This “multiple column” played a critical role in the experiments developed by Morten Meldal in click chemistry, which involves joining molecules. Meldal invented the multiple column to mix different substances in serial experiments. Small test tubes are placed over the wells of the multiple column. When turned upside down, the contents of the wells empty into the test tubes. The contents can then be mixed and split. This is the first multiple column, which Meldal made in a neighbour’s garage in 1987. The multiple column has since been refined.
Morten Meldal donated the multiple column to the Nobel Prize Museum in 2022. - Pristagare
