Flow cell assemblies and related systems

An apparatus, comprising:

• a flow cell assembly, comprising;
• a flow cell comprising a plurality of channels, each channel comprising a first channel opening and a second channel opening;
• a flow cell manifold coupled to the flow cell and including a flow cell manifold inlet, a plurality of fluidic lines, and a plurality of flow cell manifold outlets fluidically coupled to the flow cell manifold inlet by the corresponding fluidic lines, each of the flow cell manifold outlets being coupled to a corresponding first channel opening of the flow cell;
• and
• a plurality of gaskets assemblies, comprising:
• an adhesive stack;
• and
• a gasket, the adhesive stack comprising a first side bonded to the gasket and a second side,
• wherein the second side of the gasket assemblies are bonded to the flow cell at the second channel openings and to the flow cell manifold at the flow cell manifold inlet;
• a system, comprising:
• a vacuum chuck to support the flow cell;
• and
• a flow cell interface to establish a fluidic coupling between the system and the flow cell, wherein the flow cell interface comprises:
• a plurality of plunger bores corresponding to the gasket assemblies;
• a plurality of plungers, each plunger positioned in one of the plunger bores and defining a fluid path to enable fluid to pass therethrough;
• and
• springs positioned to bias the corresponding plunger into engagement with the corresponding gasket assembly.
