Zusammenfassung: | The following are claimed: (1) a system for thermal cycling treatment of liqs. contg. nucleic acids in a vessel contg. a re-usable temp. control element and a disposable heating element, where the heating element is an integral part of the vessel or of the vessel's lid and is immersed in the liq. for carrying out the treatment; (2) a process for treating nucleic acids in a liq. using a cooling element and a heating element to establish two or more temps., where the cooling element is part of a re-usable device and the heating element is part of a disposable device; (3) a process for detecting nucleic acids in a sample by: (a) releasing the nucleic acid on which the detection is to depend from compartments containing it in a vessel; (b) multiplying sequence informations which depend on the presence of the nucleic acid in the vessel; and (c) detecting the sequence informations; where the nucleic acid is not removed from the vessel during or between steps (a) and (b). |
