<p>Realized is an automatic analyzer that allows appropriate setting of analytical parameters which incorporate batch-to-batch variations in characteristics of reagents. The analytical parameters 35, consisting of fixed parameters 37 and variable parameters 38, are stored into a storage unit of the automatic analyzer. The fixed parameters 37 include a reagent-dispensing quantity, a sample-dispensing quantity, measuring wavelength, and the like, each of which becomes a pivot for measurement of a sample, and parameters to be used are selected from an item code and bottle code assigned to a reagent bottle 36. The variable parameters 38 include a linearity check value, a prozone check value, reaction limit absorbance, technical limits, first standard solution absorbance, variation allowable absorbance, and the like, each of which is associated with sample-measurement result checks. The variable parameters 38 have a plurality of versions, and the automatic analyzer has a control unit, which reads bar code information from the reagent bottle and adopts variable parameters of a corresponding version with the item code, the bottle code, and batch information relating to the reagent, as a key.</p> |
