EFFICIENT DETECTION INSTRUMENT USING BIOCHEMICAL DETECTION MICRO-ARRAY

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a detection instrument which is accurate and efficient, with a small amount of liquid detection sample. PSOLUTION: A space is provided, which is formed by an upright wall (UW) on which a means for holding detection slides (SL and SLSB2/SB) in which a micro-array (Pr) of detection probes is formed. A frame member (F) is uprightly provided, which forms a detection sample accommodation space capable of accommodating, agitating, and mixing the amount of liquid detection sample (Sa) which surrounds the micro-array part of the slide accommodated in the space, near the surroundings of the micro-array part, by the press-contact with the surface of the slide. It is basically composed of plate-like members (CB and CBSB3/SB) having the dimensions so that a liquid detection sample supply hole (SH) for supplying the liquid detection sample to the detection sample accommodation space and a gas exhaust hole (HS) in supplying the liquid detection sample can be fixed to the upright wall of the accommodation container for forming the slide accommodation space formed inside the frame member.
