1. A low thermal mass fluorometer, the fluorometer comprising:

  • a reaction chamber;

    a heater integrally formed with the reaction chamber;

    a reaction vessel suspended within the reaction chamber, the reaction vessel positioned to leave a space between the reaction vessel and the reaction chamber;

    a light emitting diode positioned to supply fluorescence excitation to the reaction chamber, the light emitting diode positioned geometrically orthogonal to the reaction vessel; and

    an photodetector positioned to detect fluorescence emission from the reaction chamber.
