Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sample preparation device by means of which e.g. Samples to be analyzed enzymatically or immunochemically, in particular stool samples, for the analysis can be prepared, as well as a test device set based thereon.
  • Stool samples that undergo an enzymatic or immunochemical analysis (enzyme immunoassay, rapid test, laterai flow system) or in particular in the solid-phase technique of the ELISA (enzyme linked immunosorbent assay) or a microbiological analysis (e.g. determination of the number of bacteria or the number of parasite eggs) to be supplied must be prepared for the analysis, for example determined in terms of quantity or weight in a reagent or a solvent, as described for example in WO92 / 02630 for elastase 1 / pancreas tests or in DE 1 99 45 947 A1 for the detection of Tumor M2 pyruvate kinase is described.
  • JP 10 300 642 A and JP 10 300 643 A disclose stool sample tubes with a sleeve-shaped beaker for holding a solvent and with a sample holding rod that can be inserted into the beaker.
  • the sample holding rod At its end to be inserted into the beaker, the sample holding rod has a sample well that receives the stool sample and is replaced by a provided with an annular lip, inserted in the cup stopper sleeve inserted into the cup.
  • the ring lip wipes off the protruding stool above the scoop and in this way calibrates the stool volume (or stool mass) introduced into the solvent.
  • sample preparation devices which are already assembled as disposable items with the reagent and / or the solvent, are charged with the sample mass to be analyzed, for example chair, by filling the scoop recess of the sampling rod and inserting it into the reagent or solvent through the insertion opening of the vessel.
  • the wiping lip running along the circumferential surface of the sampling rod calibrates the content of the scoop. Since the wells are comparatively small, they contain essentially only mucus in stool samples and accordingly it can be assumed with sufficient accuracy that the stool sample is not only determined by volume but also by weight.
  • the invention is based on a sample preparation device with a closable vessel for holding a liquid reagent and / or liquid solvent and a sampling rod which has at least one scoop recess in the area of one of its ends on its circumferential surface and with this end through a stripping shoulder The opening of the vessel can be inserted into the vessel.
  • the vessel has an access opening closed by a removable closure part and that the sampling rod relative to the part of the vessel forming the insertion opening on the one hand and the closure part relative to the part of the vessel forming the access opening on the other hand by a sealing arrangement is sealed, to which, in particular to the side of the reagent or solvent, a throttle section encloses the sampling rod or the closure part.
  • the seal is preferably a press fit seal, which seals the sampling rod against the insertion opening or the closure part against the access opening by means of a radial press fit.
  • the throttling section located on the inside of the vessel reduces the suction effect that a negative pressure possibly present on the outside of the vessel exerts on the interior of the vessel and also reduces the compressive force with which any excess pressure in the interior of the vessel acts on the seal.
  • the throttling section can be a throttling gap which can be very narrow in practice, for example the dimensions of an under-fit, which in itself allows the components to be sealed against one another to be moved slightly, but the sealing effect of which is inherent would be inadequate in practice.
  • the vessel is designed, in a manner known per se, as an elongated sleeve which receives the sampling rod in the longitudinal direction and is closed at one of its longitudinal ends, the other longitudinal end of which forms the access opening which is closed by the removable closure part, the closure part being the one with the stripping shoulder provided insertion opening for the sampling rod.
  • the closure part is designed as a sleeve-shaped or cup-shaped sample collecting part, which, facing the sleeve, forms the stripping shoulder. Any excess wiped off at the wiping shoulder can collect in the sample collecting part in this way and does not contaminate the exterior of the device.
  • the sleeve, the sample collection part and also the section of the sampling rod that can be inserted into the sleeve have a cylindrical contour, which facilitates the sealing.
  • the closure part engages at least over part of its axial length in the sleeve, with at least two annular bead seals, which form a radial interference fit and are provided between the sleeve and the closure part, which form the throttle section in this engagement area at an axial distance from one another. Since the throttle section is limited axially on both sides by press fit seals, the sealing effect is particularly high.
  • the annular bead seals are expediently integrally formed on one of the two parts - the inner jacket of the sleeve and the outer jacket of the closure part, which facilitates the manufacture and assembly of the sample preparation device.
  • the insertion of the closure part into the sleeve is facilitated if the diameter of the other of the two parts is stepped between the bead seals and decreases in the direction of insertion of the closure part. In this way, the closure part can be inserted into the sleeve with relatively little force before being in an end section of the insertion path the radial force of the bead seals is built up.
  • the sampling rod has a ring-shaped, thickened second portion which is enlarged in diameter with respect to its first portion which can be inserted into the vessel through the insertion opening and which is sealed in the insertion opening in a radial press fit when the sampling rod is inserted.

  • the inner jacket 93 is approximately at the axial spacing of the ring beads 41 , 91 are provided with inclined steps 95, 97, which reduce the inside diameter of the inner casing 93 step-wise, so that the inner casing 93 exerts radial constraining forces on the annular beads 41, 91 when the inclined steps 95, 97 assigned to the annular beads 41, 91 are overcome.
  • the outer diameters of the annular beads 41, 91 also decrease in the direction of insertion.

While the section 105 for generating the radial press-fit forces can optionally have a flat annular bead , The inner diameter of section 107 is approximately equal to the outer diameter of section 99. The diameters of the sections 99, 107 are preferably the same, but with a slight tolerance of the sub-tolerance ensuring the sampling rod 1 3c in the passage opening 22c. In this way, a throttle gap is created between the opposing surfaces of the sections 99, 107, which relieves the seal between the sections 101 and 105. This seal also seals securely against external negative pressure without it being difficult to insert the sampling rod 1 3c due to excessive radial pressing forces.
  • the sampling rod 13c can tightly close the insertion opening 22c both before and after scooping a sample. However, if the sampling rod 13c is also in the sleeve 3c before the sample is taken, it carries liquid with it when it is pulled out, which can lead to contamination of the surroundings during the sampling. In a preferred embodiment it is provided that the sampling rod 1 3c is inserted into the liquid chamber of the sleeve 3c for the first time after the sampling. Until then, the push-through opening 22c is indicated by an integral part of the sample collecting sleeve 19c indicated at 109. molded membrane 1 09 tightly sealed.
  • the membrane 109 has a thickness of for example one or two hundredths of a millimeter and is pierced by the tip of the sampling rod 13c when the sampling rod 13c loaded with the sample is inserted into the liquid chamber. In the exemplary embodiment shown, the membrane 109 is arranged flush with the piston disk 43.
  • a membrane of the type described can also be provided in the variants of the sample preparation device explained above.
  • a component of the commercial packaging unit is preferably also at least one with a layer of floatable, water-soluble material to facilitate the removal of stool.
  • the sheet can be made from a film of the buoyant, water-soluble material, e.g. consist of a film made of PEG (polyethylene glycol), PVP (polyvinylpyrolydone) or a sugar polymer. It is conveniently opaque to facilitate its handling.
  • the sheet advantageously consists of a composite of the water-soluble, floatable material and a layer of rotten, opaque paper (cellulose) in order to delay the dissolution in the water.
  • the dilution device consisting of the pre-assembled cup 79 containing the dilution liquid and sealed by the cover 83, as well as the drip cap 85 as part of the commercial packaging unit. Except for the analysis devices, all devices required for the preparation of prepared test liquids are therefore part of the trading unit. It goes without saying that the analysis devices can also be part of the trading unit. In particular, the lateral flow system can be part of the packaging unit.
