Filed:

Apr 7, 2021

Appl. No.:

17/224448

Inventors:

- Salt Lake City UT, US
Bruce K. Gale - Taylorsville UT, US
Christopher Morrow - Layton UT, US
James Smith - Yardley PA, US

Assignee:

Carterra, Inc. - Salt Lake City UT

International Classification:

G01N 35/00
G01N 35/10

Abstract:

A flow cell applicator system can include a flow cell applicator including multiple flow cells to deposit multiple substance spots on a deposition surface, and a positioning assembly to position, to dock, and to unlock the multiple flow cells relative to the deposition surface. The substance spots can be depositable when the multiple flow cells are docked on the deposition surface. The flow cell applicator system can also include a spot deposition identifier operably associated with a processor to: record data related to substance spots as applied on the deposition surface, identify data related to substance spots previously deposited on the deposition surface, or both.

International Classification:

B01L 3/02
B05C 11/10
B05D 1/26
B05C 5/02

Abstract:

A system for depositing substances onto a deposition surface can comprise a first contact spotter comprising multiple spotting orifices fed by multiple fluid inlet conduits such that the first contact spotter is capable of depositing multiple spots of different substances onto the deposition surface simultaneously, and a second contact spotter comprising a second spotting orifice fed by a second fluid inlet conduit. The system can also include a positioning device adapted to alternatively position and seal the first contact spotter and second contact spotter on the deposition surface at an overlapping location.

International Classification:

B01J 19/00

US Classification:

506 32, 506 40

Abstract:

The present disclosure provides apparatuses, systems, and methods involving a spotter for depositing a substance on a submerged surface. The spotter comprises an outlet cavity defined at least in part by a spotting orifice, a first opening, and a second opening. The spotter also comprises a first conduit fluidly coupled to the first opening and a second conduit fluidly coupled to the second opening. The spotter is adapted so that fluid flowing through the first conduit and the second conduit is communicated among the first opening, the second opening, and a submerged deposition surface when the sealing orifice is sealed against the submerged deposition surface to form a deposition spot on the submerged deposition surface. The submerged deposition surface is within a liquid such that the liquid covers the deposition spot upon removal of the orifice from the deposition surface.
