    Abstract: A disposable reaction vessel for performing nucleic acid amplification assay. The disposable reaction vessel has a penetrable cap that can be penetrated by an automated pipettor to aspirate a portion of an amplified reaction product. The disposable reaction vessel contains the reagents necessary to perform a nucleic acid amplification assay. A patient speciment is added to the unit dose reagents in the disposable reaction vessel and the penetrable cap is closed. The disposable reaction vessel containing the reaction mixture and the specimen undergoes amplification, typically by placing it in a thermal cycler. After amplification the intact disposable reaction vessel is transferred to an automated analyzer where an automated pipettor penetrates the closure membrane and aspirates a portion of the amplified sample for further processing, without removal of the reaction vessel cap. This avoids the generation of potentially contaminating aerosols or droplets.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for amplifying and detecting nucleic acid materials comprising the steps of: adding a sample suspected to contain a target nucleic acid material to an amplification vessel along with labeled reagents for amplification of the suspected target nucleic acid to from a reaction mixture; sealing the reaction mixture inside the vessel by closing a tightly sealing cap having a membrane that is penetrable by a pipettor probe; amplifying the target nucleic acid material within the vessel; removing a portion of the reaction mixture from the vessel for detection; and detecting the presence of amplified target nucleic acid by detection of the labeled reagents; wherein the removing is effected by piercing the membrane with the pipettor probe, aspirating the portion of the reaction mixture into the pipettor and dispensing the portion in a distinct detection compartment without uncapping the vessel, thereby avoiding drops or aerosols of the amplified material which might contaminate the environment, unreacted samples or reagents. The reaction vessel device for performing the nucleic acid amplification assay comprises:a tube of thermally stable polymeric material having an outer diameter dimensioned to fit into a thermal cycling apparatus, the tube having an opening to an interior; a cap for tightly sealing the opening of the tube, the cap including a puncturable membrane of not more than 0.0381 cm thickness, whereby the membrane allows sampling the amplified reaction product from the closed tube with an automated pipettor without opening the tube; and a flexible hinge that holds the cap to the tube and permits folding of the cap into the opening.

    Abstract: Un método para amplificar y detectar materiales de ácido nucleico, que comprende las etapas de: a. añadir una muestra sospechosa de contener un material de ácido nucleico objetivo a un recipiente de amplificación (10) junto con reactivos marcados para amplificación de dicho ácido nucleico objetivo sospechoso para formar una mezcla de reacción; b. sellar la mezcla de reacción dentro de dicho recipiente, como se muestra con preferencia en las figuras 2 y 3 (30), cerrando una tapa herméticamente sellada, como se muestra con preferencia en las figuras 2 y 3, (20), que tiene una membrana, como se muestra con preferencia en las figuras 2 y 3, (28), que es penetrable por una sonda de pipeta, donde el recipiente de amplificación, como se muestra con preferencia en las figuras 2 y 3 (10), tiene una bisagra replegable, como se muestra con preferencia en las figuras 2 y 3, (30); c. amplificar el material de ácido nucleico objetivo dentro de dicho recipiente (10); d. retirar una porción de la mezcla de reacción desde el recipiente de amplificación (10) para detección; y e. detectar la presencia de ácido nucleico objetivo amplificado por detección de dichos reactivos marcados; en el que la retirada se realiza perforando la membrana (28) de la tapa con una sonda de pipeta, aspirando la porción de la mezcla de reacción en la pipeta y dispersando la porción en un compartimiento de detección distinto sin destapar el recipiente de amplificación (10), evitando de esta manera que gotas o aerosoles del material amplificado puedan contaminar el medio ambiente, muestras no reaccionadas o reactivos.

    Abstract: Apparatus and method for performing a chemiluminescende assay involving the immobilization of a chemiluminescent reaction complex to a solid, porous element. The solid, porous element is preferably treated to provide an immobilizing interaction with the chemiluminescent reaction complex wherein the chemiluminescent reaction complex is thereby immobilized to the solid, porous element. The activating and reading of the chemiluminescent reaction are separately performed by evenly distributing a concentrated chemiluminescent activating solution to form a puddle on the surface of the porous element to which the chemiluminescent reaction complex is immobilized.
