Abstract

A fluid handling system is described wherein a small fluid volume (16) is placed on a reversibly-deformable support (12), which can be deformed to form a cavity. As the fluid clings to the surface of the support, it is physically agitated and mixed as the support is deformed. The deformable support can be utilized to provide fluid containers of varying sizes, to accommodate different fluid volumes and as a transport mechanism to move fluid from one location to another.
