The recent development of minature fast analyzer systems based on the GeMSAEC principle, coupled with the possibility of direct introduction of unprocessed liquid samples, has been further extended to include a very small analytical system that is inexpensive, battery-operated, and portable. The basic analyzer is included in and on a cabinet, about 10 x 10 x 10 cm, and a coupled data-processor records analytical data in absorbance units and in arbitrary fluorescence units. The system is compatible with up to seven simultaneous colorimetric or fluorometric assays on physiologic fluids. The dynamic mode of sample loading is used, and the system is compatible with the introduction of unprocessed whole blood. End-point or rate analysis is possible, and the coefficient of variation obtained in multichemistry tests on a single serum sample introduced dynamically is comparable to that obtained with larger Centrifugal Fast Analyzer systems.
