Abstract
A biochemical analysis unit includes a substrate formed with a plurality of absorptive regions to be spaced apart from each other and capable of attenuating radiation energy and light energy, the absorptive regions being formed so that an area Smi of each absorptive region and an average area Sma of the plurality of absorptive regions meet a requirement that Smi is equal to or smaller than 0.5×Sma and is equal to or larger than 2×Sma. According to this biochemical analysis unit, it is possible to produce biochemical analysis data having excellent quantitative characteristics with high resolution by selectively labeling the absorptive regions with a radioactive labeling substance or a labeling substance which generates chemiluminescence emission when it contacts a chemiluminescent substrate, superposing a stimulable phosphor sheet formed with a stimulable phosphor layer on the biochemical analysis unit, exposing the stimulable phosphor layer to the radioactive labeling substance contained in the absorptive regions or chemiluminescence emission released from the absorptive regions to record radiation data or chemiluminescence data in the stimulable phosphor layer, stimulating the stimulable phosphor layer with a stimulating ray and detecting stimulated emission released from the stimulable phosphor layer.
