Abstract
A device for carrying out chemical and/or biological reactions comprises a sample chamber (38) formed by a first portion (12) and a second portion (26) and designed for holding the sample. With the aid of a moving means (46,50) the sample can be moved in the sample chamber (38). The second portion (26) is connected via an intermediate element (27) with a heating and cooling-control element (29) for heating and cooling the sample. For ensuring good temperature conductivity and resistance to the sample of the second portion (26), in a preferred embodiment, the second portion (26) is made of ceramic.
