Sample cartridge, valve assembly and processing methods for providing mechanical lysis, chemical lysis or both for a given fluid sample are provided herein. Such systems can include a sample processing cartridge having a valve assembly configured for transport of the processing of fluid sample within the sample cartridge. The valve assembly can include a valve body and cap that secure a filter therebetween and facilitate inflow of mechanical or chemical lysing agents as needed for a fluid sample. Assay workflows for performing both mechanical and chemical lysis of a fluid sample within the same workflow of a single universal sample cartridge are also provided.

An isotope analysis system includes: a first liquid channel, second liquid channels, third liquid channels, fourth liquid channels connected with a heating reactor, a diverter, and a selector valve. The diverter is configured to divert liquid from the first liquid channel to the third liquid channels. The selector valve comprises a first liquid outlet and a plurality of first liquid inlets. A third liquid channel and a fourth liquid channel are assigned to each of the plurality of second liquid channels; an end of the fourth liquid channel is connected to both an end of the second liquid channel and an end of the third liquid channel; and a first liquid inlet is assigned to each of the plurality of fourth liquid channels, and another end of the fourth liquid channel is connected to the first liquid inlet.

A PRP harvesting kit for harvesting platelet rich plasma that includes one or more collection tubes, each collection tube includes liquid biotin in an injectable form.

The present disclosure relates to a method for optimizing a measurement rate of a field device in a measurement system. The measurement system includes at least one second field device in which a measurement variable of the field device is correlated with the measurement variable of the second field device. The method determines a respective specific correlation pattern between the first measurement variable and the second measurement variable based on a learning phase. This makes it possible to check the measured values from the second field device for the correlation pattern during normal measurement operation and to change the measurement rate of the field device during the corresponding time window. This makes it possible to increase the service life and/or availability in the process installation.

A sensing cell culture vessel having one or more sensors on or in the vessel is configured to collect readings of various parameters or characteristics of a cell culture located within the sensing cell culture vessel and transmit the readings. The sensing cell culture vessels may be accompanied by a sensing plate having means for reading the one or more sensors and transmitting the one or more sensors to a server hosting electronic lab notebook for analyzing and storage of the readings. Sensing plates may further be equipped with cameras for imaging cell cultures located in the sensing cell culture vessels and transmitting the images to the server hosting the electronic lab notebook for analyzing and storage of the images. Embodiments of the invention allow for the continuous and automatic monitoring of cell cultures.
