Analyzing tool with exhaust port
First Claim
1. A vented analyzing tool, comprising a flow path provided on a substrate so as to move a specimen in a specific direction;
- the flow path having a predetermined dimension in a widthwise direction orthogonal to the specific direction when viewed thicknesswise of the substrate, and the analyzing tool further including a discharge port through which gas inside the flow path is vented;
wherein an edge of the discharge port on an upstream side in the moving direction of the specimen includes a rectilinear portion extending in the widthwise or generally widthwise direction.

Abstract
The invention provides a vented analyzing tool including a flow path provided on a substrate so as to move a specimen in a specific direction. The flow path has a predetermined dimension in a widthwise direction orthogonal to the specific direction when viewed thicknesswise of the substrate. The analyzing tool further includes a discharge port through which gas inside the flow path is vented. An edge of the discharge port on an upstream side in the moving direction of the specimen includes a rectilinear portion extending in the widthwise or generally widthwise direction. The flow path is constituted so as to cause a central portion of the specimen in the widthwise direction to move faster than the remaining portion thereof.
