  • Publication number: 20190234842
    Abstract: A system, method and kit for preparing a cellular biological sample are disclosed. In a particular embodiment, the disclosed system (200) is configured to mate with a substrate (208), such as a microscope slide, and provide the fluidics that can be used to perform a particular sample preparation protocol. The disclosed system is particularly suited for use in a point-of-care setting, such as in a surgical suite or in a resource-limited or remote setting where automation of the sample preparation protocol is not a viable alternative.
