Abstract: The invention relates to a method of analysing a sample, comprising the analysis of clinical-chemical parameters and the analysis of immunodiagnostic parameters in a fully automatic analysis apparatus, wherein the analysis apparatus comprises a pipetting apparatus, at least one holder for a reagent cartridge containing the components necessary for carrying out the analysis, a holding apparatus for a measurement cell, at least one measurement cell, with each reagent cartridge being associated with a measurement cell, a holding apparatus for a sample container containing sample, and a photometric or spectrometric measurement device. On the basis of a sample it is possible here for a plurality of different clinical-chemical and/or immunodiagnostic parameters to be determined, to which end a dedicated reagent cartridge is inserted into a holding apparatus of the analysis apparatus for each clinical-chemical or immunodiagnostic parameter to be determined.

Abstract: An assembly for selectively performing a clinical chemical test or an ELISA assay including a reagent cartridge with a housing 11 having at least one cavity 12, 13, 14 that contains a reaction or diluting component and having a recess 15 in which a solid phase 20 to which an antigen or antibody can be coupled is inserted into the recess 15 of the housing 11. The assembly also includes at least one measuring cell, wherein a measuring cell is assigned to each reagent cartridge and wherein the reagent cartridge and the measuring cell assigned to it are in a linear assembly in an analytical device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a reagent cartridge 10 for an assembly for selectively performing a clinical chemical test or an ELISA assay comprising a housing 11 having at least one cavity 12, 13, 14 that contains a reaction or diluting component and having a recess 15 in which a solid phase 20 to which an antigen or antibody can be coupled is inserted into the recess 15 of the housing 11. It is particularly advantageous if the reagent cartridge 10 comprises three cavities 12, 13, 14 and the reagent cartridge 10 can be used for analyzing clinical chemical parameters, for analyzing immunodiagnostic parameters, for providing additional reagents, and as a diluting cartridge.
