<p>In an automatic analyzer, effect is reduced or prevented of a change in temperature and volume of components making up a mechanism for dispensing a reagent and a sample or a system liquid on an amount of sample and reagent per one dispensing cycle. One or a plurality of components making up the mechanism for dispensing the reagent and the sample is mounted with a sensor for measuring a temperature of the component. The dispensing mechanism further includes a sensor for measuring a temperature of the system liquid at one or a plurality of locations. Control is thereby provided, based on temperature information provided by the temperature sensor, to vary an amount of operation of a component that varies an amount of reagent and sample to be dispensed or to make the temperature of the system liquid equal to, or close to, the temperature of the component.</p> |
