Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03019158A2] The invention relates to a reaction device, comprising a sample chamber matrix (1), comprising at least two reaction chambers (2) whose walls are permeable with respect to electromagnetic radiation in an area required for fluorescence measurement; at least one opening (3); a heating device (8a); and a temperature measurement device (8b). The invention also relates to a device (G) for carrying out and detecting chemical reactions, comprising at least one light source (24, 25) which emits electromagnetic radiation in an area required for fluorescence measurement, a detection device (28) for the detection of electromagnetic radiation in an area required for fluorescence measurement, said unit (28) being arranged at a right angle to the at least one light source (24, 25); a control unit comprising a central unit for controlling temperature and the at least one light source (24, 25), in addition to receiving and optionally processing a signal from the detection unit (28); an opening (H) for receiving the above-mentioned reaction device (17), said reaction device (R) being able to communicate with the control unit when inserted, being arranged on the plane of the at least one light source (24, 25) below the detection unit (28). The reaction device (R) and the device (G) are suitable for carrying out and evaluating chemical reactions or biochemical reactions such as a polymerase chain reaction.
