PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a microarray manufacturing apparatus capable of efficiently drying a head. SOLUTION: The microarray manufacturing apparatus is provided with a solution storage part 74 for storing a solution containing a living organism sample, a work bench 4, capable of arranging a plurality of substrates 3, the head 51 for taking in and holding the solution from the solution storage part 74 and forming spots of the solution on the substrates 3, cleaning and drying execution parts 71-73 for cleaning the head 51, etc., and transfer means 6 and 75 for transferring the head 51. The drying part 73 comprises a drying chamber 111 in which the head 51 is inserted. Both walls 111a and 111a, of the drying chamber 111 mutually facing, are provided with a nozzle 112 for jetting gas, such as air at an angle with respect to a wall surface. An exhaust vent 116 is provided for the wall on the downstream side of a flow, which intersects both walls 111a and 111a.
