摘要: Liquid reservoirs, cartridge assemblies and related systems and methods are disclosed. An example implementation includes an apparatus that includes a body, a cover, and a lid assembly. The body includes a top surface and a storage chamber having an opening at the top surface. The cover covers or is positioned within the opening of the storage chamber. The lid assembly is coupled to the top surface and covers the opening of the storage chamber. The top surface and the first portion define a plenum. The cover is at least one of piercable, breakable, or movable to allow the storage chamber to be fluidly coupled to the plenum without venting the plenum to atmosphere.

摘要: A cartridge assembly comprises a housing having an illumination chamber and a well plate. The well plate is maintained within the housing and has liquid wells to receive desired amounts of liquids. The well plate includes a fluidics analysis station aligned with the illumination chamber, and an interface window and interface ports located at the fluidics analysis station. The well plate includes a valve station and pump station. A piercer unit is provided in the housing and positioned proximate to the wells. The piercer unit includes a piercer element and is to be moved to a piercing position where the piercer element pierces a cover for the corresponding well. A pump assembly on the well plate at the pump station manages fluid flow through the channels between the pump station and the fluidics analysis station. The housing includes a flow cell chamber to receive a removable flow cell cartridge.

摘要: Actuation systems and methods for use with flow cells. An example apparatus includes a flow cell assembly including a flow cell including at least one channel, a flow cell inlet, and a flow cell outlet. The flow cell assembly includes a gasket assembly operatively fluidically coupled to the flow cell and having a flow cell inlet gasket and a flow cell outlet gasket. The flow cell inlet gasket having a through bore and being fluidically coupled to the flow cell inlet. The flow cell outlet gasket having a through bore and being fluidically coupled to the flow cell outlet. The apparatus includes a reagent cartridge adapted to receive the flow cell assembly and including a pair of reagent cartridge ports adapted to be fluidly coupled to the flow cell inlet gasket and the flow cell outlet gasket.

摘要: Detection apparatus includes a microfluorometer having an objective, an excitation radiation source, and a detector. The detection apparatus also includes a fluidic system for delivering reagents from a reagent cartridge to a flow cell. The fluidic system includes a manifold body having a plurality of fluidic channels configured for fluid communication between the reagent cartridge and the flow cell. The fluidic system also includes a plurality of reagent sippers. The fluidic system also includes a valve configured to mediate fluid between reagent reservoirs and the flow cell. The detection apparatus also includes a flow cell latch clamp module having a clamp cover for holding the flow cell. The objective is configured to direct excitation radiation from the radiation source to the flow cell and to direct emission from the flow cell to the detector. The microfluorometer is movable to acquire wide-field images of different areas of the flow cell.
