Abstract 1. AN ARTICLE FOR CARRYING OUT MICROBIOLOGICAL AND SIMILAR BIOCHEMICAL EXAMINATIONS, SAID ARTICLE COMPRISING A TEST DOSE OF AN ANTIBIOTIC SUBSTANCE WHOSE REACTIVITY, WITH A MICROORGANSIM IN A MEDIUM IN WHICH THE TEST DOSE IS BROUGHT INTO CONTACT IS THE SUBJECT OF INVESTIGATION, A CARRIER FOR SAID TEST DOSE, SAID CARRIER BEING INERT TO SAID ANTIBIOTIC SUBSTANCE, AND METALLIC MAGNETICALLY ESPONSIVE MEANS DISPOSED ON AND SUPPORTED BY SAID CARRIER AND INTACT WITH THE CARRIER AS A UNITARY BODY FOR PRESSING THE CARRIER INTO SUBSTANTIALLY UNIFORM CONTACT WITH THE MEDIUM UNDER THE ACTION OF AN EXTERNAL MAGNETIC FIELD SO THAT THE TEST DOSE IS BROUGHT INTO CONTACT WITH SAID MEDIUM, SAID MEGNETICALLY RESPONSIVE MEANS BEING DIMENSIONED AND PROPORTIONED RELATIVETO SAID CARRIER TO PROVIDE A PRE-DETERMINED OPERATIVE CONTACT PRESSURE BETWEEN THE CARRIER AND THE MEDIUM UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF THE EXTERNAL MAGNETIC FIELD, THE AMOUNT OF MAGENETICALLY RESPONSIVE MEANS BEING ONLY A VERY SMALL FRACTION OF THAT REQUIRE TO ACHIEVE THE SAME SAID CONTACT PRESSURE BY ITS ADDED WEIGHT.
