Zusammenfassung:A system comprising an optical deck having a plurality of optical components mounted thereto; a sample deck having a slidable platform that supports a fluidic device thereon; and a fluid storage system comprising: an enclosure having a cavity; a door to open to provide access to the cavity; a temperature control assembly to regulate a temperature within the cavity; and a fluid removal assembly comprising: an elevator mechanism including a drive motor, and a stage assembly having a transport platform to hold an array of sipper tubes, wherein the drive motor is to move the array of sipper tubes bi-directionally along a Z-axis, wherein each sipper tube of the array of sipper tubes includes a distal portion that is to be inserted into a component well of a reaction component tray such that the fluids stored in the reaction component tray are removeable to be delivered to the fluidic device.
