Abstract

A heat-insulating enclosure contains temperature-regulating means and open-topped vessels each containing a sample of predetermined volume and transferred from a storage position to an analysis position in which a predetermined volume of reagent solution is contacted with the sample. Means are provided for detecting the respective temperatures of the sample and the reagent, for detecting the heat flux released and limiting thermal variations in the vicinity of each sample.
