1. A system for manipulating materials comprising:
- a base unit having an attachment region with a base interface array including at least one interface component therein;
an adapter configured to be removably attached to the attachment region and having an adapter-base interface array including at least one interface component disposed to mate with a corresponding interface component in the base interface array when the adapter is attached to the attachment region, a substrate attachment region, and an adapter-substrate interface array having at least one interface component therein; and
a substrate configured to be removably attached to the substrate attachment region of the adapter and having a substrate interface array including at least one interface component disposed to mate with a corresponding interface component in the adapter-substrate interface array when the substrate is attached to the substrate attachment region.

Abstract
An analytical or preparatory system comprised as a base unit, an adapter, and a substrate. The adapter is attached to an attachment region on the base unit, and the substrate is attached to an attachment region on the adapter. The adapter permits the base unit to be interfaced with a wide variety of different substrates to perform chemical and biological analytical analyses and preparatory procedures.
