Abstract
A nucleic acid extractor reducing the possibility of cross contamination and a gene analysis apparatus having a nucleic acid amplification function and a detection function are provided. The nucleic acid extractor has a kit for nucleic acid extraction using silica-coated magnetic beads under the presence of a chaotropic agent, and includes a magnet coveraccommodating a magnetin the inside and separating the magnetand a reaction container, a wall partcovering the outside of the reaction containerin a state of accommodating at least a portion of the magnet coverin the reaction container, and a upper portioncovering a space above the reaction containerin a state of accommodating at least a portion of the magnet coverin the reaction container. Scattering of liquid and aerosol can be prevented and the possibility of cross contamination can be reduced.
