Problems solved by technology

At this time, since the high-temperature oil rises and the low-temperature oil falls, convection occurs in the oil in the container, the temperature of the oil at both ends of the container fluctuates, and the nucleic acid amplification reaction becomes unstable.

Abstract

The invention provides a nucleic acid amplification reaction apparatus and a control method therefor. The nucleic acid amplification reaction apparatus includes a first heating section configured to heat a first region of a nucleic acid amplification reaction container having a longitudinal direction and filled with reaction liquid and liquid that has specific gravity smaller than the specific gravity of the reaction liquid and does not mix with the reaction liquid and a second heating section configured to heat a second region of the nucleic acid amplification reaction container to temperature higher than the temperature of the first heating section, a first arrangement is an arrangement in which the first region is below the second region in a direction in which the gravity acts and a second arrangement is an arrangement in which the second region is below the first region in the direction in which the gravity acts. A third arrangement is an arrangement in which an axis in the longitudinal direction of the nucleic acid amplification reaction container is horizontal or an arrangement in which the axis inclines with respect to the vertical line and the second region is below the first region in the direction in which the gravity acts. A driving mechanism is controlled to switch the first arrangement, the second arrangement, and the third arrangement.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a nucleic acid amplification reaction device and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] As a method for amplifying nucleic acid at a high speed, a method is known in which oil and a nucleic acid amplification reaction solution that is not mixed with the oil and has a different specific gravity are put into a nucleic acid amplification reaction container, one end of the container is maintained at a high temperature, and the other end is kept at a high temperature. One end is maintained at a low temperature, and the container is rotated to alternately switch between a state in which the reaction solution is placed in high-temperature oil with one end of the nucleic acid amplification reaction container vertically downward, and a state where the other end of the nucleic acid amplification reaction container The nucleic acid amplification reaction solution was thermally cycled by placing the reaction solution in lo...
