  • Patent number: 8646316
    Abstract: A slide type liquid sample quantity determiner is provided that may enable the whole of a quantity determining flow path to be surely filled with a liquid sample, and also a quantity determination time to be shortened. An upstream side capillary flow path, a quantity determining capillary flow path, and a downstream side capillary flow path are reduced in diameter in this order. When a slide body is at a liquid sample quantity determination position X, an upstream side opening of the quantity determining capillary flow path is contained in a downstream side opening of the upstream side capillary flow path, and an upstream side opening of the downstream side capillary flow path is contained in a downstream side opening of the quantity determining capillary flow path.

  • Publication number: 20110194977
    Abstract: A liquid container for analysis is provided to prevent outside liquid leakage from occurring when a needle is inserted into a seal part of a liquid container for analysis. The liquid container for analysis may contain a liquid for analysis and may include: a container main body formed having an opening part that enables the liquid for analysis to be led out; a seal part that seals the opening part; and a guide part that is provided outside the seal part, serving as a guide for inserting a liquid lead-out needle into the seal part, and upon insertion of the liquid lead-out needle into the seal part, coming into substantially liquid-tight contact with an outer circumferential surface of the liquid lead-out needle.
