AUTOMATIC SLIDE LOADING DEVICE FOR MICRO ARRAY SCANNER AND ITS METHODS OF USE

摘要

An automatic slide loading device for microarray scanner comprises slide holders (1), a carrier device (2) and a positioning chamber (3), wherein the slide holder (1) can hold microarray slides (6) and the slide holder (1) is placed out of the scanning platform of the microarray scanner when the microarray scanner is in off work state, wherein the carrier device (2) is connected to the positioning chamber (3) and the carrier device (2) can load the slide holder (1) into the positioning chamber (3), wherein the positioning chamber (3) is placed above the scanning platform of the microarray scanner and is used to precisely locate the working surface of the microarray slides (6) in the slide holder (1).
