<p>A disposable container in which samples can be routinely prepared for analysis wherein the container (10) has a generally cylindrical magazine (13) containing a plurality of open top, sample preparation containers (A-F), each of which is provided with an inlet/outlet port (30) at the bottom thereof, and a distributor valve (20) beneath the magazine (13). Channels (36) are provided in the top of the valve (20), extending between openings (38) in the top of the valve (20), so that each channel (36) provides fluid flow communication between the ports (30) of the chambers (A-F) located above the openings (38) in the channel (36). The valve (20) and magazine (13) can be rotated relative to one another about the central axis of the magazine (13), so that the openings (38) in the channels (36) can be located beneath the ports (30) of different combinations of chambers (A-F) to provide fluid flow communication between different chambers (A-F).</p> |
