Device and method for concentration of samples by microcrystallization

Abstract

A device and method for simultaneously concentrating a plurality of samples in small volumes based on the principle of cystallization. The device comprises a device for concentrating a plurality of samples comprising: a first temperature control means (12) having a plurality of container means (40/50) for containing said plurality of samples; a second complementary temperature control means (11) having a plurality of conducting means (22) which are adapted to be inserted in respective samples in said plurality of container means (40/50); and insulating means (30) for insulating said first temperature control means (12) from said temperature control means (11) such than an amount of heat from said plurality of samples is dissipated through said plurality of conducting means (22).
