<p>A continuous temperature-gradient incubation apparatus designed to solve the problem of moving of liquid vapor generated on the side of high temperature toward the side of low temperature to thereby cause condensation. There is provided a multiwell incubation apparatus having a well-housing vessel made of a heat conducting material and, detachably housed therein, liquid-storing wells lined in transverse rows and longitudinal rows, the multiwell incubation apparatus fitted with a liquid or gas flow channel or bath for supply of a gas saturated with the vapor of the liquid and having incubation temperatures differing between individual well transverse rows with a given temperature difference, the temperatures realizing a temperature series forming a given temperature difference along the longitudinal rows, characterized in that a heat source for realizing the lowest temperature of the given temperature series is installed outside the well rows and along the wells lined on the transverse row of one side of the housing vessel, and that another heat source for realizing the highest temperature of the given temperature series is installed outside the well rows and along the side opposite to the above one side, and that a separator is installed on each transverse row of identical temperature.</p> |
