Disclosed is a chemical reaction cartridge including an elastic body with which at least a portion of the chemical reaction cartridge is formed and a plurality of chambers and a flow path to connect the plurality of chambers, which contain solution inside, and the solution is moved or blocked in the chambers and the flow path by applying external force to the elastic body from outside, the elastic body is structured in at least two elastic body layers which are layered vertically and the plurality of chambers and the flow path are provided between an upper elastic body layer and a lower elastic body layer, and the elastic body is attached to a surface of a substrate made of hard material.

Chemical reaction cartridge and method for using

Disclosed is a chemical reaction cartridge including a substrate which is a rigid body and an elastic body, and a flow path and two or more chambers connected by the flow path are formed inside the cartridge, the cartridge is structured so as to move or block a fluid substance in the flow path or the chamber by partially sealing the flow path, the chamber or the both of the flow path and the chamber by applying external force to the elastic body from outside, and the substrate includes convex portions which protrude further than the elastic body at a surface of the substrate, on which the elastic body is formed.
