The present disclosure generally relates to a multi-well reservoir plate and methods of using the same. The multi-well reservoir plate includes a frame portion coupled to a plate portion, where a number of receptacles are formed in the plate portion. The receptacles or wells are sized to receive and support a substance without permitting the substance to leak or discharge from a passage formed in a lower portion of the well and in fluid communication with an upper portion of the well where the substances is supported. In one embodiment, the wells are at least partially filled with a substance, the substance is supported the in the wells for an amount of time, and then the substance is discharged from the wells by applying a force to the substance. By way of example, the force may be a pressure applied to an upper surface of the substance, a pressure (e.g., vacuum) applied to a lower surface of the substance, and/or an inertial force generated by an acceleration of the substance. |
