Method and apparatus for the automatic, sequential typing of blood samples are provided and comprise the supply from blood sample supply means of said blood samples in the form of a stream of successive blood sample plasmas and a concomitant stream of successive blood sample cells, the supply from reagent dispensing means of a successive stream of different antisera, as spaced by a separating fluid, and a successive stream of different reagent cells, as spaced by a separating fluid, the division of said blood sample cells stream into quotients by the introduction of a separating fluid at spaced points therein, the merger of a different one of said antisera with each of the blood sample cells quotients from each of said blood samples, the merger of said different reagent cells with the blood sample plasma from each of said blood samples, the incubation of said antisera-blood sample cells stream and of said reagent cells-blood sample plasma stream to promote reaction therebetween, and the provision of readily readable and reproducible results of the blood-typing procedure.
