capillary electrophoresis - could it be sample container/handler etc?

Discussion

Non-ProZ.com Aug 12, 2002:
comment I've seen similar machinwes but not this one. I think you may be on the right lines with auto-sampler as the whole point of this patent is that they want to automate the analysis process. The samples are stored in this device, at a given temperature, and are then injected into the capillary electrophoresis capillary for separation, which takes place at another temperature.

sampler/ sample container

Well, for sure it's something to do with campionario. But I guess it depends on the functions of the campionato cited above.

If it is "A mechanical device that is used to obtain and analyze samples", that is, if it not only collects but also analyzes, you can translate it as a sampler. (The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language: Fourth Edition. 2000)http://www.bartleby.com/61/63/S0056300.html

If it's solely for keeping the samples, you could also say sample container.

agree mocai (X) : I think the function is just analysis, so it should be just "sampler" - here in the context of electrophoresis: http://www.promega.com/geneticidproc/ussymp6proc/roberts.htm - five lines down, "automatic sampler device"
