FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: group of inventions refers to medicine, and can be used for multiplex analysis. An analysis device comprises a reaction space, two sets of individually coded microcarriers (2), and each microcarrier is functionalising, and each microcarrier of one of at least two sets has identical functionalisation, wherein the reaction space is a microchannel. The microcarriers (2) are shaped in relation to the microchannel (1) section which provides comprising two any microcarriers (2) arranged side by side out of contact with each other and with a perimeter of the microchannel (1) along the whole length of the microchannel (1). The device comprises the microcarrier (2) limit stop (4) longwise the microchannel (1), while fluids can still flow, and a code of the microcarriers is indicative of its functionalisation. The group of inventions also refers to a method for performing a multiplex analysis and the multiplex analysis microcircuit.
EFFECT: group of inventions provides accelerated mass transfer, a decreased number of samples, simplifies preparing and performing the analysis and facilitates biological response readouts.
