Patent ID: 8456626

Claim:
A luminometer comprising, a housing having an interior which is accessible through a closure door, a photon measuring detection system provided in the housing positioned at a predetermined measuring position, a track system provided on a support within the housing, the track system including first portions extending in a first direction and at least one second connecting portion extending in at least one second direction, a carrier for carrying a plurality of wells in a plurality of rows, the carrier being positionable in association with the track system for movement of the carrier along the tracks thereof, and a drive system for moving the carrier in the first direction, whereby the track system is designed to cause movement of the carrier in a generally orthogonal direction relative to the first direction by means of the at least one second connecting portion, and the carrier is movable in the generally orthogonal direction relative to the drive system, whereby each of the plurality of wells are positioned at the measuring position for measurement of photons therefrom.
