Patent ID: 11331662

Abstract:
An assay preparation device is an apparatus that is used to contain a variety of reagents and samples, to combine these fluids in a desirable order, to agitate the fluids through rotation of adsorbent petals, to contain the resulting waste products, and to allow for wavelength analysis of the results. The apparatus includes a reaction chamber, an intake port, a sample-retaining spinner, a first reading slit, a plurality of fluid-retaining receptacles, a plurality of input valves, and a waste valve. The plurality of input valves is connected to the plurality of fluid-retaining receptacles, allowing the user to control fluid flow into the reaction chamber. The sample-retaining spinner collects the fluids in the reaction chamber. Upon reaction completion, the waste valve is opened to allow for removal of fluids from the reaction chamber. The first reading slit provides a window for wavelength examination tools to examine and analyze the reaction results.
