Patent ID: 7351379

Claim:
A structure comprising a plurality of form-in-place gaskets that are spaced at uniform intervals to form a plurality of fluid containment structures, wherein each fluid containment structure includes an inlet and an outlet through the form-in-place gasket in a plane parallel a substrate and a cover and not through the substrate and the cover, wherein the inlet and the outlet are disposed on opposite ends of the containment structure, wherein each of the fluid containment structures are in fluid communication with an external fluid dispensing system via the inlet of each containment structure, wherein each form-in-place gasket is disposed on the substrate, wherein each form-in-place gasket forms a permanent seal between the form-in-place gasket and the cover, wherein the form-in-place gasket and the substrate define each fluid containment structure, wherein each fluid containment structure is contained on the top by the cover, wherein each fluid containment structure is contained on the side by the form-in-place gasket, wherein each fluid containment structure is contained on the bottom by the substrate, wherein each fluid containment structure is in operable association with an array, wherein the form-in-place gaskets consist of gasket materials selected from at least the following: silicon sealants, urethane, polysulfide, latex, and acrylic sealants, and wherein the cover and the substrate are made of different materials than the form-in-place gasket.
