    Abstract: Systems and Methods for Assessing Biological Samples An instrument (100) for biological analysis includes a base (300), an excitation source (402), an optical sensor (408), an excitation optical system (400), and an emission optical system (400). The base is configured to receive a sample holder (305) comprising a plurality of biological samples (310). The optical sensor is configured to receive emissions from the biological samples in response to the excitation source. The instrument may additionally include a sensor lens enclosed by a lens case and a focusing mechanism including a gear (455) that engages the lens case, the focusing mechanism being accessible outside the enclosure for adjusting a focus. The may instrument further include a sensor aperture (478) disposed along an emission optical path and a blocking structure disposed to cooperate with the sensor aperture such that none of the reflected radiation from an illuminated surface (432) near the sample holder is received by the optical sensor that does not also reflect off another surface of the instrument.

    Abstract: [0032] In one aspect, a thermal cycler system is disclosed. The thermal cycler can be comprised of a device housing and a cover that is operably connected to the device housing. The cover can include a handle portion, a device lid portion, a sample block platen and a link bar. The device lid portion is attached to the proximal side of the handle portion with a pin. The sample block platen is operably connected to the handle portion such that the sample block platen is positioned against the sample block when the handle portion is flush with the device lid portion and the cover is in a closed position. The link bar is operably connected to the device housing and the pin such that a distal side of the handle portion is elevated away from the device lid portion when the cover is moved to an open position.
