CONTINUOUS FLOWING METHOD, CONTINUOUS FLOWING DEVICE AND SINGLE FLOW-PATH CONTINUOUS FLOW ANALYZER

摘要

A continuous flow system in which successive liquid segments (R1 + S; R2) are established containing different related components of a fluid package, such as an analysis mixture separated by at least one immiscible segment (A1), passed along a first section (102) of a conduit (70), combined in a second section (104) of the conduit and mixed while passing along a third section (106) of the conduit, so as to provide a completely mixed segment (R1 + S + R2). This system permits the delayed on-line mixing of different components of an analysis mixture, such as samples with reagents or diluents, as well as mixing and interaction of such components in a single conduit.
