A test container includes an inlet, a first storage portion, a second storage portion, a first flow channel that connects the first storage portion to the second storage portion, a first cylinder of which one end is connected to the first storage portion via a second flow channel and the other end is open to an outside, a second cylinder of which one end is connected to the second storage portion via a third flow channel and the other end is open to an outside, a first plug provided in the first cylinder, and a second plug provided in the second cylinder. An internal space including the first storage portion, the second storage portion, the first flow channel, the second flow channel, and the third flow channel is capable of being pressurized in a case where the first plug and the second plug are pressed and moved from the outside.

A fluid device composite member includes: a silicone member that includes a body part which is made of silicone and which has a flow-path-defining section for defining a flow path on one surface of the body part, and that includes barrier layer having hydrophilicity or hydrophobicity disposed in at least a portion of the flow-path-defining section; and a resin substrate disposed on another surface of the body part opposite to the one surface. This method for manufacturing the fluid device composite member includes a layered body manufacturing step in which a liquid silicone material is placed on a surface of the resin substrate, and the liquid silicone material is cured at a temperature of 100° C. or less to obtain a layered body in which a silicone cured product is bonded to the resin substrate.

A reaction processor is provided with a reaction processing vessel in which a channel is formed, a liquid feeding system, a temperature control system for providing a high temperature region and a low temperature region to the channel, and a fluorescence detector for detecting the sample passing through a fluorescence detection region of the channel, and a CPU for controlling the liquid feeding system based on a signal that is detected. A target stop position X.sup.[L].sub.0(n+1) of the sample in the low temperature region in an (n+1)th cycle is corrected from a target stop position X.sup.[L].sub.0(n) of the sample in the low temperature region in the nth cycle based on the result of stopping control on the sample in the nth cycle.

Provided is a microchip that can achieve a favorable bonding state in the bonding portion between first and second substrates even if the microchip is large in size. A microchip includes a first substrate made of a resin and a second substrate made of a resin, the first substrate and the second substrates being bonded to each other, and a channel surrounded by a bonding portion between the first substrate and the second substrate is formed by a channel forming step formed at least in the first substrate. Further, a noncontact portion is formed to surround the bonding portion, and an angle θ.sub.1 formed between a side wall surface of the channel forming step and a bonding surface continuous therewith satisfies θ.sub.1>90°.

A blood clotting time measurement cartridge includes: an inlet on one end of a measurement flow channel and through which blood is introduced; a communication opening on the other end of the measurement flow channel and through which air suction or air pressure application or the blood introduced from the inlet is performed; a moving body arranged in the measurement flow channel moves; a clotting accelerator applied on at least one of a flow channel wall surface, which defines the measurement flow channel, and the moving body; and a detection area through which light is transmitted to a predetermined part in the measurement flow channel, and where it is possible to detect with light whether there is the moving body or the blood making a reciprocating motion in the measurement flow channel in association with air suction or air pressure application or the blood from the communication opening.

This fluid handling device has a rotary member that is rotatable around the central axis. In the rotary member, a first protruding part for pressing and closing a valve of a flow channel chip and a recessed part for opening the valve without pressing the valve are disposed on the circumference of a first circle around the central axis. The rotary member further has a second protruding part for, when the recessed part is located at the valve in a state where the rotary member is rotated, pressing the valve so as not to open the valve.
