Abstract:
Methods and devices for biological sample preparation and analysis are disclosed. A device may have a circular arrangement of containers, with a connecting structure such as a disk. Fluidics channels between containers allow the performance of different techniques for sample preparation, such as lysing, washing and elution. The device may be pen-shaped and have a sample drawing needle connected to the containers.
Abstract:
Methods and devices for biological sample preparation and analysis are disclosed. A device may have a linear or circular arrangement of containers, with a connecting structure such as a bar or disk. Fluidics channels between containers allow the performance of different techniques for sample preparation, such as lysing, washing and elution. Different functional elements, such as grinders or mixers, may be attached to the containers.
