Abstract

A system for delivery of liquid to and removal of liquid from a sample is provided. The system includes a primary device that contains the sample and at least one valve configured to allow liquid to be delivered to and removed from the sample; at least one reservoir that is configured to receive a volume of liquid; a secondary device including at least one port configured to receive the at least one reservoir and configured to be coupled to the primary device; and a tertiary device configured to receive the secondary device and comprising mechanical modules that deliver the volume of liquid from the at least one reservoir to the sample and remove the volume of liquid from the sample. Positioning the primary device in the secondary device causes the volume of liquid in the at least one reservoir to be delivered to the sample contained within the primary device.
