Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide an object-capturing device which accurately detects objects such as microorganisms captured at a test site. The object-capturing device of the present invention includes a capturing dish holding a carrier, which captures objects (microorganisms), on a first side of the capturing dish. The capturing dish has a through hole extending from the first side to a second side of the capturing dish. The object-capturing device is used in a way such that, after the objects are captured with the carrier directed upward, the carrier is directed downward and reagents for detecting the objects are contacted with the objects captured on the carrier through the through hole.

Abstract: Provided is a device for capturing object, wherein a carrier which captures substances to be detected and is made to be dividable into plural portions, is placed with the plural dividable portions arranged in sections. The carrier includes a count analysis carrier and an identification analysis carrier respectively arranged in sections in a first dish half and a second dish half which are obtained by dividing a capturing dish.

Abstract: A floating bacteria counting device capable of trapping floating bacteria in air continuously for a long time without decreasing trapping efficiency even if the time before a trapping carrier being replaced is prolonged and a floating bacteria counting method and a floating bacteria counting system using the floating bacteria trapping device are provided. A nozzle (16) is formed of a plurality of pinholes (16a) arranged at equal intervals. If a pitch interval between the pinholes (16a) is d, a driving mechanism (22) causes a support container (20) supporting a trapping carrier (30) to move in a horizontal direction so that the support container (20) draws a circle of less than d in diameter.

Abstract: A mechanism for preventing suction air from leaking uses a capturing carrier cartridge that includes a cartridge main body and a filter fixing ring. The cartridge main body includes a storage portion for storing a capturing carrier solution and a filter mounting portion where a filter for filtering the capturing carrier solution is disposed. The filter fixing ring covers the filter mounting portion, positions the filter, and sucks and filters the capturing carrier solution from a lower surface thereof. The mechanism includes a cartridge holder and a suction head. The cartridge holder includes an opening that includes the filter mounting portion of the capturing carrier cartridge, and a holding portion that holds the storage portion. The suction head sucks the capturing carrier solution through the lower surface of the filter fixing ring while applying pressure to press the filter fixing ring against the filter mounting portion.

Abstract: In a ceiling (12) of a room (10) of a clean room device (15), fan filter units (14) are arranged at distances, and to an open grid space where no fan filter unit (14) is provided, a breathable body (40) is provided. When clean air is sent from an over-ceiling space (16) into the room (10) by the fan filter unit (14), an air pressure in the room (10) becomes higher than that in the over-ceiling space (16), and part of the air in the room (10) flows to the over-ceiling space (16) through the breathable body (40). Consequently, it is possible to prevent an occurrence of a swirling current in an area under an open grid space in the room (10), and cleanliness in the room (10) can be raised.
