Abstract:
1. A sample analyzer for analyzing particles contained in a sample comprising: a measuring unit, which comprises a specimen preparing unit for preparing a first measurement specimen by mixing a portion of a sample with a first reagent and preparing a second measurement specimen by mixing a portion of the sample with a second reagent, a signal output section for outputting a signal representing a characteristic of particles in each measurement specimen, and a signal adjusting section for adjusting the signal outputted from the signal output section, the measuring unit outputting a measurement data based on the signal adjusted by the signal adjusting section; a result producing unit including a storage device for storing a plurality of analysis results of a plurality of samples, the result producing unit producing a first analysis result by analyzing a first group of particles based on a first measurement data obtained from the first measurement specimen and producing a second analysis result by analyzing a second group of particles based on a second measurement data obtained from the second measurement specimen, and storing the first analysis result and the second analysis result in the storage device, wherein the result producing unit: the signal adjusting section adjusts a signal of particles in the subsequent samples outputted from the signal output section based on the adjustment value transmitted from the result producing unit.
