Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	In one embodiment, a kit includes a base and a specimen removably couplable to the base. A top plate defines a plurality of apertures and is removably couplable to the base such that at least two of the apertures are associated with a specimen and each aperture defines a well with that specimen. Each well is configured to receive a sample material therein in contact with the specimen. A method includes disposing a specimen within a recessed portion of a test apparatus and coupling a top plate of the test apparatus to a base of the test apparatus such that a sealing engagement is formed between the top plate and the specimen. The top plate defines a plurality of apertures, each of at least two of the apertures collectively with the specimen defines a well. A sample material can be disposed within at least one well.
