Abstract: A handling device for samples and reagents to be used in testing in a system. Carriers of samples and reagents are loaded on a platform which detects the presence of, and proper loading of, such carriers. The carriers are moved from the platform by a transporter to a bar code reader for identification. A reagent container is rotated during reading to facilitate identification. The transporter further moves identified reagent carriers to a carousel on which the carriers automatically secured for storage awaiting use in testing. The carousel rotates, and selected reagent containers rotate on the rotating carousel, during storage.

Abstract: The invention relates a method of constructing at least a first structure and a second structure both for determining an item of interest in a sample, the method comprising the steps of:

(a) defining an effective length representing a total distance traveled by a reaction container during determination of an item of interest in a sample;
(b) constructing the first structure for determining an item of interest in a sample, the first structure having a first process lane having a first physical length and a first means for moving the reaction container the effective length along the first process lane during determination of an item of interest in a sample disposed within the reaction container; and
(c) constructing the second structure for determining an item of interest in a sample, the second structure having a second process lane having a second physical length different from the first physical length and a second means for moving the reaction container the effective length along the second process lane during determination of an item of interest in sample disposed within the reaction container.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a structure for performing a process for determining an item of interest in a sample, the structure comprising: a process step performance lane (62) accepting a container (15) for the sample where at least a process step for determining the item of interest is performed on the sample in the container (15); and a process step avoidance lane (64) accepting the container (15) where the at least one process step for determining the item of interest is avoided.
Also disclosed there is a method of performing a process for determining an item of interest in a sample, the method comprising the steps of: positioning a container (15) for the sample in a process step performance lane (62) where at least a process step for determining the item of interest is performed on the sample in the container (15); and positioning the container (15) in a process step avoidance lane (64) where the at least one process step for determining the item of interest is avoided.
