Abstract: To provide a microchip that is easily handled. Provided is a microchip having a plate shape and including: a sample liquid inlet into which a sample liquid is introduced; a main flow path through which the sample liquid introduced from the sample liquid inlet flows; and a sorting flow path into which a target sample is sorted from the sample liquid, in which the sample liquid inlet and a terminal end of the sorting flow path are formed on a same side surface. Furthermore, a sample sorting kit including the microchip is also provided. Moreover, a microparticle sorting device on which the microchip is mounted is also provided.

Abstract: A chip fixing device includes a mounting portion on which a channel chip is mounted and a fixing unit for fixing the channel chip mounted on the mounting portion. The channel chip includes a channel through which a liquid containing a particle flows and a pressure changing unit for introducing the particle of interest from the channel. The mounting portion includes a substrate on which the channel chip is set. The fixing unit includes a fixing member for pressing the channel chip against the substrate, a piezoelectric element for actuating the pressure changing unit, and a holding member configured to hold the piezoelectric element and movable in a direction in which the holding member approaches and separates from the pressure changing unit. The fixing member includes an elastically deformable portion for fixing the holding member to the fixing member by deforming elastically when pressing the channel chip against the substrate.

Abstract: There is provided a content presentation system, a content presentation device, and a wind presenting device which are suitable for content presentation by air blast. The content presentation system includes a control unit and a wind presenting device. The control unit generates a wind presentation drive signal on the basis of a predetermined trigger included in content. The wind presenting device includes a housing including an opening formed therein, a diaphragm supported by the housing, and a diaphragm drive mechanism that drives the diaphragm on the basis of the wind presentation drive signal, reduces a volume of a space formed by the housing and the diaphragm, and causes air in the space to blast from the opening.
