A probe assembly for aspirating and delivering liquids includes a liquid line having a liquid line end and a pipette configured to be in fluid communication with the liquid line, the pipette configured to aspirate and dispense liquids when the probe assembly is devoid of connections to external liquid sources other than liquids being aspirated or dispensed, the liquid line end having a first portion of a dynamic coupler configured to be dynamically coupled to a second portion of a dynamic coupler, and the second portion of the dynamic coupler configured to be in fluid communication with a liquid source external to the probe assembly. Other probe assemblies, testing apparatus, and methods are disclosed.

Probe apparatus, assemblies, and methods for aspirating and dispensing liquids

A computer-implemented method for detecting a failure of a device connected to a sensor is disclosed. The method includes a machine learning model receiving a trace signal from the sensor indicating a status of the device, the machine learning model encoding the trace signal into a plurality of vector representations, and the machine learning model determining whether the trace signal is valid or invalid based on the plurality of vector representations.

Automatic sensor trace validation using machine learning

An analyzer system for in vitro diagnostics includes a sample handler module having a robot arm that delivers samples from drawers into carriers on a linear synchronous motor automation track. Samples are delivered via the automation track to individual track sections associated with individual analyzer modules. Analyzer modules aspirate sample portions directly from the sample carriers and perform analysis thereon.

Automated clinical analyzer system and method

Disclosed is a reagent dispenser apparatus. The reagent dispenser apparatus has a reagent container having a dispense port operable to open and close to dispense reagent. Dispense port may include a valve operable to dispense reagent from a bottom of the reagent container. Reagent dispensing apparatus, immunoassay apparatus and methods of operating the reagent dispenser apparatus are provided, as are other aspects.

Reagent dispensers, dispensing apparatus, and methods

The present invention discloses a section of tubing including a fluoropolmer tubular body which has an interior surface defining a fluid passage through the tubular body. At least a first portion of the interior surface has a first hydrophobicity which is less than that of the remainder of the tubular body. At least a first portion of the interior surface can have a molar ratio of fluorine to oxygen of no greater than 30 to 1. Products can include the tubular bodies of the present invention attachable to fluid processing instruments such as immunodiagnostic instruments. The present invention also discloses methods for manufacturing the disclosed tubular bodies.

Modified fluoropolymer tubing for robust fluid stream continuity and method of manufacture

An automated, refrigerated specimen management system (ARSIMS) to hold sealed and/or opened sample/specimen tubes and/or containers that can be in the pre-analytical, in-process, or post-analytical phase of processing. The ARSIMS ensures that each sample/specimen tube, whether it is sealed, capped, closed or open, can be stored at an ideal storage temperature according to the particular phase of processing and as appropriate for the combination of sample/specimen type and analyte(s) to be tested.
