Abstract:
1. A sample analyzer comprising: a reagent storage configured to store a reagent container containing a reagent used for analyzing a sample; a reagent arrangement section arranged within the reagent storage and comprising a first reagent table and a second reagent table; a heat transfer layer arranged at a bottom of the reagent storage; a cooler arranged below the heat transfer layer and out of the reagent storage, and configured to cool the heat transfer layer; a plurality of air blowers arranged within the reagent storage between the heat transfer layer and the first and second reagent tables, and configured to blow an air towards the heat transfer layer cooled by the cooler; a liquid storing section, which is arranged on an outer side of the heat transfer layer within the reagent storage, storing a liquid such that a surface of the liquid contacts an air within the reagent storage; a liquid supply unit configured to supply the liquid into the liquid storing section; and an analyzing unit configured to analyze a measurement sample prepared by mixing the sample and the reagent.
