ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for inducing and detecting sample analyte(s) identifying fluorescence are disclosed. In particular, a system which includes at least two fiber optic means, within a "throw-away" modular component system component with at least four ports, in which sample analyte fluorescence is caused to occur, by the application of energy to sample analyte(s), is disclosed. The present invention system provides that sample analyte(s) fluorescence inducing energy be entered via an optic fiber means and that produced fluorescence be provided to a detector system via a second optic fiber means. A preferred source of sample analyte(s) fluorescence inducing energy includes lasers, and a preferred method by which to provide sample analyte(s) to the present invention system involves electrophoresis.
