Abstract: The present invention provides a chip for analysis of a target substance that is compact and allows analysis of a target substance with less time and effort. The chip for analysis of a target substance includes a first flexible substrate 1, a second flexible substrate 2, and a third substrate 3. A flow channel-forming non-bonded area 11 is formed on a bonding surface of the first flexible substrate 1 and the second flexible substrate 2 in a band-like manner and an extraction chamber-forming non-bonded area 5 having a wider band width than the flow channel-forming non-bonded area 11 is formed at a part of the flow channel-forming non-bonded area 11.

Abstract: An electrophoresis apparatus includes a membrane heater and controller. The membrane heater is supplied with power from a power supply and has a self-temperature control function. At the time of electrophoresis using a capillary extending inside of a microchip in a first direction, the controller controls supply of power from the power supply to the membrane heater arranged so as to supply heat to a capillary to keep the capillary at an even temperature.

Abstract: A microchip comprises a PCR section, a denaturing section, and an electrophoresis section. In the PCR section, a desired region in DNA is amplified. In the denaturing section, PCR amplicon of double-strand DNA is denatured into single-strand DNA. In the electrophoresis section, the PCR amplicon is separated based on the length of sequence.

Abstract: Disclosed is a fluidic chip or the like comprising a structure that does not leak a fluid to the exterior. This fluidic chip has at least two elastic members layered in an intermediate layer provided between a top substrate and a bottom substrate. An attached region, in which the elastic members are mutually attached, and a first non-attached region, in which the elastic members are not attached, are provided between the elastic member layers, and a recess in which a fluid can be stored is formed in the top substrate. In addition, the fluidic chip is provided with a through-hole that communicates between the bottom of the recess and one elastic member, of the at least two elastic members, that is attached to the top substrate side. A channel for the fluid is formed by mutual separation of the layers that form the first non-attached region in accordance with the pressurization by the fluid. The fluid that passes through the region is stored in the recess via the through-hole.
