1. A sample cell for retaining a fluid sample, the sample cell comprising:

  • a handle;

    a first plate having a planar surface, the first plate connected to the handle by a first deformable region;

    a second plate having a planar surface, the second plate connected to the handle by a second deformable region; and

    the planar surface of first plate and the planar surface of the second plate defining between them a measurement zone;

    the distance between the planar surface of first plate and the planar surface of the second plate selected to allow capillary action to draw and retain a fluid sample in the measurement zone, and the first and second deformable regions being configured to alter the distance between the plates.
