Abstract

La présente invention concerne un dispositif analytique qui comprend : un canal d'écoulement d'échantillon ; un système optique d'éclairage, qui fournit une première lumière d'éclairage collimatée à une première surface du canal d'écoulement, et qui forme une première région d'éclairage linéaire dans le canal d'écoulement ; et une première unité de détection qui détecte une première lumière transmise générée à partir du canal d'écoulement lorsque la première lumière d'éclairage est fournie.
