Abstract
The present invention makes it possible to realize a chemical reaction cartridge, which enables prescribed protocols to be achieved easily without differences among operators. The cartridge is sealed and disposable, and has a safe structure against viruses or dangerous drugs. This cartridge is intended to be used for performing chemical reaction of samples. The cartridge comprises a container formed of a rigid substrate and an elastic body, wherein two or more chambers linked or arranged to be able to be linked through flow paths are formed in the container. The flow paths, the chambers or both are partially closed by applying an external force to the elastic body from outside the container, thereby being able to move or block fluid substance in said flow paths or chambers.
