Abstract: Systems, including methods and apparatus, for analyzing partitioned samples, such as droplets, using recirculated fluid. The systems may be used to analyze a plurality of partitioned samples, with fluid used with initial samples reused with later samples. This reuse, or recirculation, may reduce the amount of fluid required for performing multiple analyses, with concomitant reductions in costs. Moreover, in some embodiments, it may simplify operation by increasing the number of analyses that may be performed before fluid must be replenished or replaced.
