Tests
Dear colleagues,
in a table, talking about tests, there is this column:
样品数量which means quantity of samples. Beside you find: 3 块 ＋1 付支撑
I don't know how exactly to translate this part 付支撑, does it mean that the last one has been paid additionally? and what is the exact translation?
thanks to everyone:)

a pair of braces
I think that might be a typo - it should be 副 ('a pair of') instead of 付

A pair (set) of braces (and etc)
"付" is a quantifier, which means "pair" or "set"; "支撑" is noun, which means something like bolster, brace, crutch, support, underlay, underpin, underprop and etc. You can translate it according to its context.
