Abstract

Methods and apparatus for analysis of multiple samples by photoacoustic spectroscopy are disclosed. Particularly, a photoacoustic spectroscopy sample array vessel including a vessel body having multiple sample cells connected thereto is disclosed. At least one acoustic detector is acoustically coupled with the vessel body. Methods for analyzing the multiple samples in the sample array vessels using photoacoustic spectroscopy are provided.

Claims (5)

1. A photoacoustic spectroscopy sample array vessel, comprising:

a microtiter plate having multiple wells for holding samples; and

at least one transducer acoustically coupled to the microtiter plate for detecting acoustic signals generated by analytes in the multiple samples.

2. The sample array vessel of claim 1 , including at least 24 wells in the microtiter plate.

3. The sample array vessel of claim 1 , including at least 384 wells in the microtiter plate.
