We claim the ornamental design for a reagent carrier for use in an automated analyzer, as shown and described.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a reagent carrier for use in an automated analyzer, hereinafter referred to as the reagent carrier.

FIG. 2 is a side view in elevation of the reagent carrier of FIG. 1.

FIG. 3 is a top plan view of the reagent carrier of FIG. 1.

FIG. 4 is a rear view in elevation of the reagent carrier of FIG. 1.

FIG. 5 is a front view in elevation of the reagent carrier of FIG. 1; and,

FIG. 6 is a bottom plan view reagent carrier of FIG. 1.

The broken line showing of the base structure and the reagent container connectors is for illustrative purposes only and forms no part of the claimed design.
