The present invention relates to an analytical tool pack () including an analytical tool () accommodated in one or between a plurality of sealing sheets (). The analytical tool pack () includes a stopper portion () for holding the analytical tool () with the analytical tool () caused to project from the sealing sheets (). Preferably, the analytical tool pack () further comprises a base film () bonded to the sealing sheets (). For example, the stopper portion () comprises the bonded portion of the sealing sheets () and the base film (). The present invention further relates to an analyzer which uses the analytical tool pack (). The analyzer comprises an opening mechanism for making a cut () in the analytical tool pack (), and a pushing mechanism for moving the analytical tool () relative to the sealing sheets () to cause the analytical tool () to project through the cut ().

The present invention relates to an analytical device (X) including a mounting portion () for mounting an analytical tool () capable of outputting information for computation, a computation unit for conducting computation for analyzing a sample based on the information for computation, and a temperature detection unit () for outputting the temperature information. The temperature detection unit () is disposed in the mounting portion (). The analytical device (X) preferably further includes a temperature correction unit for correcting the computation results obtained in the computation unit, based on the temperature information. The temperature detection unit () includes, for example, a contact type temperature sensor (A). In this case, the contact type temperature detection unit () may include a thermally conductive portion (B) having a contact surface () to be brought into contact with the temperature sensor (A) and the analytical tool ().
