Provided is a method for analysing a component using a fluidic device. The method comprises the steps of providing a distribution of the component across contacting first and second fluid flows; diverting a part of the first fluid flow, a part of the second fluid flow, or parts of the first fluid flow and the second fluid flow, wherein the diverted part comprises the component; and analysing the component in the diverted part of the fluid flow. Optionally the component may be labelled prior to the analysing step. A flow apparatus for use in the method is also provided. |
