Automated apparatus for carrying out biological, biochemical or physicochemical determinations, which consists essentially of an automatic machine for the preparation of solutions intended for these determinations, and of a measuring apparatus, these being connected to a single computer. This apparatus is intended in particular for the determination of antibiotics by turbidimetry.

An artificial kidney comprising a haemodialyser 16 connected to a dialysis liquid circuit. The latter can be entirely integrated, that is to say that the functions previously performed by a plurality of self-contained members connected to one another are now performed by a common unit consisting of a very small number of multifunctional components. This common unit is preferably disposable. A small console groups together, with their electric circuits, the re-usable means for controlling and checking the artificial kidney.

Artificial kidney with integrated dialysate circuit

A device for automatically carrying out the withdrawal and deposition of core samples of semi-solid media in which one or more hollow punches are mounted for movement in three mutually perpendicular directions, so that the punch can be brought above and lowered into the media, a vacuum applied to suck the media into a chamber in the punch, the punch then being raised and moved to a position above a second media, the vacuum then being removed and compressed air applied after the punch has been lowered over the other media, thereby to push the sample removed from the first media from the punch. The operations can all be controlled automatically.

Device for carrying out withdrawals of samples from semi-solid media

An artificial kidney comprising a haemodialyser (a) associated with and preferably integrated into a common unit D adapted to be connected simultaneously to a patient P, to a container 34 of fresh and/or used dialysis liquid, and to a controlling and checking console (h). The disposable common unit can perform all the functions necessary for a treatment. These functions are not performed by self-contained members, but by a small number of flexible multifunctional parts, such as elements 14 and 15, each cooperating with rigid parts such as parts 10, 11, 12 and 13.

For a fluid chromatography apparatus including a precolumn and an analytical column, a device is provided with means for operably connecting said precolumn and column, said connecting means comprising a body member provided with support surfaces for a column inlet and a precolumn outlet, and said body member including a plurality of passages adapted to independently functionally interconnect said precolumn outlet and said column inlet with each other, and individually independently with fluid inlet and/or outlet means, either internally or externally.
