Abstract
An acoustic analyzer system is provided that includes an acoustic analyzer having a reusable glass flow cell positioned within the acoustic analyzer. A disposable card body may be inserted into the acoustic analyzer and deliver sample fluid to the glass flow cell so that acoustic-wave assisted measurements may be performed on the sample fluid. The disposable card body may also deliver wash fluid to the glass flow cell, and receive waste sample fluid and waste wash fluid from the glass flow cell to prepare the glass flow cell for subsequent sample fluids. Numerous other embodiments are provided.
