Title:
FIXTURES FOR USE IN PARALLEL PROCESSING BIO-CHIPS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003015921
Kind Code:
A9
Abstract:
A holder (10) housing defines a plurality of individual wells (14) sized to retain a substrates such as a bio-chip (20) or microscope slide in a vertical orientation, and to retain a volume of liquid (22) sufficient to immerse the bio-chip. The wells are spaced-apart with an approximately 9 mm pitch and the holder has a form factor approximating an SBS Standard 96-well microplate. The holder configuration is such that it can be manipulated with standard robotic equipment (30), and can be fabricated using injection molding processes.
