Abstract
An optical particle analyser is provided; the analyser comprising: a microfluidic chip comprising: a flow channel for carrying particles; the flow channel arranged between a transparent window and a non-transparent substrate; a light source configured to emit an illumination beam towards the flow channel; wherein the microfluidic chip and the light source are arranged such that, in use, the illumination beam impinges the window at an oblique angle of incidence. By providing the optical particle analyser in this manner, high performance particle analysis may be accurately carried out.
