    摘要: The present invention enables automatic detection of failure in a plunger in a syringe pump unit by an automated analysis device, which includes a sample dispensing mechanism; a reagent dispensing mechanism; and a control unit for controlling operation of the sample dispensing mechanism and the reagent dispensing mechanism and analyzing the sample. The sample dispensing mechanism and the reagent dispensing mechanism each have a plunger for suctioning in and expelling liquid, and a plunger drive unit for driving the plunger. The control unit controls operation with the plunger drive unit of the reagent dispensing mechanism so that the plunger moves reciprocally by a backlash distance a predetermined number of times. Failure of the plunger is detected by detecting, using the liquid level sensing function, the amount of liquid discharged into the liquid storage container.
