Abstract: A sample scraping method and a sample scraping device capable of efficiently scraping and collecting a biological tissue section without waste while suppressing contamination is provided. In a sample scraping method for scraping and collecting a biological tissue section held on a slide, the FFPE section held on the slide is heated, and the heated FFPE section is scraped by a blade such that the FFPE section that has been scraped off and remains on the blade is collected in a container.

Abstract: In a dispensing system, a body is arranged outside a specimen processing cabinet, and in a state where a hand and a dispenser are inserted into the specimen processing cabinets, a specimen accommodated in a specimen container held by the hand is dispensed into a dispensing container by the dispenser.

Abstract: In an example of an embodiment, a first sample set is prepared that includes a test sample prepared from a first subject sample and a reagent, and at least one control sample prepared from at least one of a positive control and a negative control, and a second sample set is prepared that includes a test sample prepared from a second subject sample and a reagent and does not contain at least one of the control samples contained in the first sample set. The nucleic acid amplification in the first sample set is measured in the first unit, the nucleic acid amplification in the second sample set is measured in the second unit, and the measurement result of each test sample contained in the first sample set and second sample set is analyzed based on the measurement result of the control sample contained in at least the first sample set.

Abstract: Disclosed is a specimen treatment device for treating a specimen accommodated in a reaction container, the specimen treatment device comprising: an installation unit in which the reaction container is installed; a temperature adjusting unit for warming the reaction container installed in the installation unit; and an opening/closing member which can move between a first position at which the temperature adjusting unit is uncovered and a second position at which the temperature adjusting unit is covered.

Abstract: A nozzle device which can perform accurate quantitative suction without being affected by a pressure when, for example, a nozzle (2) is inserted into a closed container (T). The nozzle device has the nozzle (2) that is inserted into the closed container (T) and that sucks a liquid in the closed container (T), an exposure to atmosphere mechanism (3) that opens the closed container (T) to the atmospheric air, and an opening/closing structure (4) that is arranged at a proximal end of the nozzle (2) and that has an internal flow channel (411) communicated with a flow channel in the nozzle (2) and an opening/closing mechanism for opening and closing the internal flow channel (411), and an opening/closing control section (5) that controls the opening/closing mechanism.
