<p>Provided are a mechanism and method for efficiently and easily stirring a reaction container (cell). A stirring mechanism having: a reaction table (18) for holding a cell (10) formed with an engagement hole (10E) on the bottom; a pin (180) disposed below the reaction table (18); an elevating means for bringing the pin (180) into and out of the engagement hole (10E) of the cell (10) protruding downward from the reaction table (18); and a rotating means for rotating the pin (180) about the axial line of the cell (10). A method for stirring the cell (10), the method involving: a cell holding step for holding, on the reaction table (18), the cell (10) formed with the engagement hole (10E) on the bottom; a pin insertion step for bringing the pin (180) disposed below the reaction table (18) into and out of the engagement hole (10E) of the cell (10) protruding downward from the reaction table (18); and a pin rotation step for rotating the pin (180) about the axial line of the cell (10).</p> |
