Abstract: A multichannel optical monitoring system for monitoring the spectral transmission of a plurality of samples. A plurality of light beams are generated and a plurality of optical monitoring stations are arranged along a pathway, each station having an optical path formed by one of the light beams transverse to the pathway and along which optical characteristics are monitored. A drive mechanism moves a plurality of reaction wells, each containing a reaction volume, along the pathway from station to station so that respective reaction volumes dwell periodically in each optical path for transmitting a respective one of the light beams. A diffraction grating is arranged for diffracting the beams transmitted by respective ones of the reaction volumes. The diffracted beams are focussed and at least one array of photodetectors is positioned for receiving the diffracted and focussed beams for producing electrical signals representing the spectral content of the diffracted beams. An electronic circuit detects the electrical signals of the array, which signals may be stored for further processing and evaluation.

Abstract: A sample handling system for an optical evaluation instrument. A cuvette storage mechanism (10) is provided for storing a plurality of cuvettes (50), each of which has a plurality of reaction wells. A temperature controlled housing (26) is provided for storing a plurality of reagent containers each containing a respective reagent, and a plurality of sample collection tubes, containing a fluid sample and each presenting an optically scannable code identifying the sample and a test to be performed on the sample. A programming station (30) is provided for optically reading the code (32) presented by the respective sample collection tubes for programming the instrument with a test to be performed. A sample insertion station (14) includes a mechanism (36) for aspirating a portion of the sample from a sample collection tube and for dispensing the aspirated sample portion into a reaction well of a cuvette. A first transporter (28) transports the sample collection tubes first to the programming station (30) and then to the sample insertion station (14). A second transporter (12) transports the cuvettes through the sample insertion station (14) and the reagent station (16, 18 and 20) and onto the monitoring means (22).
