A wash station assembly and method for washing selected samples in a sample containing assembly. The wash station assembly includes a wash station having a frame and a fluid dispensing assembly connected to the frame. The fluid dispensing assembly has a selector valve that is connectable to a plurality of fluid lines and is adjustable to allow only one of the fluids to pass through the selector valve at a time. An array of syringes is coupled to the selector valve and positioned to receive the fluid passing through the selector valve. Each syringe includes a check valve that prevents backflow of fluid or air into the syringe through the pipetting needles. A distribution manifold is connected to the selector valve and receives the fluid passing through the selector valve. The manifold has a plurality of distribution channels coupled to the syringes, to direct the fluid into the syringes. Each distribution channel has a manifold valve therein that prevents backflow of fluid into the manifold from the syringes. An array of pipetting needles is connected to the syringes and is positioned to direct the fluid into the sample containing assembly for washing the samples. The pipetting needles have a radially directed opening in the distal end to direct the fluid radially away from the needle during the dispensing process. A waste management system is connected to the wash station to automatically separate halogenated waste fluids from non-halogenated waste fluids.

The present invention makes use of a single detector to monitor several process functions, e.g. reaction efficiency, reagent flow rates, the presence of empty reagent reservoirs, the absence of a chemical reactor column in the system, blockage of flow system, etc., at a single location in the flow system. In accordance with the detection scheme of the present invention, only one detector is required to accomplish the same, if not more, functions as many detectors in the prior art instruments. In the described embodiment, an optical detector is positioned downstream of a chemical reaction chamber. This detector monitors the effluent from the reaction chamber to monitor the reaction efficiency. It also monitors the system functions upstream of the reaction chamber. System flow rate is monitored by detecting the presence of a gas bubble which has been introduced into the system at a known instance. Depletion of reagents in the reservoirs can be detected by monitoring the absence of the reagents at the detector at times when the reagents are expected. The flow system may be periodically diagnosed to check for flow blockage or missing flow component, by monitoring the flow past the detector which corresponds to a predetermined succession of reagents introduced into the system. Any deviation from a predictable succession of changes in the flow monitored by the detector indicates possible blockage of the flow delivery system or missing flow components.

The present invention is directed to the implementation of a multi-port rotary valve in an automated chemistry processing instrument which reduces chemical reagent cross contamination and simplifies system design and control. One or more multi-port rotary valves are used in conjunction with isolation valves which are each dedicated for an associated reagent in the system. According to one embodiment of the present invention, the instrument utilizes a multi-port valve which defines several fluid branches each associated with a reagent. The valve has a common inlet and common outlet which are selectively brought into fluid communication with the branches in a controlled sequence. At each branch, there is a two-way three-port isolation valve which controls introduction of an associated reagent into the branch. When a branch is selected by the rotary valve, the reagent introduced into the branch is delivered out of the common outlet by the flow from the common inlet. According to another embodiment of the present invention, the reagents are introduced through isolation valves between two multi-port rotary valves.
摘要:
A broad range of organic synthesis reactions can be conducted by means of a process using two polymeric supports, each carrying different reactive species. A liquid medium containing a specifically selected intermediate reactant, in a solvent, is circulated between the supports in order to remove the reactive species from the first support by reaction with the intermediate, and permit the reactive species thus removed to react with the reactive species of the second support, at the same time regenerating the original intermediate reactant. This circulation continues until the second support is suitably loaded with the reaction product, at which time the circulation is stopped and the reaction products separated and recovered. The process may be carried out in an automated apparatus in which sensors are placed at the entrance and exit of the column carrying the second polymeric support. The sensors are capable of sensing the relative presence of the intermediate reactant. When the same content of intermediate reactant is sensed at both the entrance and exit of the second column, the circulation will be automatically stopped as this will indicate complete loading of the second column.
