Patent Issued for Branching off fluidic sample with low influence on source flow path (USPTO 12140575).

Agilent Technologies Inc. has been issued a patent for a sample management device that allows for branching off a defined amount of a fluidic sample without disrupting the flow in the source path. The device includes a fluidic valve that can establish a fluidic coupling point to temporarily divert a specific portion of the sample for further processing. This innovation aims to provide a flexible and precise sample management system for applications such as liquid chromatography. [Extracted from the article]
