example if the sample device includes 16 different test sites the following tests can be performed from a single sample injected into a single sample device these tests are commonly required for water treatment facilities the sample device can be configured to support different types of water sample tests that may be needed for different water utilities for example a city using well water may need to perform different tests than a city using river water the reagents in the sample device can be customized to support the type of water utility that will be using the sample device the sample device can also be configured to support sampling applications other than testing water for utilities other tests which are more common in other industries include fluorescence testing and electrochemical testing in fluorescence testing one wavelength of electromagnetic radiation often in the ultraviolet frequency is transmitted into the sample which absorbs energy from the radiation source the sample material then re transmits a longer wavelength of electromagnetic radiation and the amount of the longer wavelength transmitted depends on the concentration of a particular molecule in the sample in electrochemical testing a probe is inserted into the sample and the voltage current and or resistance transmitted by the probe can be equated to a specific characteristic of the sample for example with a ph probe the voltage potential between the probe and the hydrogen ions in the sample solution is measured and in a conductivity probe the electrical resistance of the sample solution is measured the present invention and its advantages are best understood by referring to the drawings the elements of the drawings are not necessarily to scale emphasis instead being placed upon clearly illustrating the principles of the invention one embodiment of.
