- the measurement condition including the information (measurement target item number and cartridge type container number) corresponding to the measurement target item name selected by key input is R.
- Step S 4 If it is in the general reagent measurement condition storage unit 3b of AM 3 (YE S in step S466), CPU 1 reads out the measurement target item name and measurement operation procedure of the relevant measurement condition from RAM 3 and executes step S 46 Enter the parameters into the measurement program already read in 1 and start the measurement operation (Step S 4
- the CPU 1 displays on the LCD display 5 an indication that the measurement operation has started.
- the CPU 1 Upon starting the measurement operation, the CPU 1 performs a predetermined measurement operation by controlling the sampling pump unit 9 and the nozzle drive unit 10 in accordance with the measurement operation procedure read from the RAM 3 (step S 46 9 ). When the measurement is completed, the measurement result is processed as needed (step S 46 9 ).
- the bar code reader mounted on the nozzle drive unit 10 causes the bar code reader of the cartridge type container to measure the bar code of the cartridge type container. of Determine the presence or absence.
- the measurement conditions for the special cartridge type container are read out from the RAM 3 to perform the measurement, whereas when the barcode is not read, the measurement conditions for the general-purpose cartridge type container are read. Perform the measurement.
- a measurement device according to the present invention was prototyped, and a rheumatoid factor (RF) immune turbidimetric measurement was performed using an empty cartridge-type container obtained by manually dispensing a general-purpose reagent. Then, the measurement results were compared with the equivalent measurement results using a conventional automatic analyzer (Nihon Denshi Co., Ltd .: Biochemical Automatic Analyzer JCA-BM8 (trade name)).
- the measuring device used in the present embodiment uses a conventional measuring device having the same hardware configuration as the configuration shown in FIG. 4 in the above-described embodiment of the invention, and the CPU of FIG. This was realized by loading a program that executes the processing shown in Fig. 9. The measurement was performed as follows.
- J CA—Set for BM8 The mixing ratio is 140 microliters of buffer solution.
- the titre (iL), latex was 47 L, and the sample (plasma) was 4.
- the sample dilution ratio was set to 5 times, and the amount of diluted sample used was set to 20 ii L.
- the measurement wavelength of JCA-BM8 is 658 nm. Other detailed settings were specified by the manufacturer.
- the parameters for this measurement device were prepared in correspondence with the parameters of JCA-BM8.
- the mixing ratio of the buffer, latex, and sample was adjusted to 140: 47: 4, similarly to JCA-BM8.
- the mixing ratio was 140 / L for the buffer solution, 47 / XL for the latex, and 4 L for the sample.
- the diluted sample volume used will be 80 L. If the whole blood measurement is not performed, it is also possible to dispense 20 L of a 5-fold diluted sample as in (1). In this example, the dispensed volume of each reagent was reset to the above 60%, and the buffer was changed to 8%.
- the measurement wavelength of this measuring device is 660 nm, while the measurement wavelength of JCA-BM8 is 658 nm, but the measurement wavelength of the same reagent is 550 to 660 nm. Since they are set in the range, the difference between these measurement wavelengths does not affect the measurement results.
- physiological saline is dispensed into the well 23, which is used for the purpose of diluting 20 times in order to measure whole blood which has been previously lysed by freeze-thawing. If the whole blood to be used has not been lysed, dispense a solution with a hemolytic action (such as a saponin solution) here. If there is a sample diluent specified by the reagent supplier, it is desirable to dispense the sample diluent here and dilute the sample at the dilution rate specified by the manufacturer. Further, when the whole blood measurement is not performed and the dilution of the sample is not necessary, the dispensing of the reagent into the well 23 and the parameters related thereto are unnecessary.
- a hemolytic action such as a saponin solution
- the measurement operation procedure for the cartridge-type container into which the reagent has been dispensed is recorded on a magnetic card, and the magnetic card reader 9 reads this magnetic force as described above.
- the measuring operation procedure of the present measuring apparatus for the cartridge type container was registered.
- the sequence of the measurement operation procedure is as shown in (a) to (m) below.
- (a) Dispense a total of 190 wL of physiological saline into the well 21 by transferring 95 L of physiological saline twice from the well 23 to the well 21.
- the RF standard solution of (2) was dispensed into the sample tank 28 of a cartridge-type container into which reagents were dispensed as shown in (5) above, and The measurement was carried out to determine the change in absorbance (Dell Even Ab s).
- the results are shown in Table 2 and FIG. In this example, the measurement was performed twice each, and the calibration curve of this measurement device was created based on the average value.However, depending on the time required for measurement, the amount of reagents, or the required measurement accuracy, etc. The number of times can be changed.
- the calibration curve was created by inputting the delta Abs obtained in (7) above to this measurement device. This input was made with a magnetic card. When the calibration curve is not used, the measurement result by Dell Abs is obtained.
- the measurement of a whole blood sample was performed by the present measuring apparatus.
- Example 1 As in Example 1, a general-purpose reagent was dispensed into an empty cartridge-type container, plasma and whole blood were measured, and the measured RF concentration of the obtained whole blood was measured. The hematocrit value (%) was determined from the Hb concentration obtained at the same time, and converted into hematocrit (RF measurement value of whole blood / (1-hematocrit value (%) Z100)). This hematocrit conversion is performed as “arithmetic processing” shown in step S456 of FIG. 8 or step S470 of FIG. 9 in the embodiment of the invention described above.
- a general-purpose cartridge-type container in which a commercially available reagent is dispensed into a cartridge-type container can be used. It can provide a highly versatile measuring device while maintaining the advantages of a dedicated machine, such as its operation can be almost completely automated.
