REACTION VESSEL HOLDER AND MOLECULE DETECTION DEVICE

摘要

A reaction vessel holder (120) receives a reaction vessel (110). The reaction vessel (110) has a portion that is substantially optically transparent to light of a first range of wavelengths. The reaction vessel holder (120) comprises a body having a high thermal conductivity that is thermally coupled to and supports the reaction vessel (120). The body is further thermally coupled to a thermal device (130) for heating or cooling the reaction vessel holder (120) and thereby the reaction vessel (110). The body comprises a transparent portion that is substantially optically transparent to the light of the first range of wavelengths. The optically transparent portion of the reaction vessel (110) faces the transparent portion of the body such that light of the first range of wavelengths to and/or from the sample in the reaction vessel (120) can pass through the transparent portion.
