Title:
SAMPLE POOLING DEVICE AND SAMPLE POOLING SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/131039
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A sample pooling system 1000 that comprises a sample pooling device 200 that pools samples, a first PCR device 300 that performs a PCR on mixed samples, and a second PCR device 400 that performs a PCR on individual samples. The sample pooling device 200 has: a single first rack 700a that accommodates a plurality of mixed sample containers in a row in the y direction; a plurality of second racks 700c that accommodate a plurality of individual sample containers in a row in the x direction; and a plurality of dispensation nozzles 240 that dispense a plurality of individual samples from the plurality of individual sample containers accommodated by a respective second rack 700c into a respective mixed sample container. The plurality of individual sample containers accommodated by one of the second racks 700c are aligned in the x direction with one of the plurality of mixed sample containers accommodated by the first rack 700a.
