Abstract
A device for introducing a sample into an analyzer comprises a sample container for storing a sample solution, a fluid delivery line for delivering a volume of the sample solution from the sample container to the analyzer, and a washing fluid container for storing a washing fluid for delivery to the analyzer by the fluid delivery line to wash the fluid delivery line. A moving mechanism moves the fluid delivery line between the sample container and the washing fluid container in response to a control signal from a control apparatus to sequentially insert the fluid delivery line into the sample container and the washing fluid container for delivery of the sample solution and the washing fluid to the analyzer.
