Abstract

A distributor, in particular for a chemical analysis arrangement, is disclosed, having at least two plate-like housing parts which lie against each other with respective contact faces, wherein in the contact face of at least one housing part there is provided at least one channel that is covered by the other housing part. In a distributor device of that kind it is desirable to be able to structure the channels as precisely as possible and for the channels to be well-sealed, and for the volume to correspond as accurately as possible to a predetermined value. To that end, in one of the two contact faces there is provided a recess for receiving a bonding agent, which recess is arranged adjacent to the channel and follows its course.
