Chapter 2 Function and Measuring Principle

The function and measuring principle is composed of mechanism movement principle and analyzing assay.
2.1 Mechanism movement principle
CS-400 Auto-Chemistry Analyzer consists primarily of the sample disk, sampling mechanism, reagent
disk, reagent pipeting mechanism, reaction disk, reaction bath, rinsing mechanism and photometer.
Operation of each mechanism is explained according to figure 2-1:
After starting, instrument carries out resetting first, rotates the R1 reagent disk and R2 reagent disk to
Position 1, then rotate them for 360 degrees, the R1 reagent probe, R2 reagent probe, sample probe, R1
stirring rod, R2 stirring rod are all stopped at the upper side of their rinsing bathes respectively.
Upon pressing the start key, the rinse mechanism starts rinsing from reaction cuvette No1. The reaction
disk rotates by 22 patches and stops temporarily, and then rotates by 37 patches and stops, sequently, 2 more
patches and then stops. This sequence is carried out again to cover one full turn plus 2 patches (18 seconds).
Cell blank is measured when the reaction cuvette passes through the photometric unit during rotation of the
reaction disk. The measured value of cell blank becomes the reference value for the subsequent absorbance
measurement. The liquid in the reaction cuvette is assimilated through the nozzle of rinse mechanism.
After rinsing the reaction cuvette for 3 minutes (the reaction disk rotates 10 circles), the sampling
mechanism begins to work when reaction disk rotates the 11th turns, and the sample probe moves above of the
sample cup and decends into the cup. Since the sample probe comprises a liquid level sensor, the probe stops
descending when its tip enters the sample. A set volume of sample is assimilated with the sample pipettor.
Next, the sample probe moves to the top of No.1 reaction cup and descends until its tip reaches the bottom of
the cuvette, where the sample is discharged. The sample probe further moves to the inside of probe rinsing
bath, where its inner and outer walls are washed with purified water.
On the other hand, the reagent pipetting mechanism assimilates reagent 1 (with R1 probe), while the
reaction disk rotates by 22 patches, stops temporarily and the rotates by 37 patches after the fore mentioned
sampling mechanism has discharged the sample into the reaction cuvette. When the reaction disk stops
temporarily after the above rotation, reagent 1 is discharged into the reaction cuvette. And when the reaction
disk stops temporarily after rotating by 2 patches, the R1 stirring mechanism mixes the sample and reagent.
The reagent pipetting mechanism rotates to the top of reagent bottle in the specified channel and descends
while assimilates and discharges reagent. A set volume of reagent is assimilated, then the reagent probe moves
to the top of reaction cuvette and discharges the reagent, followed by returning to the rinsing bath and
washing of its inner and outer walls. Add reagent R1 and start photometry. Measurement is made when each
reaction cuvette passes through the optical path during rotation of the reaction disk. The reaction disk
rotates15 turns plus 22 patches to the reagent 2 pipetting position, where reagent 2 is added with R2 probe.
Reagent 2 is stirred with the R2 stirring mechanism after the reaction disk rotates by 16 turn plus 2 patches
and stops temporarily, and then rotates 22 patches and stops temporarily.
After 26 turns plus 37 patches , reaction disk comes to the reagent 3 sampling position, and reagent
probe 2 assimilates reagent 3. R2 stirring rod begins to work after 2 more patches of reaction cuvette.
After 41 turns plus 37 patches , reaction disk comes to the reagent 4 sampling position, and reagent probe
1 assimilates reagent 4. R1 stirring rod begins to work after 2 more patches of reaction cuvette
After the lapse of about 15 minutes (60 circles), the first cup measurement is over, and the reaction
solution in No. 1 reaction cup is assimilated with the nozzle of cuvette rinsing mechanism, which will
discharge cleaning liquid and water into the reaction cup to rinse the cup. The instrument stops and goes to
22
standby status when the last reaction cuvette has been washed, and goes to the the cell blank status. The
reagent probe and sample probe will be rinsed respectively by their own detergents added by themselves after
every test.

Table 2-1 Analytical flow
2.1.3 Photometric Features
This instrument adopts the whole reaction monitoring system, which intermittently measures the absorbance of
reaction solution for a reaction time of 15 minutes.
The reaction disk rotates 1 turn plus 2 pitches in about 18 seconds and during this time the absorbance is
measured for all of 120 reaction cuvettes which go across the optical axis of the photometer. For each reaction
cuvette, measurement is made10 times in a reaction time of about 3 minutes. 13 times measurement is made
during 4 minutes (13 photo metric point.). 16 times measurement is made during 5 minutes (16 photo metric
point33 times measurement is made during 10 minutes (33 photo metric point.) .49 times measurement is made
during 15 minutes (49 photo metric point.)
CS-400 multi-wavelength photometer condenses the white light emitted from the light source lamp through the
lens, passes the condensed light through the reaction cuvette and separates the light with the concave diffraction
grating. The separated respective wavelength components are simultaneously received on the 12 fixed detectors
and amplified by 12 amplifiers, then logarithmically converted to obtain the absorbance or difference in
absorbance. In 2 wavelengths photometry, concentration is measured by the value of the difference of dominant
wavelength and complementary wavelength. This means that the photometer features a correcting effect for
lipemia, hemolysis and icterus of sample and has a compensating effect for fluctuation in source voltage, thus
realizing stable measurement.
2.2 Assay mode
The assay mode of Auto-Chemistry Analyzer is based on the Beer-Lambert law that the material selective
absorption light
The main principle is: When monochromatic light with specific wavelength passes through the cuvette with
sample, the monochromatic light absorbency and sample liquid concentration are varies directly as the distance
24
which is passed through sample liquid by light:
I
A = lg（1/T）= lg（ 0 ）= ε b c
It
A － Absorbency of the light when passing through liquid
T － Transmitted intensity and incident intensity ratio: transmittance It/I0；
I0 － Incident intensity
It － Transmitted intensity
ε － Molar absorption coefficient of solution（ml×mmol 1×cm 1）；

－－
c － Mol concentration of the solution（mmol/ml）；
b － Solution layer thickness（cm）；
Solution layer thickness (b): Optical path, which is fixed by instrument. Molar absorption coefficient (ε) is the
correlation coefficient of the wavelength, solution and solution temperature. Linear relationship is displayed
between solution thickness and absorbency when in stable temperature and single wavelength（ε value is given
on the reagent bottle by factory）
If the sample liquid adequate distribution, interaction between liquid and incidence monochromatic light only
happens during absorbing process. No fluorescence, disperse and photochemical appear. No interaction between
substances in the solution while absorbing process. The absorbency possess conducts nature, and this condition
conforms to the Beer-Lambert law

(7) Rate B Assay (mode 1)

Two tests are analyzed by the rate assay in a single channel. In the first half of reaction time, test A is measured,
and test B is measured in the second half. In the rate B assay, correction is possible with sample blank and for
an endogenous reaction. However, the method of correction of such reaction varies with measuring wavelength.
So this assay is categorized into modes 1 and 2 for easier explanation. Mode 1 is subdivided depending on
whether or not measuring wavelength is the same between test A and B. Figure 2-8 explains the rate B assay
(mode 1).

Two tests are analyzed by the rate assay in a single channel. In the first half of reaction time, test A is measured,

(6) Logit-log5P (Non-linear method 3)

There is no distinct difference between the working curves prepared by the non-linear method 2 and 3. However,
in some cases, the non-linear method 3 allows more accurate approximation because this method has one more
calculation because this method has one more calculation parameter than the non-linear method 2. Figure 2-15

(10) Isozyme Method

In a sample in which 2 different isozymes coexist, a reagent containing inhibitor may fail to completely
suppress the activity of either isozyme alone. In this case, isozyme activity is determined from total activity and
activity residual rate. Each working curve for total activity and isozyme activity are prepared by using 2
channels. If the activity of a specific isozyme of the coexistent two can be suppressed completely by using
monoclonal antibody, etc. this calibration method is unnecessary. As figure 2-19, 2-20 shows:

Figure 2-19 Isozyme Method Figure2-20 Isozyme Method
(a) calibration principle
Isozymes method uses 2 reagent position. The total activity Cf is supposed to be calculated first with a
certain reagent in the isozyme P position. Calculate the activity Cm or Cn of isozymes M or N with a
reagent which can suppress N or M substance.
The isozymes M inhibitor testing isozymes M.
Generally speaking isozymes N inhibitor cannot suppress the activity of isozymes N completely, and the
activity of isozymes M is suppressed in a degree at the meantime.
The isozymes Method uses 2 channels to test the total activity and standard cost of isozymes M,N, K
value is tested by total activity channel, both two channels are used.
52
M and N activity residual rate of M and N is calculated by inhibitor (ratio between absorbance of
standard 3 and standard 4 in two channel.).Calculate the total activity and isozymes M activity upon
above method. The activity of isozymes N is observed by calculation.
(b) Input of parameters:
Reagent and standard samples.
Reagent: Reagent for measurement of total activity, reagent for measurement of isozyme activity.
Standard sample: Standard sample F (containing both isozymes M and N), standard sample M
(containing isozyme M), standard sample N (containing isozyme N)
Reagent position: isozymes M and N are placed in different positions
(d) Entry on Chemistry parameters screen.
Make entry for each of the isozyme P and Q channels as shown in below Table:

Table 2-3
S1 to S4 are calibrator code numbers of calibrator 1 to calibrator 4 respectively. Enter the same calibrator
code number in both channels for each of calibrator 1,3,4. Set standard sample of isozyme M at position
Calibrator 3 and that of isozyme N at position Calibrator (4). It is unnecessary to enter the concentrations
of calibrator 3,4,2 for the isozyme Q channel. The channel number M of isozyme M is specified in the
isozyme P channel. But it need not be specified on the isozyme Q side. Unless M is entered, Isozyme
parameter error alarm occurs to disable analysis

2.2.3 Calibration points

According to the number of calibration points, calibration can be effected in different ways. Blank calibration:
Only reagent blank (standard 1 ) is calibrated. Span calibration: Only one standard solution other than the
reagent blank is calibrated. 2-point calibration: Reagent blank and a single standard solution are calibrated.
Full-point calibration: All standard solutions specified on the Chemistry Parameters screen are calibrated. These
are selectively usable so as to meet your analytical purpose. Each calibration is explained below.
(1) Blank Calibration

Only reagent blank (standard 1) is calibrated. The previously measured working curve is corrected for a change
in absorbance or absorbance change rate (through calculation of S1ABS). Table 2-4 lists the calculation method
for each calibration type. (a) S1ABS calculation

the span point entered on the Chemistry Parameters screen is measured and the previously measured working
curve is corrected for its slope. Table 2-5 lists the calculation method for each calibration type. This calibration
method need be specified for each test on the Calibration Test Selection screen.

2.3 Check of measure value
Various checks are performed to enhance the reliability of measured results. Below are check description
2.3.1 Calibration check

(1) Blank level check
In calibration, a warning –level alarm is issued if the measured absorbance of blank is not within the input
range of standard 1 absorbance. In this case, the result of measurement and alarm (S1ABS) are printed out. To
avoid check, enter-“-3.3～3.3”.
(2) Discrete check
A warning level alarm is issued if the difference of the two times measured absorbance value is larger than the
set value. In calibration, each Calibrator (include reagent blank: Calibrator 1) is tested twice.
57
To avoid the check, enter“3.3”.
Discrete check is performed by the below formula:
≤Absorbance Discrete Check（ABS）
(3) Sensitivity check
If the difference of standard absorbance (average between 2 times measure) from Max. concentration standard
absorbance (sensitivity) exceeds the permissible absorbance sensitivity value (Sensitivity Limit), a warning-
level alarm is issued. In this case, alarm mark is printed out together with the result of measurement.
The working curve of the alarmed analytical item will be renewed, and the K value won’t be renewed. To
avoid the check, enter-“0”.
Check the permissible sensitivity by the below formula:
ASTD（N） − ASTD（1）
lower lim it ≤ ≤ upper lim it
C STD（N） − C STD（1）
(4) K factor check
If the fluctuation in factor K value between previous calibration and current calibration is 20% ,a warning
level alarm is issued. The working curve and K factor will be renewed and testing can be carried out. Make
sure check the reason of alarm.
Check the K factor by the below formula:
K this − K last
× 100% ≤20%
(K this + K last ) / 2
(5) Drift rate check
In calibration, a warning –level alarm is issued if the difference between the calculated absorbance and tested
absorbance has exceeded the drift rate set value. The working curve and K factor will be renewed and testing
can be carried out. Make sure to check the reason of alarm. To avoid the check, enter“3.3”.
2.3.2 Absorbance of reaction limited check

As to the Rate assay, correct data won’t be obtained when concentration or activity exceeds the quantitative
span. Thus, set the upper limit value and lower limit value of the absorbance, print the alarm sign. Input the
calibration value on the screen. To avoid the check, enter-0 (decrease) or 3.3 (increase).
When 4 or more than 4 tested absorbance value is not accord with the set value of reaction limit absorbance,
alarm is issued as figure 2-21 shows:
58
ABS

Input photometry range
Figure 2-21
2.3.3 Linearity Abnormal Check

In the rate assay, relation between absorbance change and time should be Linearity. Thus, check on the
linearity is a necessity.
Select “Linearity check” in “Alarm Info.”, and input the limit check value in corresponding textbox as figure
2-22 shows:
Figure 2-22
If not selected, even if input value in textbox, linearity check is not carried out.
(1) When number of measurement points (N) more than 9 (N>9)

Linearity is checked by dividing the difference in absorbance change between the first and last 6
measurement points by the average absorbance change for all. If the value thus obtained is beyond the limit
linearity value, alarm is printed out together with the result of measurement as figure 2-23 shows:

(2) When number of measurement points (N) between 4 and 8 （4≤N≤8）

points by the average absorbance change for all. If the value thus obtained is beyond the limit linearity value,
alarm is issued as figure 2-24 shows:

2.3.4 Prozone check
In immunoreaction, working curve descends if antigen concentration is abnormally high beyond the suitable
range (prozone area). This is called prozone or zone phenomenon.
This instrument can check whether concentration is in the absorbance decreasing range (post zone). For prozone
check, the following 2 methods are available: antigen readdition method in 1-point assay with prozone check
and reaction rate method in 2-point assay. To Avoid check, input “-3.3 lower limit” in “checkup value” function
box in “analyze parameter” menu.
(1) Antigen supplement method:

Take 1-point essay for example, measure reagent 1, and take it’s value as reference value. Replace reagent with
serum diluents, which contain antigen, add 20ul. Compare the prozone limit value with absorbance difference

Chapter 8 Quality Control

The goal of quality control in lab is to guarantee test result reliability for each sample. The reliability include two
aspects, one is precision: the test result is in good repetition, daily test result changes little, the main purpose is to
eliminate or reduce the influence caused by random error; the other one is high accuracy: that the test result is
correct, close to the truth, and eliminate or reduce the influence caused by system error.
Random error: The difference between test result and the mean value of the same target tested many times in a
repetitious conditions is called random error.
System error: The difference between true value and the mean value of the same target tested many times in a
repetitious conditions is called system error.
Accuracy: The integration of system error and random error in the test result, indicate the consistent degree
between test result and true value.
Precision: The consistent degree among many test result of one target in a specified conditions, indicate the
degree of random error magnitude among the test results.
L-J ( levey Jennings) QC chart: QC chart is a kind of graph with quality control limit. QC limit is controllable

When the slope value of Na, K, Cl are all unstable or lower, please replace a new one.
(2) Replacement method
(a) Open left ISE cover of analyzing unit pull-in the handgrip, remove any electrode of Na, K, Cl after loosen
the electrode.
(b) Pull out of the electrode lead.
(c) Remove the fixing block of reference electrode, as figure 12-53 shows:
Fixed Reference
block electrode
Figure 12-53
Note1: Push down the wrench on the side of Na, K, Cl electrode side, fix the fixing block, the electrode could
be pull out easily by doing so.
Note2: In order to easily replacement, nip the reference electrode by forceps.
Note3: Owing to the conductivity of the dropping liquid, wipe out the liquid by gauze wetted with purified
water.
(d) Replace new electrode, connect the electrode lead.
210
(3) Reference electrode debugging
(a) Carry out ISE( REF) infusion twice in “maintenance” menu.
(b) Carry out 10 times ISE checkup in system maintenance ten minutes later. The result of the ISE checkup
will be showed in maintenance form. The value difference of the same electrode should within ±2Mv.
(c) Carry out ISE(full point)calibration, check if the slope value is within reference range.
12.5.5 SIP tube replacement

(a) Open the ISE cover of instrument analyze unit.
(b) Pull out of the tube and replace a new one. Make sure the tube is not slack while connecting. As figure
12-54 shows:
(c) Wipe out the dropping liquid with gauze wetted with purified water.
(d) Close the ISE cover.

12.5.6 ISE waste cleaning

The crystal substance attached on the ISE waste interface may cause inaccuracy of the test result. Cleaning it
once a week.
(a) Wash the crystal attached on the ISE waste interface into waste container by purified water, and then wash
the waste container by purified water. As figure 12-55 shows:
211

(b) Wipe out the liquid by gauze wetted with purified water, Thus there will be no conductive component in
the waste interface and waste container.
Note: Touching the waste tube may cause noise jamming while testing.
12.5.7 Waste pipeline cleaning

The sample probe, waste hose, electrode, ISE channel should be cleaned once a week.
(a) Place 1 ml CS-alkaline detergent at W1 position on sample disk, Place 1 ml CS-ISE detergent at W2
position on the sample disk.
(b) Place the CS-anti-bacterial phosphor-free detergent at 45 position on reagent disk 1 and reagent disk 2.
(c) Carry out “Rinsing reaction cuvette + ISE ” in maintenance menu.
Note: Owing to the pipeline of electrolyte is cleaned at the same time, the electrode state may change, thus
carry out calibration before ISE test.
