    • A fluid delivery system for aspirating liquid from a bottle (40) and conveying the liquid to a manifold fitting (55) of an analyzing instrument, said bottle having an interior space which contains a quantity of liquid and an opening to said interior space, said manifold fitting (55) having a cavity, an opening to the cavity, an access surface within said cavity and a fluid port in said access surface for operatively connecting the cavity to a source of sub-atmospheric pressure, said fluid delivery system comprising:

      (a) coupling means (54) having a first end which is operatively connected to said opening of said bottle, and a second end which has a connector fitting (130) which is complimentary with said manifold fitting (55), said connector fitting having an end surface (129) and an opening in said end surface, said coupling means having a liquid passageway (138) which is operatively connected to the opening of said bottle and which extends from said first end to the opening in said end surface;
      (b) connecting means for releasably connecting said connector fitting to said manifold fitting so that said end surface (129) abuts said access surface and said liquid passageway (138) is aligned with said fluid port for operatively connecting said fluid port to the opening of said bottle; and
      (c) sealing means for forming a seal between said end surface and said access surface around said fluid port is disclosed.

    • A magnetic conveyor system for transporting test samples in tubes disposed in a sample rack having a magnetic or magnetically attractive region is described. The magnetic conveyor system includes a drive system, a magnet coupled to the drive system and movable in response to the drive system and a tray having a first surface adapted to receive the sample rack. The magnet is spaced a predetermined distance from the first surface of the tray such that the magnet provides a magnetic force at the surface of the tray. The magnetic force engages the magnetically attractive region of the sample rack disposed on the tray to thereby move the sample rack along the first surface of the tray in response to movement of the drive system. When the tray reaches the end of the rack it is moved onto a processing queue tray where it is available for test purposes. A barcode reader reads a bar code on each test sample as it is placed on the process queue to identify one or more tests to perform. When all samples have received the individual tests the rack exits to an output queue for disposal. When a test must be made on an immediate basis out of normal processing order a sample rack can be inserted into the process queue via a priority rack feed. In the indicated manner, testing can continue without interruption as new racks are added and completed racks removed.
