Abstract: Light emitted from a light casting unit 1 including an LED as its light source is cast into a sample cell 2, and a photodetector 3 is placed at a position where the resultant passing light can be detected. The LED is driven to blink, and a data extracting section 71 extracts data obtained in a period in which the LED is turned on, as data (absorbance data) in which absorption of light by the sample solution is reflected. Moreover, in the case where a fluorescent component is contained in the sample solution, fluorescent light is emitted by the cast light serving as excitation light. Even after the excitation light ceases, the emission of the fluorescent light continues for a short time, and hence the data extracting section 71 extracts data obtained immediately after the LED is turned off, as data (fluorescence data) in which the fluorescent light is reflected.
