摘要:
A sample liquid analytical chip that whilst being of simple structure, has a reaction region and a detection region isolated from each other and further has liquid feed control means for a sample liquid, thereby realizing speedy reliable analysis. The sample liquid analytical chip comprises a tubular sample liquid transfer channel with its both ends open, a reaction reagent layer disposed on the internal wall surface of the sample liquid transfer channel and a detection region for detecting any physical or chemical change of the sample liquid. In the sample liquid analytical chip, the sample liquid transfer channel at an area of its wall surface is provided an opening and a lid fitted to the opening. Portion of the lid forms a hinge in cooperation with the wall surface.

This invention provides an apparatus for determining a biologically specifically reactive substance using the acceleration of a biologically specific reaction by pearl chaining of carrier particles. The apparatus can suppress the generation of heat caused by the pearl chaining to suppress the vaporization of a sample solution. The apparatus comprises a substrate comprising a pair of electrodes and a reaction field disposed between the pair of electrodes, voltage applying means for applying an alternating voltage to the pair of electrodes, and carrier particles which are disposed in the reaction field and undergo pearl chaining upon exposure of an alternating electric field applied to the reaction field by the alternating voltage. The apparatus is characterized in that the voltage applying means applies two or more alternating voltages different from each other in amplitude.

A liquid delivery apparatus 1 has a rotary substrate 2. The substrate 2 formed with a fluid passage 8A for communicating a supply chamber 6A and target chamber 7A. An inlet end portion 13 at which the fluid passage 8A is connected to the chamber 6A extends in a clockwise direction R1 of rotational directions of the substrate 2. The inlet end portion 13 holds a liquid 9 in the chamber 6A by a capillary force. The rotation drive unit 4 rotates the substrate 2 so that an inertial force exceeding the capillary force and directed to the clockwise direction R1 acts on the liquid 9 in the inlet end portion 13. Delivery behavior control of microfluid with a high degree of flexibility can be achieved.

The present invention provides a blood processing apparatus that can introduce a metered quantity of a blood sample into a chamber and does not require an opening linked to the chamber to be closed after the introduction of the blood sample. An introducing chamber, an injection port, and an air port are formed in a rotatable platform of a blood processing apparatus. The injection port links the introducing chamber with the outside of the rotatable platform. A blood sample is introduced from the injection port into the introducing chamber. A blood coagulant is held on the port wall surface of the air port and/or around a portion of the surface of the rotatable platform where the air port is open.

The present invention provides a kit employed for polymerase chain reaction. The kit has a cavity and a flow channel on a substrate. The flow channel is separated from the cavity by at least a barrier formed along the cavity. Such a structure allows the cavity to be filled with a sample solution even in minute quantities. At the same time, the structure can provide a sample solution with a rapid temperature-control. The structure can therefore contribute to accelerated polymerase chain reaction.
