    摘要: The invention relates to a device for transporting sample fluids into a mass spectrometer. The device comprises a well plate comprising a plurality of wells, a fluid transporting assembly, and a mass spectrometer interface. The fluid-transporting assembly is comprised of a plurality of fluid-transporting conduits, each extending from an inlet port to an outlet port, wherein the assembly exhibits sufficient flexibility to allow movable positioning of the outlet ports with respect to the inlet ports. Each inlet port of the fluid-transporting assembly is positioned in fluid communication with a different well of the well plate to form a plurality of flow paths. Each flow path originates at a well and travels, in succession, through the conduit inlet port, the conduit, the conduit outlet port, and the mass spectrometer interface. Fluids emerging from the mass spectrometer interface may be introduced into a mass spectrometer. The invention also provides a method for transporting sample fluids into a mass spectrometer.
