Abstract
A reaction apparatus for a biochemical examination is provided having at least a pair of band-shaped conveying members, a portion of each of which proceeds over a predetermined distance in the same direction in a closely contacted state, and which convey a sample-supporting thin film while sandwiching it between the closely contacted portions, and a heat source which is provided in the vicinity of the closely contacted portions of the pair of band-shaped conveying members, and which maintains at a predetermined temperature the sample-supporting thin film sandwiched between the closely contacted portions. The sample-supporting thin film is conveyed from one side to the other side between the pair of band-shaped conveying members. On the other side, the sample-supporting thin film is supplied with the reagent, then caused to approach the heat source while being sandwiched between the band-shaped conveying members. By means of the heat source, the sample-supporting thin film is maintained at a predetermined temperature, whereby the reaction between the sample and the reagent is promoted.
