Abstract
A microculture tray comprising a plurality of pairs of wells, each pair of wells connected by a trough which extends downwardly approximately 2/3 of the depth of the well so that the wells in the pair are connected so as to allow free passage of supernatant but not of cells between the wells. The tray can be used for rapid testing of animal cells or non-motile microorganisms for the release of soluble mediators.
