Abstract:
A container assembly for use with a high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) instrument is disclosed, in which the container assembly, when coupled to a source of pressurized gas, provides fluid medium to the HPLC instrument at positive pressure. The container assembly has an external exterior container shell, an internal fluid container for holding fluid medium, an interstitial volume between the external exterior container shell and the internal fluid container, a port for fluidly connecting the volume to a pressurized gas source, and a port for fluidly connecting the internal fluid container to the HPLC instrument. As a pressurized gas in the interstitial volume increases, fluid medium flows out of the port connected to the internal fluid bag and container assembly at a positive pressure. A system incorporating the container assembly, and method of use of the same, are also disclosed.

Claim (Index 9):
A bulk fluidics module for a high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) instrument, comprising:\n a gas pressurization system; a reagent consumable region, having a plurality of gas interface ports and a plurality of fluid interface ports; a pressurized gas channel, configured to connect and allow for passage of gas from the gas pressurization system to the plurality of gas interface ports; a consumable decompression region, configured to connect receive pressurized fluids through the plurality of fluid interface ports and to regulate pressure of received pressurized fluids; and a fluid distribution region, configured to receive fluids from the consumable decompression region and to direct received fluids out of the bulk fluidics module.
