Device and method for holding and analysing a sample

摘要

A device for holding a sample for optical fingerprinting analysis comprises a carrier, and a distribution of non-specific interacting surfaces extending across said carrier. At least one fluidic channel allows a fluid sample to flow through at least a part of said carrier to get in touch with one or more of said non-specific interacting surfaces. One or more optical windows adjacent to said non-specific interacting surfaces enable optical analysis of results of said sample getting in touch with said non-specific interacting surfaces at multiple locations of the carrier.
