Abstract:
A disposable cartridge for preparing a sample fluid containing cells for analysis is disclosed. The cartridge includes one or more parallel preparation units, each preparation unit includes one or more chambers enclosed between seals and connected in series. Each chamber is configured for receiving an input fluid, performing a procedure affecting the fluid thereby generating an output fluid, and releasing the output fluid. A first chamber of the one or more chambers is a pressable chamber coupled to a first opening, while a last chamber of the one or more chambers is coupled to a second opening. The input fluid of the first chamber is the sample fluid. The one or more preparation units are coupleable to a compartment for performing analysis of the respective output fluids convey able via the second openings.

Claim (Index 15):
The cartridge assembly of  claim 7 , further comprising:\n the at least one pressable chamber further containing a focusing medium having a viscoelastic focusing property, wherein the focusing medium forms a part of the output fluid exiting the opening provided downstream of the at least one pressable chamber, and wherein the focusing medium is configured to align cells of the sample fluid into a single plane as the cells flow through a microchannel of the analyzing unit.
