Abstract: A resonating needle is adapted to be used in a device for measuring and controlling the dosage of a small quantity of fluid, includes: a needle (1) adapted to contain said small quantity of fluid; a resonating element of the piezoelectric type (2), coupled to said needle and adapted to be energized in order to detect variations of oscillation parameters of the needle and of the resonating element for the purpose of determining the dosage measurement and control.
Abstract: A fluorescence and/or chemiluminescence measuring device and method, able to achieve a series of actions synchronously including placing reaction cup, injection, extraction, reading, releasing reaction cup and light block, and no extra arm for getting and releasing reaction cup is needed. A sliding cartridge drives the reaction cup to perform movement to achieve the actions above in turn. Moreover, it maximally ensures a consistence of distance and relative height between each reaction cup and the reading photomultiplier device, so as the operation speed is faster and easier.
