Analytical device having temperature detection unit
First Claim
1. A combination of an analytical tool and a temperature detecting analytical device, the temperature detecting analytical device comprising a housing including a mounting portion for mounting the analytical tool capable of outputting information for computation, a computation unit for conducting computation for analyzing a sample based on said information for computation, and a temperature detection unit for outputting temperature information,wherein said mounting portion comprises a table having a projecting portion protruding from said housing;
- wherein said analytical tool comprises a substrate separate from said mounting portion and a reagent portion formed on said substrate, said reagent portion being located above said projecting portion of said table outside said housing when said analytical tool is mounted onto said mounting portion; and
wherein said temperature detection unit is located on said projecting portion of said table directly below and in vertical alignment with said reagent portion when said analytical tool is mounted on said mounting portion.

Abstract
The present invention relates to an analytical device (X1) including a mounting portion (10) for mounting an analytical tool (2) capable of outputting information for computation, a computation unit for conducting computation for analyzing a sample based on the information for computation, and a temperature detection unit (12) for outputting the temperature information. The temperature detection unit (12) is disposed in the mounting portion (10). The analytical device (X1) preferably further includes a temperature correction unit for correcting the computation results obtained in the computation unit, based on the temperature information. The temperature detection unit (12) includes, for example, a contact type temperature sensor (12A). In this case, the contact type temperature detection unit (12) may include a thermally conductive portion (12B) having a contact surface (12b) to be brought into contact with the temperature sensor (12A) and the analytical tool (2).
