Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide an optical analysis method and an optical analysis system capable of accurately performing an optical analysis by using transmitted light even though a sample contains a turbid substance. The optical analysis method of the present disclosure is an optical analysis method for irradiating a sample s containing a turbid substance in a cell 11 with light and performing optical analysis on the sample s by using transmitted light of the light. The optical analysis method includes: exciting the sample s in the cell 11 by irradiation with ultrasonic waves while adjusting a frequency of the ultrasonic waves such that an intensity of the transmitted light is maximized, and then performing the optical analysis in a state where the sample s is irradiated with ultrasonic waves of this adjusted frequency.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to realize an optical analysis system that enables long-term analysis by reducing the amount of liquid used for analysis. The optical analysis system includes: a first flow channel for transporting a liquid in a container; a branching medium for alternately outputting the liquid and the gas in the first flow channel; a third flow channel for transporting the liquid and the gas flowing out from the branching medium; an analysis cell into which the liquid and the gas in the third flow channel flow; a fourth flow channel that is connected to the analysis cell to discharge the liquid and the gas after passing through the analysis cell; a pump for transporting the liquid and the gas; and a control device. Then, the control device sets a reference liquid amount that is a reference required for analysis, and controls the branching medium and the pump to make the liquid and the gas alternately flow into the third flow channel. The amount of gas flowing into the third flow channel is made larger than the amount of liquid.
