4.4 System Information
4.4.1 Sample Carriers
The cobas c 111 instrument has a direct sample reception area and does not use or
support separate sample carriers such as racks.
4.4.2 Samples
The sample area can accommodate various types of sample tubes and cups. A sample must
be identified prior to positioning at the sample area. Containers that are introduced without
prior identification will be refused and will not be processed. During analysis, the analyzer
retrieves the identification of a sample from its memory and matches it to the corresponding
sample position, then analyzing it according to the test orders defined for that sample.
• Standardized material used for calibration
• Control material used for quality control
• Patient samples
4.4.3 Sample Type
The cobas c 111 system database does not support the definition of ‘Sample Types’,
therefore a specific ‘sample type parameter’ is not available in this host interface protocol.
