Claim:
1. A device comprising: a first component comprising a first channel formed in a first material and including at least a first port, the first channel including at least one portion having a cross-sectional dimension greater than 200 microns, wherein the first material has a water vapor permeability of less than about 0.05 g·mm/m a second component comprising a second channel formed in a second material and including at least a second port, the second channel including at least one portion having a cross-sectional dimension less than 200 microns, wherein the second material has an optical transmission of greater than 90% between 400 nm and 800 nm wavelengths of light; a fluidic connector that can be connected to the first and second components, the fluid connector comprising a fluid path including a fluid path inlet and a fluid path outlet, wherein upon connection, the fluid path inlet fluidically connects to the first port and the fluid path outlet fluidically connects to the second port to allow fluid communication between the first and second channels, wherein the first and second channels are not in fluid communication with one another absent connection via the fluidic connector, wherein the first and second components are substantially planar and lie on top of one another, and wherein both the first port and the second port are accessible from a top surface of the first component or the second component.
