Process and Device for Mixing a Heterogeneous Solution into a Homogeneous Solution

The present invention relates to a process for mixing a heterogeneous solution containing at least two different liquids and, optionally, at least one solid entity, so as to obtain a homogeneous solution, the process comprising the following steps: a) all or part of the heterogeneous solution is placed in at least one vessel having a longitudinal axis; b) the vessel is positioned on a support driven about a rotation axis, the longitudinal axis being inclined to the rotation axis; and c) the support is made to undergo a movement so as to subject the solution contained in the vessel to successive accelerations and decelerations of sinusoidal intensity, thereby stirring said heterogeneous solution, which becomes homogeneous. The invention also relates to a device for implementing the above process. A preferential application of said invention is in the field of medical diagnostics.
