A nucleic acid analyzer includes a nucleic acid purification kit yielding a nucleic acid solution by isolating and purifying nucleic acid from a specimen; a nucleic acid analysis chip having a rotation axis positioned at a center thereof, with reaction containers at an outer portion than the rotation axis, and feeding the acid to the containers through centrifugal force; a specimen-introducing part on which the kit is placed; an analysis chip holder at the specimen-introducing part and supporting the chip; a purification treatment unit injecting the nucleic acid solution containing the nucleic acid into the chip; a centrifugal liquid feed unit feeding the nucleic acid solution to the containers by rotating the chip about the rotation axis; an analysis unit analyzing reaction products in the containers; and a transport part transporting the specimen-introducing part to the purification treatment unit, the centrifugal liquid feed unit, and the analysis unit.
摘要:
An optical measurement apparatus using an optical fiber to measure the characteristic of an object to be measured arranged along the circumference of a circle includes a first pulley, a second pulley which is turnable on its own axis at a second angular velocity while revolving about the first pulley at a first angular velocity, and the optical fiber which is held by the second pulley and projects detection light on the object to be measured and receives reflected light from the object to be measured. The first angular velocity and the second angular velocity are the same in magnitude and opposite in the direction. Occurrence of a twist in the optical fiber is suppressed, and therefore, the optical measurement apparatus is capable of measuring the characteristics of the object to be measured with high accuracy.
