Abstract
A system for capturing a biomolecule in a single cell includes: a two-dimensional array having single cell capture holes on one surface of a substrate, and biomolecule capture areas inside the substrate each comprising a biomolecule capture member for capturing a biomolecule extracted from individual cells respectively captured by the single cell capture holes; a flow channel for flowing a sample containing cells to be assayed, from a 1st direction parallel to the surface of the substrate; a structure on the surface of the substrate and opposed to the 1st direction on the downstream side of each of the single cell capture holes; a 1st application means applying a 1st flow, and a 1st control means; and a 2nd application means applying a 2nd flow orthogonal to the one surface of the substrate toward each biomolecule capture area from each corresponding single cell capture hole, and a 2nd control means.
