    Abstract: Library preparation systems and methods are disclosed. In an implementation, a modular bay for preparing a library of samples for sequencing, the modular bay comprising a contact dispenser and a working area comprising a working plate receptacle adapted to receive a working plate, a thermocycler, a magnet, and a drawer. The drawer comprising a consumables area adapted to receive a sample plate adapted to contain a sample, and a plurality of consumables for interacting with the sample in the working plate. The contact dispenser is linearly movable in a longitudinal direction between the consumables area and the working area, such that the contact dispenser is configured to (i) move the sample from the sample plate in the consumables area to the working plate in the working area, and (ii) move the plurality of consumables between the consumables area and the working plate in the working area.

    Abstract: Gasket assemblies and related system and methods. An apparatus includes a system, a flow cell, and a plurality of gasket assemblies. The system includes a flow cell interface and the flow cell has one or more channels. Each channel has a first channel opening and a second channel opening. The first channel openings are positioned at a first end of the flow cell and the second channel openings are positioned at a second end of the flow cell. A gasket assembly coupled at each second channel opening. Each gasket assembly includes an adhesive stack and a gasket. The adhesive stack includes a first side bonded to the gasket and a second side bonded to the flow cell. The flow cell interface is engagable with the corresponding gaskets to establish a fluidic coupling between system and the flow cell.
