摘要: Apparatus is provided for automatically scanning electronically each well of a multi-well tray containing many liquid samples. A light source, preferably single passed through the wells to an array photosensitive cells, one well. There also calibrating or comparison cell receiving light. Electronic apparatus reads in sequence, quickly completing scan without physical movement any parts. The resultant signals are compared with signal from and other stored data determinations made displayed printed out. Thereby, by methods invention, such matters as minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) drugs identification microorganisms achieved.
