  • Patent number: 8906321
    Abstract: A reagent kit comprising: a reagent container assembly with at least one reagent container, wherein the reagent container has at least one container body and at least one closure which can be mounted or provided on the container body. The closure comprises a closure base member and a lid which is mounted movably on the base member for movement at least between a closed lid position and another lid position, and an in-transit securing means mountable in a locking position on the reagent container and which is movable relative to the reagent container from the locking position into a release position. The in-transit securing means, when in the locking position, secures the lid in the closed lid position. By moving the in-transit securing means from the locking position into the release position, the lid is moved from the closed lid position into the other lid position.

  • Publication number: 20120264624
    Abstract: A method for detecting analytes in a sample liquid is provided in which the sample liquid is subjected to a mixing treatment on a surface of a support having in particular immobilized reactants, wherein an in particular trough-like vessel with an essentially flat bottom as a support surface for the immobilized reactants is used as the vessel for the sample liquid. The sample liquid is moved relative to the immobilized reactants by an oscillating movement of the vessel during the mixing treatment in one direction, typically along a line or a curve. In addition, a device is provided for carrying out the method according to the present disclosure.

  • Patent number: 7790108
    Abstract: The invention relates to a reagent cartridge for receiving containers. These each contain particle-charged reagents and particle-free reagents. The container receiving the particle-charged reagent is received so as to be able to rotate. The reagent cartridge comprises interconnectable cartridge parts which form containers and which, in the interconnected state, ensure that the container receiving the particle-charged reagent is mounted so as to be able to rotate.
