Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to automatic transportation, processing and measurement of chemiluminescence and bioluminescence in discrete samples contained in depressions on a light-reflecting tape. The tape may have either one row of sample wells for measurement of luminescence with a single light detector, or consecutive rows of 2-10 samples or more for simultaneous measurement of luminescence with a multi-detector array having an equal number of individual detectors as there are samples in one row. Processing and measurement of up to 500 samples per hour with a single detector and up to several thousands of samples per hour with the multi-detector system is possible.
