Zusammenfassung:A microarray carrier (200) for use with a microarray applicator (100) is provided. The microarray carrier (200) includes a body (202) defining a cavity (210). The microarray carrier (200) also includes a plurality of tabs (220, 222, 224, 226) disposed on the body (202) and extending into the cavity (210). Each of the plurality of tabs (220, 222, 224, 226) defines a contour line along a length thereof extending from a proximal end of the tab adjacent the body to a support surface (228, 230, 232, 234) spaced apart from the body. The support surface (228, 230, 232, 234) is inclined with respect to the contour line where the contour line intersects the support surface (228, 230, 232, 234). A projected area of each of the plurality of tabs (220, 222, 224, 226) onto a horizontal plane (HP) of the cavity (210) is greater than an area of the support surface (228, 230, 232, 234). The support surface (228, 230, 232, 234) is aligned non-perpendicular to the horizontal plane (HP).
