  • Publication number: 20050211555
    Abstract: A method for analyzing a fluid sample is provided which includes providing a plurality of fluid samples to be analyzed and inputting each one of the plurality of fluid samples into corresponding ones of a plurality of capillaries defined within a substrate. The method further includes applying a positive charge to each one of the plurality of fluid samples at a first end of each one of the plurality of capillaries and a negative charge to each one of the plurality of fluid samples at a second end of each one of the plurality of capillaries. The method also includes transmitting an infrared light through each one of the plurality of fluid samples at a substantially same time and detecting the infrared light transmitted through each one of the plurality of fluid samples. The method further includes generating an absorption map capable of being displayed as at least one data point based on the detection of the infrared light transmitted through each one of the plurality of fluid samples.

  • Publication number: 20050214167
    Abstract: An apparatus for conducting an analysis of a biological sample is provided. The apparatus includes a sphere designed for application to the biological sample where the sphere is suited for receiving infrared radiation that can be communicated to the biological sample and reflected from the biological sample. The communication to and from the biological sample is through the sphere when the infrared radiation is received.

  • Publication number: 20050153435
    Abstract: A silicon substrate for enabling the analysis of a biological sample is provided which includes the silicon substrate having an active surface and a backside surface where the active surface of the silicon substrate has a plurality of recessed regions defined therein. The recessed region has a probe region on one side of the recessed region where each one of the plurality of recessed regions is defined as an elongated well which is substantially rectangular. The plurality of recessed regions is configured for receiving a plurality of biological samples with a complimentary probe region on an opposite side of each one of the plurality of recessed regions and a sample receiving region being between the probe region and the complimentary probe region. The sample receiving region is capable of receiving the biological sample for analysis and the complimentary probe region is capable of interfacing with an electrically conductive probe for enabling the analysis.
