Abstract: An aspirating system for caps of sample containers including a suction duct, a partial-vacuum space formed by a collecting container, and a blower. The blower, when operated, produces a partial vacuum in the collecting container. The container is fitted at its lower side with a closing device.

Abstract: An Agent for the removal of turbidity and biological samples including 0.5-10 mM Phenol, 0.5-15% polyoxyethylated triglyceride and at least one non-ionic tenside in a range of 0.5-15% capable of dissolving the polyoxyethylated triglyceride.

Abstract: Agent for the removal of turbidity in biological samples comprising 0.5-10 mM Phenol, 0.5-15% polyoxyethylated triglyceride and at least one non-ionic ten-side in a range of 0.

Abstract: A liquid reagent for detecting creatine kinase activity. The liquid reagent includes G6PDH, hexokinase, creatine phosphate, glucose, ADP, NAD(P) and thioglycerol, which are split into two separate batches of reagents for storage. G6PDH is contained in one batch, and thioglycerol together with a further substance is contained in the other batch. The batches of reagents are mixed together prior to use for detection purposes.

Abstract: A laboratory primary sample distributor equipped with a sorter device removing receptacles containing lab samples fitted with destination coding and arriving on a conveyor belt after having code-reading, and with a sorter gripper that transfers the receptacles into one of several destination transport means intended for different destinations. The sorter gripper is designed to simultaneously pick up several receptacles.

Abstract: A laboratory primary sample distributor has a source zone for the input of coded receptacles containing samples and delivered in input magazines. In a distribution mode under the control of a control unit, a conveyor belt moves the receptacles from the source zone through a reading system which reads the receptacle codes in a destination zone wherein there are destination transport means. A transfer device transfers the receptacles onto the conveyor belt and a sorter device removes the receptacles from the conveyor belt and deposits them into the destination transport means. The control unit also has an archive mode during which the conveyor belt runs backward relative to the distribution mode, the sorter device transfers receptacles from the destination transport means onto the conveyor belt and the transfer device transfers receptacles from the conveyor belt into archive magazines.
