Abstract
A temperature controlling unit (X) includes a holder () for a liquid receiver (), a heating block () for heating the liquid in the liquid receiver (), and a cooling block () for cooling the liquid in the liquid receiver (). The holder () maintains a first temperature for keeping the temperature of the liquid in the liquid receiver () at a lower target temperature. The heating block () maintains a second temperature higher than a higher target temperature above the lower target temperature. The cooling block () maintains a third temperature lower than the lower target temperature. A temperature controlling method of the present invention includes a heating step for bringing a heating block () into contact with the liquid receiver () held by the holder () and a cooling step for bringing a cooling block () into contact with the liquid receiver () held by the holder ().
