Zusammenfassung:	Embodiments described herein generally relate to apparatuses, cartridges, and pumps for peristaltic pumping of fluids and associated methods, systems, and devices. The pumping of fluids is, in certain cases, an important aspect of a variety of applications, such as bioanalytical applications (e.g., biological sample analysis, sequencing, identification). The inventive features described herein may, in some embodiments, provide an ability to pump fluids in ways that combine certain advantages of robotic fluid handling systems (e.g., automation, programmability, configurability, flexibility) with certain advantages of microfluidics (e.g., small fluid volumes with high fluid resolution, precision, monolithic consumables, limiting of the wetting of components to consumables).
