Abstract: A time period that is required for dealing with the need to access another place in advance of a device which is generating an alarm is reduced. Information of a task being presently executed by a laboratory technician present in a clinical laboratory is acquired from a responsible person schedule management table. Information based on a distance between the present position of the laboratory technician present in the clinical laboratory and a positional information reference point that indicates the position first accessed by the laboratory technician to deal with the alarm and that is specified from an alarm information management table and an alarm handling access position management table is also acquired. Based on the acquired information, ordering for issuing a notification of the alarm of which generation has been detected is performed for the laboratory technician present in the clinical inspection room.

Abstract: Provided is an automatic analyzer in which a lid of a reagent vessel does not hinder the dispensing of the reagent.
An automatic analyzer for analyzing a specimen includes a reagent dispensing unit for dispensing a reagent from a reagent bottle in which a plurality of reagent vessels storing reagents used for the analysis of the specimen are arranged in one direction, and a reagent rack in which reagent bottles are stored, in which the reagent rack includes a lid opening unit for opening a lid corresponding to an upward opening of the reagent vessel along an arrangement direction of the reagent vessels, and a lid fixing unit for fixing the lid to the outside of a path in which the reagent dispensing unit is inserted into the opening.

Abstract: An inspection result of a specimen inspection automation system can be reported within a prescribed time, even if a large number of urgent specimens have been input. An instruction reception unit receives turn around time (TAT) information and a discharge instruction. The necessity of discharging a specimen for which the instruction was issued with the discharge instruction is determined and a discharge instruction unit creates a discharge destination and a conveyance route to the discharge destination for the specimen. A discharge mechanism discharges the specimen for which the instruction was issued. Even for a specimen which is caused to wait for processing due to the occurrence of specimen congestion and for which there is a risk of an inspection result reporting delay, an inspection result can be reported within a prescribed time by switching from automatic processing by the system to manual processing by an operator.

Abstract: A chromatograph allows easy replacement of a separation column while preventing an operator from contacting with a configuration related to the separation column. A column cartridge accommodates the separation column and is detachably provided in a predetermined column installation position. An upstream pipe is detachably provided on the column cartridge in a state of being installed at the column installation position, and supplies a mobile phase to the separation column of the column cartridge. A downstream pipe is detachably provided on the column cartridge in a state of being installed at the column installation position, and delivers the mobile phase that has passed through the separation column of the column cartridge. A cover integrally covers the column installation position, the upstream pipe, and the downstream pipe and has an insertion hole that allows the column cartridge to be installed from the outer side of the cover.

Abstract: A technique for replacing a separation column includes: a driving device supporting a first pipe along a first direction; a fixing member that fixes a second pipe to be opposed to the first pipe along the first direction; a column case between the first pipe and the second pipe, having a first and second holes communicating with the first and second pipes, respectively; and an interlocking mechanism that moves the column case in the first direction in conjunction with movement of the first pipe. The column case allows a column cartridge retaining a separation column to be connected and disconnected. The driving device moves the first pipe and the interlocking mechanism such that two states are reversibly taken; a closed state in which the separation column is between the first and second pipes and an open state in which the first and second pipes are positioned outside the column case.
