Abstract: There is a phenomenon where a noise in a spike shape caused by, for example, impurities and a noise peak having a spectrum different from a wavelength spectrum of a labeled fluorescent substance are detected during a capillary electrophoresis. Therefore, the disclosure provides a technique to identify an intensity of the labeled fluorescent substance itself without an effect by a noise fluorescence peak caused by impurities. In the disclosure, a fluorescence intensity property (a fluorescence profile of a noise) common to the noise peaks is set, the noise peak is handled as a fluorescent substance different from the labeled fluorescent substance, and the fluorescent substance and the noise are separated by color converting with the labeled fluorescent substance+the noise fluorescent substance (see FIG. 5).
