A method and system for capturing images of a liquid sample flowing through a field of view of an imaging device that can include stepping a focus mechanism of the imaging device through a plurality of focus values and capturing a plurality of images of the sample at each of the plurality of focus values as the sample flows through the field of view of the imaging device. In this way, image capture can proceed before a focus value has been determined and capture images that are in focus can be used for further processing subsequently.

Method and system for capturing images of a liquid sample

A holder for a pipette having a bulb is disclosed. In use, the bulb of the pipette is inserted into the holder and the user can hold the holder rather than the bulb to use the pipette. In this way, the holder enables the pipette to be held without any application of force from the user directly on the bulb. This enables the user to accurately draw a desired amount of liquid into the pipette. The holder comprises an aperture through which the bulb is accessible. The user can dispense liquid from the pipette by actuating the bulb through the aperture.
