The current invention concerns a fluid microscope system for analyzing and/or monitoring the contents of one or more fluid-based reactors or canalizations such as bio-reactors, micro-reactors, brewing reactors, water supply systems or sewer systems. The fluid microscope system includes a digital holographic microscope (DHM) with one or more electro-fluidic systems, capable of guiding fluid from the reactors to the DHM. The current invention also concerns an electro-fluidic system for such a fluid microscope system having any or all of the elements mentioned above. Furthermore, the current invention encompasses a method for installing, replacing and removing such an electro-fluidic system in and from a fluid microscope system, and lastly, a method for monitoring and/or observing suspended objects in a fluid in a fluid-based reactor or canalization. |
