The purpose of the present invention is to efficiently dispense cells while reducing the risk of incorporating bacteria, etc. A cell dispensing device 1 includes: a first tube 23a which connects a container 21 and a dispensing container 22; a syringe pump 24 attached to a second tube 23b connected to a branching portion 31 formed on the first tube 23a; and a buffer tank 25 provided between the syringe pump 24 and the branching portion 31. In addition, a cell suspension contained in the container 21 is temporarily stored in the buffer tank 25 by means of the syringe pump 24, and the cell suspension stored in the buffer tank 25 is delivered to the dispensing container 22.
