Fluidic System
2.4 Functional modules
The fluidic system can be divided into the following functional modules:
aspiration/dispensing module, counting module, washing module, hydraulic
module, mixing module and waste discharging module. See the figure below for
the interaction of these modules.

2.4.1 Aspiration/dispensing module
The aspiration/dispensing module includes a motor that drives the 50 uL and 10
mL syringes, the former for aspirating/dispensing the whole blood sample and
the latter for aspirating/dispensing the prediluted sample, diluent and lyse. See
the figure below for details.
