    摘要: Piezoelectric elements are attached to both sides of a flexible metal thin plate, thus forming a bimorph-type piezoelectric vibrator. A portion of the metal thin plate is extended to form a stirring blade. A suitable weight is attached to a part of the metal plate such that the amplitude of the blade is made greater than the amplitude of the vibrator itself. The voltage to be applied to the vibrator and the frequency are adjusted, and the vibrator is vibrated in a second-order mode. Thereby, the entire solution is moved simultaneously, vertical motion is caused, and the stirring efficiency is enhanced.

A plurality of optical fibers are arranged along the longitudinal direction of the column, and the luminescence in the column is introduced to a photodiode array through the fibers. The distribution of the luminescent intensity along the longitudinal direction of the column is detected by the photodiode array. Thus, the rate of quantity increase of the product produced by the enzyme reaction can be measured while the solution is flowing through the column, thereby producing the enzyme activity by the end assay and the rate assay.
