A peristaltic pump and an analyzer for testing a biological sample, wherein the pump includes a pump head that is constructed as a screwless assembly, wherein the pump includes a bayonet and/or a beam coupling, and/or wherein rollers of the pump are configured to be pivoted about corresponding pivot axes that intersect with the roller axes.

Peristaltic pump and analyzer for testing a sample

An analysis system and a method for testing a biological sample, wherein an operating instrument is provided which preferably can be separated from an analysis device with respect to a data connection and/or wirelessly connected to the analysis device.

Analysis system for testing a sample

A fluid sensor for detecting a content change, in particular a liquid front, in a sensor portion of a fluid system, wherein the fluid sensor includes at least one sensor electrode, the sensor electrode having an electrode potential and a capacitive behavior, the sensor electrode thus being capable to store electrical energy in an electrical field formed by the sensor electrode when being charged, causing the electrode potential to change accordingly, a capacitance value of the sensor electrode varies when the content changes, the fluid sensor includes evaluation electronics, the evaluation electronics including a unidirectional electrical device (UED), and an AC source, the AC source is coupled via the UED to the sensor electrode to charge the sensor electrode, and the evaluation electronics include a discharge path coupled to the sensor electrode for discharging the sensor electrode.

Fluid sensor, system for testing a sample and process

An analysis device and method for testing a biological sample using a receivable cartridge having at least one actuator for actuating a valve of the cartridge. The actuator has a pneumatically loaded membrane and an actuation element that is coupled to the membrane, the return movement into an unactuated position being performed preferably as a result of restoring forces of the membrane.

Analysis device and method for testing a sample

An analysis system and a method for testing, in particular, a biological sample, the sample and/or analytes of the sample being temperature-controlled in advance or denatured immediately before the test, and/or being heated, the heat being transferred through a chip of a sensor apparatus.

Method and analysis system for testing a sample

A method and a circuit arrangement for testing and/or calibration, the circuit arrangement having a sensor electrode and a first and second circuit unit coupled thereto, the second circuit unit having a capacitor, and the sensor electrode being kept at a specified electrical target potential by the capacitor and the sensor electrode being coupled such that matching of the electrical potential is made possible. The second circuit unit is configured such that, if the electrical potential of the capacitor is outside a reference range, second circuit unit detects this event and brings the capacitor to a reference potential. For the purpose of testing and/or calibration, a reference current source is provided for injecting an adjustable reference current into the sensor electrode, a reference current injected into another circuit unit is measured, and/or a reference current is injected into different portions of the sensor electrode.

Testing and calibration of a circuit arrangement

An analysis device and a method for testing a biological sample uses a cartridge that is received in the analysis device and valves of the cartridge being opened automatically.

A method for producing a plurality of measurement regions on a chip, and a chip having a plurality of measurement regions which is obtainable by the method.

Method for producing a plurality of measurement regions on a chip, and chip having a plurality of measurement regions

An analysis system and a method for testing a biological sample according to which, before the start of testing, the amount of energy remaining in an energy storage of the analysis device is compared with an energy requirement for the test, and the test is only started if the amount of energy meets the energy requirement, and/or a temperature-control apparatus designed for temperature-controlling the cartridge is controlled depending on an interior space temperature of the analysis device.

Method for controlling an analysis device and analysis system

An analysis system for testing a biological sample wherein a sensor cover can be or is pneumatically lowered onto a sensor apparatus in order to detect an analyte of the sample.

Anlaysis system for testing a sample

A cartridge, an analysis system, and a method for testing a sample, such as, environmental, food or biological sample, wherein the cartridge has two memory elements that are different and/or can be read out by different methods and which correspond to the cartridge or to the batch thereof.

Cartridge and analysis system for testing a sample

A cartridge, an analysis system, a method and a computer program product for testing a sample, such as, environmental, food or biological sample, wherein the cartridge has two memory means that are different and/or can be read out by different methods and which correspond to the cartridge or to the batch thereof.
