METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MONITORING THE PROPERTIES OF A BIOLOGICAL OR CHEMICAL SAMPLE

摘要

A method of monitoring the properties of a biological or chemical sample. The method includes carrying out a plurality of different tests on the sample to generate corresponding test data; optionally carrying out a preliminary processing of the test data to generate partially processed data; storing the test data and/or partially processed data; causing a processing system to analyze a user-defined selection of the test data or partially processed data to generate result data relating to one or more properties of the sample; and subsequent to the previous step, receiving a second user defined selection of the test data or partially processed data, different from the first selection, and causing the processing system to analyze the second user-defined selection of the test data or partially processed data to generate second result data relating to one or more properties of the sample different from the properties corresponding to the first user-defined selection.
