A sample holder system for an automated sample analyzer, comprising at least a first well strip and a second well strip having substantially similar configurations, and each well strip comprises
a longitudinal axis (109), a plurality of wells (108), a first end (101), a second end (103), first and second side walls (121, 124),
a first engagement piece (200) disposed on said first side wall (121) and a second engagement piece (301) disposed on said first side wall (121),
another first engagement piece (300) disposed on the second side wall (124) and another second engagement piece (201) disposed on said second side wall (124);
wherein said first and second well strips are reversibly interlockable with each other such that in one orientation, said first engagement piece (200) of said first well strip cooperates with said another second engagement piece (201) of said second well strip and said second engagement piece (301) of said first well strip cooperates with said another first engagement piece (300) of said second well strip to reversibly attach said first well strip with said second well strip to form said sample holder system, and, in a second orientation, said first engagement piece (200) of said first well strip cooperates with said second engagement piece (301) of said second well strip and said second engagement piece (301) of said first well strip cooperates with said first engagement piece (200) of said second well strip to reversibly attach said first well strip with said second well strip to form said sample holder system;
wherein said first and second engagement pieces are reversibly interlockable by horizontally sliding said first well strip relative to said second well strip along said longitudinal axes (109) of said first and second well strips. |
