Appl. No.:

11/222618

Inventors:

Linda Lin - Fremont CA, US
Gregory Houtz - San Jose CA, US

International Classification:

G01N 30/02

US Classification:

422070000

Abstract:

A chemical sample loading and processing system for high throughput processing, having a processor coupled to a memory, and the memory has located therein at least one data file having a plurality of sets of information, and a software program. The software program includes instructions for the processor to correlate each of the plurality of sets of information in the data file or files with at least one sample, and control the automatic and sequential processing of each of a plurality of samples. The system also includes a stacker, where the stacker holds each of the plurality of samples to be processed and a chemical analyzer coupled to the processor and to the stacker, where the chemical analyzer processes each of the plurality of samples. The data file or files may be at least one of generated in advance of loading of the plurality of samples into the stacker and transferred to the memory and generated in real time as the samples are loaded into the stacker.

Abstract:

In a system and method for viewing and screening data from multiple analysis instruments in a single display, a display device coupled to a processor, displays a universal browser window. The browser window includes a first portion and a second portion. A memory also coupled to the processor, has stored therein a software program including instructions for execution by the processor. The software program includes instructions for saving a first set of data relating to a first batch of sample(s) from a first analysis instrument in a first format, saving a second set of data relating to the first sample from a second analysis instrument in the first format, combining the first set of data and the second set of data into a first file, storing the first file in the memory, displaying the first set of data in the first portion of the universal browser window, and displaying the second set of data in the second portion of the universal browser window in conjunction with the display of the first set of data in the first portion of the browser window.
