Abstract
The analysis apparatus includes a standby section which is provided between a dispensing operation of an analysis item B′ prior to an analysis item C and the sample analysis channel introduction. The sample analysis channel introduction is arranged prior to a data collection section of an analysis item A. The operation is started earlier but after a sample dispensing operation section of the analysis item A. A sample dispensing operation section of the analysis item C can be started earlier and the analysis time of the analysis item C can be moved to immediately after a sample analysis operation section of the analysis item B′. The analysis item A in a second cycle can be started earlier by the early start time of the analysis item C in a first cycle. A total processing time Tc can be shorter than a total processing time Tb.
