Abstract
A reactor for sequentially modifying a molecule attached to a solid phase support, including: a plurality of substrate carriers, each substrate carrier capable of carrying a solid phase support to which a molecule to be modified can be attached; a plurality of reagent chambers, each capable of comprising a reagent for effecting a modification of the molecule; and means for individually bringing each of a plurality of chosen substrate carriers into a reagent-contact mode and a reagent-non-contact mode with each of a plurality of reagent chambers. Each of a plurality of the substrate carriers is capable of sequential contact with the contents of a plurality of the reagent chambers. The sequential contact is capable of resulting in the sequential modification of molecules attached to solid phase supports on the plurality of substrate carriers.
