PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent back flow into a flow channel of waste liquid and suction of sample solution from the inside of the flow channel. SOLUTION: A buffer for measurement is injected into the flow channel 16 in performing measurement. After starting the signal measurement, analyte solution 27 is injected into the flow channel 16 by a pipette 26. The buffer for measurement is discharged from a discharge port 16b by this injection. The discharge port 16b is provided with a liquid reservoir 42d covered with a lid 43, and the discharged buffer for measurement remains in it. A suction pipe 30 connected to a suction pump 74 is arranged in the liquid reservoir 42d, and sucks the remaining buffer for measurement to prevent the back flow. A ventilation pipe 81 is arranged in the liquid reservoir 42d, and, in this suction, the outside air is taken to prevent the inside from coming into negative pressure. Thus, the analyte solution 27 in the flow channel 16 is not sucked. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
