Abstract

The invention provides an incubation vessel supporting apparatus, including a moveable support and a plurality of incubation vessel mountings carried by the support and moveable independently relative to the support such that, in use, each of the plurality of vessel mountings is simultaneously independently moveable so that each vessel mounted by the mountings is capable of movement to achieve substantially the same temperature/time integral. Such vessel supports can be used in, for example, an automated assay apparatus.
