Abstract
A sample identification/sorting apparatus includes a sample storage portion that stores samples dispersed in a liquid, a flow cell having a flow path through which the liquid flows, and a sorting nozzle that has a flow path communicating with the flow path of the flow cell and dispenses a sorting solution including the sample, which is a target sample, to a culture plate. A difference between a flow direction of the liquid at an outlet of the sample storage portion and a flow direction of the liquid at a leading end of the sorting nozzle is less than 90 degrees.
