Abstract: A flow cell having a support surface, and an integrated fluid reservoir made of two foil layers arranged on the support surface and joined with each other to enclose a storage space and a transport channel. The transport channel extends from a burst point that closes the storage space to a connecting opening and can be opened by fluid flowing from the storage space. A first of the foil layers of the fluid reservoir faces away from the support surface and projects beyond a second of the foil layers of the fluid reservoir that faces the support surface, and is bonded with the support surface in a projecting region.
