Title:
ASSAY PREPARATION SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2008036794
Kind Code:
B1
Abstract:
A fluid assay preparation system is provided which includes a reusable reaction apparatus and a plurality of fluidic lines coupled to the reusable reaction apparatus. The reusable reaction apparatus includes a process vessel with a tapered floor and the fluidic lines extend into the process vessel a distance less than approximately 1.0 mm from a bottommost surface of the tapered floor. Inner and outer surfaces of the fluidic lines and an inner surface of the process vessel may include one or more materials having a coefficient of friction less than or equal to approximately 0.1 relative to polished steel. The system further includes an assembly of one or more pumps, one or more valves, and control electronics collectively configured to pass reagents to the process vessel. Methods and storage mediums having program instructions configured to prepare fluid assays using such a system are also provided.
