Disclosed is a liquid sending method for sending liquid to a sample processing chip having a flow path formed therein, the method including: measuring a flow of a second liquid which is different from a first liquid which is introduced into the flow path in the sample processing chip; controlling the flow of the second liquid on the basis of the measured flow; and introducing the first liquid into the flow path in the sample processing chip by means of the second liquid of which flow is controlled.

Liquid sending method and liquid sending apparatus

This specimen treatment chip includes: a first fluid module having a first flow channel for performing a first treatment step on an object component in a specimen; a second fluid module having a second flow channel for performing a second treatment step on the object component subjected to the first treatment step; a substrate; and a connection flow channel for connecting the first fluid module and the second fluid module disposed on the substrate.

Specimen treatment chip, specimen treatment apparatus, and specimen treatment method

Disclosed is a method of processing a specimen in which a target component in a specimen is processed using a specimen processing chip provided with a flow-path, the method including: introducing a fluid into a flow-path to form an interface that divides the fluid from a process liquid used for the processing of the target component with a rim of the interface on an inner wall of the flow-path, the process liquid containing particles including the target component; and moving the formed interface along the flow-path with the rim of the interface on the inner wall so as to force out the particles retained in the process liquid by the fluid.
