VARIOUS-SUBSTANCE HOLDER, VARIOUS-SUBSTANCE HOLDER TREATING APPARATUS, AND VARIOUS-SUBSTANCE HOLDER TREATING METHOD

摘要

A various-substance holder, a various-substance holder treating apparatus, and a various-substance holder treating method are provided which enable the mutual identification of particulate carriers to which various substances are or can be immobilized without the need to arrange the particulate carriers at predetermined positions or in a predetermined order, eliminating the need for time and effort to arrange the various substances at predetermined positions or in a predetermined order to allow treatments to be quickly and easily achieved. The various-substance holder has a plurality of particulate carriers or plural sets of particulate carriers to which plural types of chemical substances are or can be immobilized and a carrier holding portion holding the plurality of particulate carriers or the plural sets of particulate carriers in a substantially stationary state such that the plurality of particulate carriers or the plural sets of particulate carriers can be externally measured.
