1-46. (canceled)
A device for assaying at least one biological sample, wherein said device comprising:
- a. at least one removable cartridge, adapted to facilitate at least one assay of at least one of said biologic sample, comprising a body;
- said body comprises:
- i. at least one compartment adapted to contain said at least one biologic sample;
- ii. at least one assay location, in which said assay of said at least one biologic sample is enabled;
- and,
- b. at least one actuator adapted to interface with said cartridge to enable transportation of said biologic sample towards at least one of said assay locations.
A method for assaying at least one biological sample, said method comprising steps of:
- a. providing a device;
- said device comprises:
- i. at least one removable cartridge, said cartridge comprising a body;
- said body comprises (a) at least one compartment;
- and, (b) at least one assay location;
- ii. actuator adapted to interface with said cartridge;
- b. operating said device by steps of:
- i. inserting at least one biologic sample into said at least one compartment within said body of said removable cartridge;
- ii. operating said actuator, thereby transporting said at least one biologic sample to at least one of said assay locations;
- iii. activating said device, thereby facilitating at least one assay of at least one of said biologic sample in said cartridge.
