Abstract:
1. A heating and magnetic module for a device for the purpose of purifying nucleic acids, comprising a vessel arrangement, said arrangement having a vessel carrier plate, a plurality of vessels arranged in said vessel carrier in a row or matrix form, with a grid spacing, a heating plate on which said vessel arrangement is placed, and a plurality of magnets, said plurality of magnets being determined by the number of the vessels, a magnet carrier plate in which said magnets are arranged in such a manner that one magnet is functionally assigned to each vessel in an identical relative position, and that said heating plate and the magnet carrier plate, forming a plate assembly together, are arranged one above the other, when in a horizontal orientation, and at least two guide bores being inserted into said heating plate, said magnet carrier plate having guide rods which are guided into said guide bores, wherein a coil spring sits on each guide rod between the heating plate and the magnet carrier plate, such that the heating plate and the magnet carrier plate can be guided vertically relative to each other between a first end position, wherein the coil springs are unloaded, and a second end position, wherein the coil springs are tensioned.
