I-semi-automatic biochemical analyzer iyithuluzi lomtholampilo lezokwelapha elikala okuqukethwe kwezingxenye ezihlukahlukene zegazi lomuntu nomchamo, imiphumela yokuhlaziywa kwe-biochemical yobuningi, futhi inikeza ubufakazi obuthembekile bedijithali bokuhlonza izifo ezihlukahlukene ezigulini.Kuyithuluzi elidingekayo lokuhlola lenqubo yokusebenza emtholampilo.Isebenza ezibhedlela zawo wonke amazinga.
Abahlaziyi be-semi-automatic biochemical analyzers bangahlukaniswa ngezigaba ezimbili: uhlobo lokugeleza kanye nohlobo oluhlukile.
Okubizwa ngokuthi i-flow-type-automatic biochemical analyzer kusho ukuthi ukusabela kwamakhemikhali ngemva kokuxuba amasampula azohlolwa futhi ama-reagents anezinto zokulinganisa ezifanayo aqedwa ngenqubo yokugeleza epayipini elifanayo.Lesi isizukulwane sokuqala se-automated biochemical analyzer.Esikhathini esidlule, i-biochemical analyzer eneziteshi eziningi ibhekisela kulesi sigaba.Kukhona ukungcoliswa okubucayi okukhulu, imiphumela ayinembile kangako, futhi manje isiqediwe.
Umehluko omkhulu phakathi kwe-discrete othomathikhi ye-biochemical analyzer kanye nohlobo lokugeleza ukuthi ukusabela kwamakhemikhali phakathi kwesampula ngayinye ezohlolwa kanye nengxube ye-reagent iqedwa emkhunjini wayo wokusabela, ongajwayele ukungcoliswa kabi kanye nemiphumela ethembekile.
