysis to estimate bilirubin levels, thus eliminating the need to transfer the serum sample to a cuvette for analysis. In some embodiments, the system comprises a cartridge body, a filter, a serum pathway, an analysis port, a negative pressure source, a suction connector port, and/or other components.

Abstract: An inspection system is configured for use with a conveyer apparatus including carrier bars. Each carrier bar conveys pellet-shaped articles along a predetermined path. The inspection system includes at least one camera unit for sensing a predetermined characteristic of the pellet-shaped articles, a removal unit, and a controller. The removal unit, downstream from the at least one camera unit, removes selected pellet-shaped article(s) from the carrier bar(s) depending on whether the characteristic is sensed by the at least one camera unit. The controller is in communication with the at least one camera unit and the removal unit. The controller provides a signal to the removal unit in accordance with the sensed characteristic. The removal unit includes a rotatable ejection drum having extended vacuum nozzles along its length, equal to the number of articles conveyed in each carrier bar. Each vacuum nozzle selectively removes article(s) from the carrier bar(s) by suction.

Abstract: Systems and methods for analysis of samples, and in certain embodiments, microfluidic sample analyzers configured to receive a cassette containing a sample therein to perform an analysis of the sample are described. The microfluidic sample analyzers may be used to control fluid flow, mixing, and sample analysis in a variety of microfluidic systems such as microfluidic point-of-care diagnostic platforms. Advantageously, the microfluidic sample analyzers may be, in some embodiments, inexpensive, reduced in size compared to conventional bench top systems, and simple to use. Cassettes that can operate with the sample analyzers are also described.
