PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a reaction receptacle apparatus which is operable by an automatic analytical instrument including one reaction receptacle or a plurality of reaction receptacles coupled with one another as an operable unit. SOLUTION: A reaction receptacle apparatus 160 is arranged to be engaged with tubular elements of a substance transfer device for transferring substances into or out of one or more individual receptacles 162 for containing chemical or biological substances. Multiple receptacles 162 are coupled to one another by a connecting rib structure that defines straight shoulders 165 along opposite sides of the reaction receptacle apparatus, and the shoulders 165 support the apparatus within reaction receptacle apparatus carrying structures. A contact-limiting element holding structure for holding contact-limiting elements 170 holds a contact-limiting element 170 in an operative orientation so as to be operatively engageable by the tubular element of the substance transfer device. A receptacle apparatus 160 manipulating structure 166 permits the reaction receptacle apparatus to move from one location to another by a robotic manipulating device, and an information panel 174 presents a surface on which information may be placed.
