摘要： An analysis apparatus (1) includes a housing unit (10) that houses a biological sample (S), a staining dispenser unit (20) that fluorescently stains the biological sample (S), an image acquisition unit (30) that acquires an image of the biological sample (S), a washer unit (40) that destains the biological sample (S), a drive unit (50), and a control unit (90) that analyzes the image and controls the drive unit (50). The control unit (90) performs adjustments so that the staining dispenser unit (20) and the housing unit (10) satisfy a first position condition, performs adjustments so that the image acquisition unit (30) and the housing unit (10) satisfy a second position condition, and performs adjustments so that the washer unit (40) and the housing unit (10) satisfy a third position condition. The analysis apparatus (1) maximizes the actual photography range of information related to the biological sample. The analysis apparatus (1) can also minimize variation in the time required for processes and can achieve high-quality analysis.
