| 摘要 |
The present invention relates to a fluid sample transport device (1) with reduced dead volume for processing, controlling and/or detecting a fluid sample (3), comprising: a substrate (2), wherein the upper surface of said substrate (2) comprises at least one processing, controlling and/or detecting element (19); at least one flexible membrane (4), wherein the flexible membrane (5) is arranged on the upper surface of said substrate (2); at least one plunger (5) and/or actuating element (9) for actuating an up and/or down movement of the flexible membrane (4) to cause a fluid flow and/or to stop a fluid flow; at least one cover plate (6) arranged on the upper outer surface or lower outer surface of the flexible membrane (4), wherein the cover plate (6) comprises at least one through going hole (10) and/or cut-out (10) for receiving a plunger (5) and/or actuating element (9), so that movement of said plunger (5) and/or actuating element (9) causes a pump and/or valve action of the adjacent arranged flexible membrane area to cause a fluid flow between the upper surface of said substrate (2) and the lower surface of said flexible membrane (4); and wherein at least one channel (7) to direct the fluid sample (3) flow on the substrate (2) is temporally formed by the flexible membrane.
