<p>An apparatus and method by which solid supports (22) may be retained in place in an array within an reaction vessel (24) but which allows easy lateral manipulation of the solid supports (22) in a defined manner to new arrays for subsequent steps in the synthesis of combinatorial chemistry libraries of compounds. According to the present invention, a pair of raks, retainers or support carriers (10,10a,10b,11a,11b) for holding solid support (22) is provided in the configuration of a solid support carrier (10,10a,10b,11a,11b) having a plurality of 'fingers', tines (18) or rods (13) extending from one end (12, 15) and between which longitudinal channels (20) or spaces are defined.</p> |
