Abstract: A luminometer includes a chassis protected by a cover whose interior is accessible past a closure flap, a detector for measuring photons with a measuring window, a platform for supporting specimen plates, fixed or able to be displaced along a system of orthogonal axes X, Y and Z, along at least one of the axes of the plane X or Y, and an electronic module for amplification and digitizing of data and an electronic module for processing these data, with the measuring detector being movable and the luminometer having elements for displacement in translation of this detector along the Z axis.

Abstract: Device for enabling at least one analysis to be performed automatically on various samples is provided with at least one head having at least one first subunit for sampling and distributing liquids, a working surface-for holding samples to be analyzed, reagents and reaction supports or vessels, a mechanical system for moving the at least one head within a horizontal plane above the working surface, at least one washing bowl to wash the at least one first subunit, at least one reading system to measure results of an analysis, and elements for controlling, checking and coordinating various stages of analysis. The device is particularly suitable for performing immunological tests.
