Abstract
A magnetic separation device includes: a magnet provided at a position adjacent to a tubular accommodation portion extending along a first axis and having magnetization for applying magnetic field to the accommodation portion; a base configured to support the magnet; and a drive unit configured to change, when an axis orthogonal to the first axis is a second axis and an axis orthogonal to the second axis in a plane including the second axis is a third axis, a posture of the magnet between a first posture in which a direction of the magnetization faces a direction closer to the second axis than the third axis and a second posture in which the direction of the magnetization faces a direction closer to the third axis than the second axis.
