Device for loading samples into analytical instruments, useful particularly with DNA sequencers, contains array of sample channels that matches array of teeth in transfer comb

摘要

A device for loading scientific analytical instruments, e.g. sequencers, comprising a series of channels (120) having the same spacing (or a multiple of this spacing) as the teeth in a sample transfer comb (10), is new. A device for loading scientific analytical instruments, e.g. sequencers, comprising a series of channels (120) having the same spacing (or a multiple of this spacing) as the teeth in a sample transfer comb (10), is new. Each (120) holds a sample and is designed to accept a tooth (12) on (10) so that, by sweeping with (10), a sample is transferred from (120) to the corresponding (12).
