    摘要: The present invention provides a reciprocal-flow-type nucleic acid amplification device comprising:heaters capable of forming a denaturation temperature zone and an extension/annealing temperature zone; a fluorescence detector capable of detecting movement of a sample solution between the two temperature zones; a pair of liquid delivery mechanisms that allow the sample solution to move between the two temperature zones and that are configured to be open to atmospheric pressure when liquid delivery stops; a substrate on which the chip for nucleic acid amplification according to claim 2 can be placed; and a control mechanism that controls driving of each liquid delivery mechanism by receiving an electrical signal from the fluorescence detector relating to movement of the sample solution from the control mechanism; the device being capable of performing real-time PCR by measuring fluorescence intensity for each thermal cycle.

    摘要: An assay device allows enhancement of the liquid control performance. The assay device of the present invention includes a microflow passage 1,31,41 which allows flow of the liquid, an absorbing porous medium 2,42 disposed at a distance from one end of the microflow passage, and a separating space 3,43 disposed between the one end of the microflow passage and the absorbing porous medium. The assay device further includes two sideways ventilation passages 6,46 which are adjacent to both sides of the microflow passage, respectively in the width direction orthogonal to the flow direction, the two sideways ventilation passages 6,46 being communicated with the microflow passage to allow air circulation.

    摘要: An assay device allows reducing manufacturing variation, maintaining the measurement accuracy of the assay device at a high level, and enhancing the liquid control performance. The assay device of the present invention includes a microfluidic channel 2 allowing liquid to flow, an absorbing porous medium 3 disposed at a distance from one end 2a of the microfluidic channel 2, a separating space 4 disposed between the microfluidic channel 2 and the absorbing porous medium 3, and a housing space 5 housing the absorbing porous medium 3. The assay device further includes a lower member 20 which is an integrally molded article constituting a part of the assay device. The lower member 20 defines a lower portion 2b of the microfluidic channel 2, a lower portion 4a of the separating space 4, and a lower portion 5a of the housing space 5. The lower portions 4a, 5a of the separating space 4 and the housing space 5 are inclined downward toward one side from the other side in a flow direction. The lower member 20 supports the absorbing porous medium 3 at the lower portion 5a of the housing space 5.
