1. A device for treating nucleic acids in a sample solution, said device comprising:
- a first reaction chamber for separating nucleic acids from other sample components in the sample solution;
a second reaction chamber for the amplification of purified nucleic acids which have been conveyed to the second reaction chamber by means of a transport path.a transport path connecting said first reaction chamber to the second reaction chamber;
a controlling means connected to the transport path for controlling liquid flow through the transport path into the second reaction chamber wherein said controlling means allows nucleic acids separated from other sample components in the sample solution to be transported into the second reaction chamber and prevents liquid containing said other sample components from being transported into the second reaction chamber thereby conveying purified nucleic acids to said second reaction chamber.
