Abstract: The information collection system is provided with an information collection server, a management server, and a communication device and collects information of an analysis device. The information collection server acquires the information about the analysis device and stores it. The management server stores the user information of the owner of the analysis device. The communication device can communicate with the information collection server and transmits the information about the analysis device to the information collection server. When the first authentication information transmitted from the communication device matches the second authentication information corresponding to the communication device stored in the information collection server, the information collection server acquires and stores the information about the analysis device transmitted from the communication device.

Abstract: A system for managing modular analyzing devices 110a-c includes: a means 161 for acquiring the serial number of modules included in each analyzing device; a means 161 for acquiring information on an expendable part included in each module; a storage section 152 for storing the acquired serial number and expendable-part information in the state of being associated with a system controller to which the module corresponding to the serial number is connected; a transfer detector 164 for detecting a transfer of an operation module based on the serial numbers associated with each system controller; and an information manager 163 for changing the association of the expendable-part information in the storage section, from the state of being associated with the system controller on the giving end of the transfer, to the state of being associated with the system controller on the receiving end of the transfer, when the transfer is detected.
