Abstract
A chemical analytic apparatus of the present invention is the one which proposes that a miniaturization, a making low-cost and portability are possible and also the operation of each process of separation, concentration and dilution of specimen is possible, and which includes: an introduction means (S1) that introduces a droplet to which magnetic ultrafine particles are mixed into another liquid that differs from the droplet while maintaining a single droplet; a conveyance means by which the droplet that includes the magnetic particles is conveyed in another liquid of the introduction means by applying magnetic field externally to the magnetic ultrafine particles; and processing means (S2 to S6) by which operations for processing of chemical analysis are performed one by one in the process in which the droplet to which the magnetic ultrafine particles are mixed is conveyed by the conveyance means

17. A chemical analytic apparatus which performs various kinds of processing for analyzing a very small amount of droplet chemically, including:
-
in a condition where magnetic ultrafine particles are mixed to a droplet, a conveyance means by which the droplet to which said magnetic ultrafine particles were mixed is conveyed in another liquid, for processing of chemical analysis, by applying magnetic field to said magnetic ultrafine particles; and a processing means by which operations for processing of chemical analysis are performed one by one in the process in which the droplet to which said magnetic ultrafine particles were mixed is conveyed by said conveyance means, wherein plural kinds of the droplets to which said magnetic ultrafine particles are mixed and of only the droplets are provided, and said processing means includes small compartments separated by plural bulkheads, and said plural kinds of droplets to which said magnetic ultrafine particles were mixed or only the droplets are arranges in each said small compartment, and an droplet to which said magnetic ultrafine particles are mixed and which is arranged in an optional small compartment is conveyed by said conveyance means, by passing through each bulkhead provided in each said small compartment, and a chemical reactive operation itself or part of the operation is performed by uniting it with the other droplet out of said plural kinds arranged in the other small compartments. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
