<p>The present invention provides a polymer synthesis apparatus for building a polymer chain by sequentially adding polymer units in a reagent solution, said apparatus comprising: a head assembly having a plurality of nozzles mounted thereto in generally spaced-apart relation, each nozzle being coupled to a reservoir of liquid reagent for controlled delivery therethrough; a base assembly having at least one reaction well; a transport mechanism coupled to at least one of said head assembly and said base assembly to produce relative movement therebetween to position said reaction well and a selected one nozzle in alignment for deposition of a liquid reagent into said reaction well for synthesis of a polymer chain; and a sliding seal positioned between said head assembly and said base assembly forms a common chamber enclosing both said reaction well and said nozzles therein. <IMAGE></p> |
