Abstract

A reaction vessel unit having at least one reaction vessel which has a receiving chamber for receiving a liquid, wherein the receiving chamber has a retention area which has such a surface texture and/or shape that due to an adhesive force between the liquid and the retention area and a cohesion within the liquid, the retention area exerts an increased retention effect on the liquid with respect to the surrounding area, so that a predetermined small amount of liquid is retained at or in the retention area when the liquid is removed from the receiving chamber by centrifuging. Further disclosed is a method for selectively removing a liquid from a reaction vessel of the reaction vessel unit by centrifugation and a method for introducing a liquid containing a target substance into a reaction vessel with a guiding system by centrifugation or magnetic or electrostatic interaction.
