Abstract: A diagnostic system with a handling system that has a loading bay to receive and hold a plurality of carriers. An identification device is configured to identify an identifying feature of the carriers to determine the type of contents loaded on each carrier. A transporter transports the carriers from the loading bay to a first or second location depending on the determined ty pe of contents on each carrier. The transporter has random access to the plurality of carriers in the loading bay. A diagnostic process is conducted using the contents. A carrier, such a for reagents, has one or more holding portions, at least one of which can be moved or rotated with respect to the body of the carrier for mixing or stirring the contents of a container coupl ed therewith. Also, a retention member can be associated with a positioning device, such as a carousel, to lock and unlock the carrier with respect thereto.

Abstract: A sample handling system includes a loading rack for receiving carriers with a plurality of test tubes holding samples. A robotic device transports a carri er with the samples to a positioner that moves the tubes within the carrier int o an aspiration position. After aspiration, the robotic device returns the carrier to the loading rack. The system provides for handling of stat sample s and automatic retesting of samples.

Abstract: A method of constructing at least a first process lane and a second process lane, both for determining an item of interest in a sample; the method includes the steps of: (a) defining an effective length representing a total traveled distance of a container, in which the item of interest in the sample is determined, along a process lane where a process step comprises a process for determining the item of interest in the sample is performed; (b) constructing the first process lane to have a first physical length and the effective length; and (c) constructing the second process lane to have a second physical length different from the first physical length and the effective length; the sample is in particular a body fluid, for example, blood, on which tests are to be carried out for a component in the fluid, as part of the determination of the health of a person from whom the sample is obtained.

Abstract: The embodiments disclosed relate to determination of an item of interest in a sample. One embodiment relates to a structure which comprises a process path. The process path comprises a process lane including a process step performance lane where a process step is performed, and a process step avoidance lane where the process step is avoided. A first prime mover is operatively connected with the process path for moving a container holding the sample along the process path. A first pipetting system is operatively associated with the process path for introducing the sample to the container. A second pipetting system is operatively associated with the process path for introducing a reagent to the container. A device is operatively connected with the process path and is selectively engagable with the container for mixing the sample and the reagent in the container. A second prime mover is operatively connected with the process path for selectively positioning the container in a selected one of the process step performance lane and the process step avoidance lane. A reader is operatively connected with the process path for determining the item of interest in the sample based upon a reaction between the sample and the reagent; the embodiments disclosed also related to determination of an item of interestin a sample. In one method, a process path comprising a process lane including a process step performance lane where a process step is performed, and a process step avoidance lane where the process step is avoided is provided. A container holding the sample is moved along the process path. The sample is introduced to the container. A reagent is introduced to the container. The sample and the reagent are mixed in the container. The container is selectively positioned in a selected one of the process step performance lane and the process step avoidance lane. The item of interest in the sample is determined based upon a reaction between the sample and the reagent; embodiments also described herein provide methods of performing a process for determining an item of interest in a sample. In one embodiment, a container for holding the sample is accepted in a process lane where a process step is selectively automatically performed on the sample in the container. The process step is selectively automatically performed on the sample in the container. An effective length of the process lane is maintained constant while a physical length of the process lane is selectively varied.
