    Abstract: : The invention relates to a system comprising at least one disposable comprising one or more wells in a body, wherein the wells are capable of acting as vessel for one or more chemical, biochemical or molecular biological reactions requiring one or more prescribed reaction temperatures according to a prescribed protocol, said body comprising a flat bottom side building a first heating surface capable of homogeneously conducting heat into the wells and a flat upper side comprising well openings sealed by means of a transparent sealing foil building a second heating surface capable of homogeneously conducting heat in the wells, said body being arranged in a rigid frame support; one or more separate tempering units TUx, each tempering unit TUx comprising at least one first temperature-controlled plates with a planar seat to conform to the flat bottom side of the disposable; transport means comprising a carrier in which the disposable is placed and a moving mechanism for moving the disposable into and/or out of the tempering unit TUx and for contacting one of the heating surfaces of the disposable with the first temperature-controlled plates; a control unit comprising one or more processors configured to activate the tempering units TUx and the transport means for the one or more chemical, biochemical, or molecular biological reactions. The solution of the present invention is particularly adapted for high throughput reactions or assay.
