A management system including at least one processor, wherein the processor is configured to acquire an image obtained by imaging a sample container containing a sample, recognize relevant information related to reliability of a test result related to the sample based on the image, and derive reliability information indicating the reliability of the test result related to the sample based on the recognized relevant information.

Analysis control software is installed in an analysis control device. The analysis control software is the software for controlling an analysis device, and has a function of causing a display to display one or a plurality of operation images for receiving an operation for inspecting the analysis control software. In a validation device, operation commands for performing an operation on one or a plurality of operation images are sequentially generated by an inspection executor with the one or plurality of operation images displayed in the display, whereby an inspection is executed by the analysis control software.

Disclosed herein is a quality control method for predicting premature degradation in mechanical properties of a series of moulded plastics components, the moulded plastics components being formed from a batch mixture comprising a cross-linkable polymer and a peroxide cross-linking agent. The method comprises selecting a subset of the series of moulded plastics components and obtaining a material specimen from the subset; and then extracting and measuring a residual peroxide content of the specimen. According to the invention, the measured residual peroxide content is representative of a probability of the pre-measuring mature age-related degradation in the entire series of moulded plastics components, and may therefore be compared against a threshold residual peroxide content to determine whether the entire series of components is of acceptable quality.

A centering unit for diagnostics laboratory transporting compartment is presented. The centering unit for diagnostics laboratory transporting compartment comprises at least two arms with grippers for centering diagnostics laboratory transporting compartments of different diameters. For accurate and reliable centering of laboratory transporting compartments, the two arms are biased with a single elastic member. A laboratory system and a method for centering diagnostics laboratory transporting compartment and diagnostics laboratory transporting compartment holder are also disclosed.
