Abstract

A flow cell for use with a spectrometer is described. The flow cell includes a waveguide having a hollow core. An inlet is fluidly coupled at a first end of the hollow core, and an outlet is fluidly coupled at a second end of the hollow core. A window at the inlet is optically coupled to the waveguide at the second end, and a mirror at the outlet is optically coupled to the waveguide at the second end. The flow cell also includes a first conduit configured to couple a fluid to the inlet, and a second conduit configured to couple the fluid to the outlet. Methods and systems using the flow cell are described. For example, methods and systems for monitoring a bioreactor.
