Abstract:
1. A temperature controlling assembly for a gene treating apparatus that treats a gene inside a gene sample by heating/cooling the gene sample filled in a reaction container comprising a first member arranged in an upper part and a second member arranged in a lower part, the second member having a different thermal conductivity from that of the first member, the temperature controlling assembly comprising: a first temperature controlling unit arranged in such a way to allow contact with a top face of the reaction container; a second temperature controlling unit arranged in such a way to allow contact with an undersurface of the reaction container and also arranged in such a way to be able to sandwich the reaction container between the first temperature controlling unit and the second temperature controlling unit; a pair of metallic plates arranged on surfaces where the first temperature controlling unit and the second temperature controlling unit is in contact with the reaction container; a pair of first heat conduction members arranged on surfaces of the pair of metallic plates facing the reaction container and also arranged in such a way to allow contact with the top face and the undersurface of the reaction container; a pair of second heat conduction members arranged on surfaces of the pair of first heat conduction members facing the reaction container and also arranged in such a way to allow contact with the top face and the undersurface of the reaction container; a first heat dissipation unit provided in contact with the first temperature controlling unit; and a second heat dissipation unit provided in contact with the second temperature controlling unit wherein one of the pair of second heat conduction members in a side of the undersurface of the reaction container is thicker than another of the pair of second heat conduction members in a side of the top face of the reaction container.
