1. A device for measuring chemiluminescence, comprising:
a vessel group at least having one or more liquid reception parts and one or more reaction vessels; a nozzle head having a suctioning and discharging mechanism for carrying out suctioning and discharging of gas, one or more nozzles, which are in communication with the suctioning and discharging mechanism, and to a front end of which a dispensing tip is attachable, and a magnetic force means capable of causing a magnetic field inside the attached dispensing tip; a nozzle moving mechanism capable of moving the nozzle relative to the vessel group; a linkage part provided to the nozzle head, linkable to the reaction vessel through an opening thereof and capable of forming a confined space shielded from external light by means of linkage with the reaction vessel; a linkage part moving mechanism capable of moving the linkage part relative to the reaction vessel; a photometer; a reagent injection flow channel capable of injecting a reagent for chemiluminescence for producing chemiluminescence, which is provided to the linkage part, and a front end of which is located in the reaction vessel by means of the linkage of the linkage part to the reaction vessel; and a shutter for bringing into a light guiding state between inside the reaction vessel and the photometer in relation to the linkage of the linkage part to the reaction vessel and bringing into a light shielding state between inside the reaction vessel and the photometer after the linkage, before release of the linkage, and after a predetermined measuring time depending on one or more factors selected from the group consisting of sensitivity of the photometer, kind of a substance for chemiluminescence, lifetime of the chemiluminescence and amount of the substance for chemiluminescence passes from injection of the reagent for chemiluminescence.
