MICROREACTOR WITH AUXILIARY FLUID MOTION CONTROL

摘要

An apparatus for performing a biological or biochemical reaction that, in certain embodiments, has the ability to generate flow in a reaction site container by applying a force to a liquid medium that is outside of the reaction site container. In some embodiments, a flow generating component such as a gas bubble moves within a container and forces an agitating fluid to move through a reaction site container. In some embodiments, the movement of the agitating fluid applies shear stress to cells that are maintained within the reaction site container.
