ABSTRACT:
A device for producing rapid temperature changes around microscopic samples comprises two hollow channels (5,6) positioned at the same plane but at an angle to each other, FIG.1. Streams of solutions (9, 10) flowing from the respective channels are maintained at different temperatures through heating or cooling elements (7, 8) conducting heat to or away from the channels. Initially, the sample (12) is surrounded by stream (9) at initial temperature, FIG.3. After flow of this stream stops, the sample is surrounded by another stream (10) at a different temperature. This results in the temperature change, which does not depend on the volume of liquid in the system and on the size of heating or cooling elements.
