Abstract
The present disclosure provides devices, systems, methods and kits for processing a sample. In some cases, a sample is processed in preparation for an assay (e.g., polymerase chain reaction and immunofluorescence-based target detection) by an analytic device. In some cases, the processing is automated. In some cases, the processing is substantially automated. The systems provided herein can comprise a cartridge (e.g., one-time use) and a dock (e.g., re-useable) for receiving the cartridge. In some cases, the devices and systems provided herein are portable.
