Abstract: Provided is a temperature control system applied to an apparatus for analyzing a sample using a pipette nozzle and a reaction container, including a pipette tip temperature controller that heats a pipette tip which is fitted on the pipette nozzle and aspirates or discharges liquid and a reaction container temperature controller that heats the reaction container. The pipette tip temperature controller heats, in a concentrated manner, at least a distal end portion of the pipette tip of the pipette nozzle located at a predetermined heating position with hot air emitted from a heat source and is configured such that a distal end is capable of arriving at the reaction container by lowering the pipette nozzle from the heating position.

Abstract: A portable analyzer is disclosed. The analyzer comprises in combination a housing, an optical system comprising a light source, a detector, and one or more means for activating the optical system in generating a signal in response to a test element, means for manually moving the test element from a first position to a second position corresponding to a point of initiation of an operative condition of the optical system, means biasing the moving means toward said first position for controlling movement of the test element from the second position to the first position, means cooperative with said optical system, for processing the signal, and means, cooperative with the means for processing the signal, for displaying the processed signal.
