Abstract: Device and method for processing biological, biochemical or chemical samples are provided wherein a first multiwell plate is stacked atop a second multiwell plate. The first multiwell plate has x wells arranged in a regular array, each capable of receiving a separate sample. Each well of the x wells has an outlet at a lower surface of the first plate. The second multiwell plate has y wells arranged in a regular array, each well of the y wells being capable of receiving a separate sample, and wherein y>x. The outlets at the lower surface of the first multiwell plate are arrayed to register with corresponding inlets of a subset of the y wells of the second multiwell plate when the first plate is stacked atop the second plate. A mechanism for aligning the first plate to the second plate is provided, as well as transfer indicia for tracking transfer of sample from the first plate to the second plate.
