Abstract: A plate (10) for use in mixing and testing materials in the pharmaceutical industry is formed by a method in which apertures (22) (24) in a set of greensheets are formed by a material removal process, at least some of the apertures (25) being filled with a fugitive material (222) that escapes during sintering.

Abstract: A plate (100) for use in mixing and testing materials in the pharmaceutical industry is formed by a method in which an array of sample cells (110) contain a U -shaped structure having two vertical apertures (121, 123) connected by a horizontal passage (126) in a bottom sheet; reagents are drawn in to the vertical passages by capillary action and react in the horizontal passage. An optional version of the invention includes a relatively large reservoir (680) for containing rinsing fluids.
