ABSTRACT:
A biological cell sample holder for use in vibrational spectroscopy. The sample holder includes a rectangular body that has a central relief area and an opening through the relief area. A porous membrane is disposed in the opening and a metal coated disk is disposed on top of the porous membrane. The disk has pores of a predetermined size to allow fluid to pass through the disk but retain cells of interest on the disk.
