Method and structure for determination of item of interest in a sample

摘要

The present invention relates to a structure for performing a process for determining an item of interest in a sample, the structure comprising: a process step performance lane (62) accepting a container (15) for the sample where at least a process step for determining the item of interest is performed on the sample in the container (15); and a process step avoidance lane (64) accepting the container (15) where the at least one process step for determining the item of interest is avoided.

Also disclosed there is a method of performing a process for determining an item of interest in a sample, the method comprising the steps of: positioning a container (15) for the sample in a process step performance lane (62) where at least a process step for determining the item of interest is performed on the sample in the container (15); and positioning the container (15) in a process step avoidance lane (64) where the at least one process step for determining the item of interest is avoided.
