A fluid delivery device includes at least one area onto which at least one support element having at least one well may be placed in a defined position. The fluid delivery device further includes at least one pipetting device having a connector configured to releasably connect the at least one pipetting device with a disposable tip and with a fluid displacement element which enables aspiration and ejection of a defined volume of liquid to or from the disposable tip. The at least one pipetting element is movable in a vertical and preferably in at least one horizontal direction. The fluid delivery device also includes a blowing element that has at least one aperture coupled to a source of pressurized gas and is movable in a vertical and preferably at least one horizontal direction. A system includes such a fluid delivery device and the at least one support element.

Fluid delivery device and method for carrying out chemical or biological assays

The present invention concerns a method for determining the concentration of a protein in a gastrointestinal (GI) tract sample taken from a human or an animal. The present invention is characterized by the feature that a dilution of the sample in the buffered aqueous extraction medium in a range of 1:100 to 1:10,000 is obtained. The present invention leads to a significant improvement of the technical situation, and provides a simple, sensitive and specific determination tool of proteins in GI tract samples. The determination of proteins, e.g. calprotectin, elastases or hemoglobin, in GI tract samples leads to more accurate and reproducible results.

Method for determination of a protein

A tube for extracting, diluting and discharging a sample: able to control the amount of discharged diluted solution in the tube, after the sample has been diluted; that improves the hygienic conditions of discharging the sample; that enables introduction of a predetermined amount of a sample in any liquid or solid state; and that is able to transfer a specific amount of a diluted sample into another tube for further processing without any hygienic problems and with no risk of accidents.

Sample extracting, diluting and discharging device

The invention relates to methods for the determination of vitamin B6 in samples as well as to reagent compositions for assaying a sample for vitamin B6 and to a test kit suitable for carrying out the methods according to the present invention. Further, the invention relates to the use of such methods for the application to different analyzing devices such as micro-titer plate readers and fully automated clinical chemistry analyzers (autoanalyzers).

Method for the determination of the concentration of vitamin B6 in a sample

Methods to determine the concentration of gamma-hydroxy butyric acid (GHB) in a sample as well as compositions and a kit suitable for carrying out said methods. Also, the use of the methods for application on a microtiter plate or an auto-analyzer.
