Method of Reaction in Flow Channel of Microchip and Analysis Device
First Claim
1. A method of reaction in a flow channel of a microchip, which performs a reaction by bringing reagent in contact with reacting material by flowing the reagent into a reaction flow channel in which the reacting material which reacts with the reagent is carried on a wall surface of the reaction flow channel of the microchip, wherein the method of reaction comprises flowing the reagent such that a peripheral portion of a gas-liquid interface at a front end of the reagent moves back and forth on the wall surface of the reaction flow channel when the reaction is performed.

Abstract
In case of performing a reaction between reacting material and reagent by bringing the reagent in contact with the reacting material through flowing the reagent into a reaction flow channel in which the reaction material which reacts with the reagent is carried on a wall surface of the reaction flow channel of a microchip, the reaction is expedited efficiently by passing the reagent to the reacting material. The reagent 30a is flowed such that a peripheral portion of a gas-liquid interface at a front end of the reagent moves back and forth on the wall surface of the reaction flow channel 10 when the reaction is performed.
