Abstract (en)
The invention relates to a device and a method for rapidly changing and controlling the temperature of diagnostic consumables and their contents in a diagnostic analyser system and provides a system for performing biochemical assays with a fluid, comprising a circular disc-shaped container with at least one compartment for taking up the fluid to be processed in the biochemical assay, wherein the circular disc-shaped container has a centrally arranged acceptance for an axis; a thermal chamber, comprising a housing for accommodating the circular disc-shaped container, wherein the housing comprises a flat upper surface and a flat inner bottom surface, and wherein a cold plate that is connected to a cooling element is arranged above the flat inner bottom surface inside the housing of the thermal chamber, and an inlet and an outlet for an air supply; and a drive comprising the axis with an upper end for its connection to the circular disc-shaped container by crossing a bottom surface of the thermal chamber's housing, wherein the axis is connected to a motor for rotating the axis, and wherein the axis is further connected to a motor for moving the axis vertically inside the thermal chamber.
