Abstract: A chemical analyzer has a rotatable holding disk, test cartridges disposed thereon, and a detector. The test cartridge includes a base plate having vessels and flow channels. The base plate is covered with a cover for covering the vessels and flow channels. The holding disk is rotated to generate centrifugal force, causing a fluid to be moved from one vessel at the inner peripheral side with respect to a rotation axis of the holding disk to another vessel at the outer peripheral side with respect to the rotation axis via the flow channel. In the test cartridge, at least one reagent port is formed in the base plate, and a closed vessel containing a reagent is placed in the reagent port. The closed vessel is a microcapsule, a plastic closed vessel, or a screw-in closed vessel, for example.
