Fluid filter for an automated analyzer.

摘要

A fluid filter for a clinical analyzer comprises an elongate filter body mounted in a support (20). The filter body includes a multiplicity of longitudinal through-passages generally parallel to the axis, through which the fluid flows. When filtering blood and like materials, the passages have a length exceeding the average length of fibrous material in the blood. The filter is used in-line, eg. between conduits (16,56). <IMAGE>
