The use of PCS in analytical systems makes it possible to do without expensive, bulky optics. Such slides being the basis for biochips in sensor systems for various applications provide a highly sensitive, high-throughput and cost-effective biological analysis system.
It is possible to produce slides with a capillary diameter of 3 microns or more. Possible configurations of the PCS are round, square, rectangular, with a center hole, other configurations and different sizes according to customer requirements.
