A UV module for deactivating biologically contaminated surfaces in an interior of a device includes: a carrier; a radiation source affixed to the carrier and configured to emit UV radiation; and a control unit connected to the radiation source, wherein the control unit is configured to receive and process at least one information item to activate the radiation source to emit UV radiation based on the at least one information item. A system comprises such a UV module wherein the device is configured for the handling and/or examination of samples comprising biological material and has an interior into which the UV module can be introduced. A method for deactivating biologically contaminated surfaces in an interior of a device for the handling and/or examination of samples comprising biological material includes using the device.

UV module, system, and method for deactivating biologically contaminated surfaces in an interior of a device

A temperature-control device for receiving a reaction vessel having a heat-insulated interior space and which is covered by a lid. The reaction vessel has a hollow body and a cap, this hollow body being closed on one side by a base. The base contacts a heatable heating block in order to heat a sample located in the reaction vessel. The hollow body is surrounded by a heatable heating body which communicates with the lid via a heat-conducting contact region so that the heating body heats the hollow body directly and heats the cap indirectly via the lid.

Temperature-control device having a reaction vessel

Cuvette, comprising a first flat plate () and a second flat plate (), both of which in a closed state of the cuvette are positioned so as to be situated opposite parallel to each other and at which there is at least one transparent first measuring surface () and at least one transparent second measuring surface (), which define in pairs a measuring space (), in which a liquid sample solution having a drop volume can be held by means of its surface tension and capillary forces. At least the second measuring surface () of each one of the measuring spaces () is a stepped surface, which has at least two plane-parallel partial measuring surfaces (), which are connected to each other by means of a setting surface (), so that the partial measuring surfaces () exhibit different vertical distances (b, b) from the first measuring surface ().

Cuvette

The invention relates to a device that allows a target nucleic acid to be detected in a homogeneous batch using two different detection formats. The device comprises at least two heatable sample blocks and a reaction cartridge which contains a base () and at least one film () sealing the base (), wherein the film () comprises a surface () that is not connected to the base () and said surface () forms a volume () for media transfer or at least one reaction chamber (). The device can be used in particular for mobile gene diagnostics under field conditions.

Device for detecting nucleic acids

A mobile rapid test system for nucleic acid analysis. A method comprising the steps of amplification of the nucleic acids by means of rapid-PCR technology, conversion of a double-stranded amplification product into a single-stranded DNA fragment, hybridization with a labeled probe and detection of the nucleic acids on a lateral-flow test strip. A device comprising a reaction cavity which preferably consists of a thin film, inlet and outlet openings for the reaction cavity, one or more heatable sample blocks which are connected to miniaturized cooling bodies and a window for reading off the result. The lateral-flow test strip is a component of the mobile rapid test system. Operation of the instrument system requires no external power source, but only batteries or a rechargeable battery.

Mobile rapid test system for nucleic acid analysis

A heating and magnet module for a device for the purpose of purifying nucleic acids, having a plate assembly which has a heating plate, and a magnet carrier plate. The heating plate and the magnet carrier plate can be moved vertically relative to each other between two end positions, in opposition to a spring force. A vessel arrangement is placed on the heating plate, having row or matrix form vessels. One magnet of the magnet carrier plate is functionally assigned to each of these.
