摘要

An analysis apparatus S comprises a first analysis unit A1 which collects samples by utilizing a first nozzle 4A to analyze the sample, a second analysis unit A2 which collects samples by utilizing a second nozzle 4B to analyze the sample, and a transport apparatus 2 which transports a plurality of sample vessels 30 along a predetermined transport route 29. When a predetermined waiting state is provided such that the transport of the plurality of sample vessels 30 is interrupted or stopped, then the sample collecting position is changed for at least one of the first and second nozzles 4A, 4B, and the samples B are collected from the plurality of sample vessels 30 by means of the nozzle having the changed position. Accordingly, it is possible to enhance the efficiency of the analysis process performed by the analysis apparatus S, while suppressing the transport apparatus 2 from being large-sized and suppressing the structure from being complicated.
