Claim:
1. A system for testing at least one first biological sample, the system comprising: a nucleic acid isolation/purification apparatus for: isolating and purifying a first nucleic acid (NA) by magnetically capturing the first NA contained in the first biological sample, a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing apparatus for performing a continuous random access polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing on the first reaction liquid through multiple PCR cycles consisting of denaturing, annealing, and elongating thermal cycles; wherein the PCR testing apparatus performs the continuous random access PCR testing continuously and randomly, and includes a multi-vessel thermal cycler array having a plurality of single-vessel thermal cyclers that are individually-thermally controllable; and a device for estimating a first initial NA concentration of the first biological sample.
