A plurality of measuring modules are arranged on a table of a reaction part. The measuring module has one removable cell, and is provided with light sources and photodetectors. In proximity to the reaction part is a cell transfer part for mounting and dismounting the cell on and from the measuring module, a sampling probe for dispensing a sample into the cell, and a reagent probe for dispensing a prescribed reagent into the cell in response to a measurement item. A time from supply of each cell or dispensing of each sample to or in the reaction part to dispensing of a first reagent is controlled to be constant with no regard to the measurement items.
