Testing system

A testing system to collect a specimen from a subject to perform measurement to complete testing of the specimen, the testing system comprising:

• a box comprising a freight container provided on a mobile body, the box comprising an integrated plurality of unit portions arranged in a row and configured to allow:
• specimen collection by a first robot of a first processing unit for collecting and receiving the specimen;
• preprocessing for processing the collected specimen before measurement by a second robot of a second processing unit;
• and specimen measurement by a third robot of a third processing unit for measuring the preprocessed specimen, the specimen collection, preprocessing and specimen measurement to be performed within the integrated plurality of unit portions;
• wherein the integrated plurality of unit portions comprises:
• a first unit portion in which the first robot is configured to perform the specimen collection from the subject;
• a second unit portion connected to the first unit portion, and in which the third robot is configured to perform measurement of the preprocessed specimen;
• a third unit portion connected to the second unit and configured to perform output of the results of the measurement of the preprocessed specimen;
• a fourth unit portion forming an examination room, the examination room provided for examining the subject to collect the specimen from the subject, the fourth unit portion provided separately from the first, second, and third unit portions so as to prevent or reduce entry of pathogens present in the air;
• and
• a conveyance section to connect the first processing unit, the second processing unit, and the third processing unit to each other and to facilitate movement of the specimen between the first processing unit, the second processing unit, and the third processing unit, wherein
• the second processing unit is located in either the first unit portion or the second unit portion,
• the fourth unit portion is positioned adjacent to the first unit portion such that the first robot is configured to open a door to an access opening and collect the specimen from the subject in the fourth unit portion through the access opening and place the collected specimen on the conveyance section,
• the conveyance section enables:
• the specimen collected from the subject by the first robot in the first processing unit through the access opening and placed on the conveyance section, to be transferred to the second processing unit,
• the specimen transferred by the conveyance section from the first processing unit to the second processing unit to be picked from the conveyance section in the second processing unit by the second robot and preprocessed therein, and placed on the conveyance section and transferred to the third processing unit, and
• the preprocessed specimen transferred by the conveyance section from the second processing unit to the third processing unit to be picked from the conveyance section in the third processing unit by the third robot and measured therein.
