1. A system for controlling a chemical environmental condition at an affinity based test site comprising:
- a substrate including at least one test site;
at least one activatable stimulant on the substrate and configured for use at the at least one test site; and
at least one actuator positioned to actuate at least one of the at least one activatable stimulant at the at least one test site such that chemical conditions at the at least one test site are altered thereby modifying an affinity between a capture molecule at the test site and a molecule of interest.

Abstract
A system and method of indirectly modifying an environmental condition at a test site in one embodiment includes providing a test site on a substrate, providing a first activatable stimulant at the test site, providing an actuator configured to activate the first activatable stimulant at the test site, controlling the actuator to activate the first activatable stimulant, and modifying the local chemical environment at the test site with the first activated stimulant.
