4.3 MODULES DESCRIPTION
4.3.1 Sampler module

Sampler module is the most important mechanism of auto loader module.
It consists of three major mechanisms: loader module, mixing and transfer
module and an ejection module which together form a system capable to load,
mixing, aspirate, and unload racks in which tubes are held (five on one rack)
4.3.1.1 Loader module

4.3.1.2 Transfer and mixing module
The racks are loaded on the

Transfer guide rail by a loading screw
screw then displaced by another screw
(transfer screw). The rail which
maintains the rack can also rotate
for mixing the blood inside the
tubes.
The blood is mixed by complete
returning. Each sample is

rack is also identified by the
barcode reader.
The speed mixing is 25 reversals
Transfer motor & Barcode reader per minute with a minimum of
position sensor 20 reversals for a first mixing then
10 per minute.
The system allows the rerun of
the sample before the
displacement to the next sample

It is made of three parts:
- An illumination module which
contains the semi conductor light
source, a beam adjustment glass
smear, and lens.
- A flow cell made of injected
plastic in which the sample and
the passive sheath flow away.
- and the detection module
which contains lens, a beam

Light beam is created in order to

allow particles to be analyzed.in a
Metallic flow cell. They are transported by
nozzle in a the 80µm cross section sample
plastic flow flow, they have to pass the optical
cell interrogation zone where light-
particle interaction occurs.
In order to get the best possible
SNR (Signal Noise Ratio) for the
optical measurement, dimensions
of the optical interrogation zone
have to be close to the sample
flow diameter .
Since optical interrogation zone
is a rectangular area of 110µm 
30µm and sample flow has a
diameter of 80µm, their relative
positioning has a tolerance of
15µm.
Nozzle aperture diameter is
80µm.
Sample flow has perfect cylindrical
shape and is maintained along at
least 500µm from injection point.
For this purpose passive sheath
technique is used
splitting a
beam on Light is then collected by two
the photo detectors, by splitting a
Fresnel beam on the Fresnel lens and
lens l additionally direct it through a

Standard CMS photodiodes are
used as detectors
Their small diameter Ø 0.8mm
ensures low dark current.

4.4 MEASUREMENT TECHNOLOGY
4.4.1 Impedance measurement
WBC, RBC, PLT Counting

The counting of the cellular elements in a blood sample is done with
the impedancemetry technique.
This technique is based on the modification of the impedance of a
calibrated aperture soaking in an electrolyte and going through a
constant course delivered by two electrodes located on both sides of
the aperture.
A vacuum applied on a side of the aperture allows the cells passage.
They oppose their physical volume to the course passage. A voltage
impulse is registered at the electrodes terminal. The height of this
impulse is proportional to the cell volume.

4.4.2 Optical measurement
The innovative optical detection system is covered by two pending patents. This
technology (called OCHF for Optical Cytometer Hydrofocus Free) is based on an
unique and innovative concept of an active sample flow and a passive sheath.
The sample flow is introduced in the flow cell under pressure and the sheath is
only dedicated to maintain it.
This principle enables to introduce a large quantity of samples and to use a
great dilution rate (which allows doing the Hemoglobin measurement with the
same dilution).
The main advantages are:
- High level of reliability of the optical adjustment.
- Only two measurement axes for five parameters.
- High resolution matrix.
- Only one passive sheath with low reagent consumption.
- No hydro focusing system.
- Low level of contamination between two measurements.
- Very low cost flow cell (injected plastic).
