A thin-section sample fabrication apparatus for transporting a thin section cut out from an embedding block in which a biological sample is embedded, the thin-section sample fabrication apparatus comprising: a transporting mechanism comprising an annular transport belt having a transport surface for placement of the thin section thereon, and a roller group over which the transport belt is disposed, wherein the roller group comprises a rear folding roller, and wherein the transporting mechanism is configured to move the thin section placed on the transport surface to a slide glass; a transfer liquid supply portion for supplying transfer water, wherein the transfer water is water for transferring the thin section from the transport surface onto the slide glass, wherein the transfer liquid supply portion is arranged opposite to the transport surface upstream of the rear folding roller as seen in a movement direction of the transport surface, wherein the rear folding roller is disposed immediately above a predetermined position on a placement table on which the slide glass is placed; a thin-section transfer portion of the transporting mechanism configured to maintain a slight gap between a portion of the transport surface that is guided by the rear folding roller and an upper surface of the slide glass placed on the placement table, and to transfer the thin section placed on the transport surface onto the slide glass; and a relative displacement mechanism configured to move the slide glass on the placement table forward and backward in a horizontal direction, wherein the transfer liquid supply portion is configured to form a liquid phase of a predetermined amount of the transfer water that is continuous from the transport surface to the upper surface on the slide glass. a transporting mechanism comprising an annular transport belt having a transport surface for placement of the thin section thereon, and a roller group over which the transport belt is disposed, wherein the roller group comprises a rear folding roller, and wherein the transporting mechanism is configured to move the thin section placed on the transport surface to a slide glass; a transfer liquid supply portion for supplying transfer water, wherein the transfer water is water for transferring the thin section from the transport surface onto the slide glass, wherein the transfer liquid supply portion is arranged opposite to the transport surface upstream of the rear folding roller as seen in a movement direction of the transport surface, wherein the rear folding roller is disposed immediately above a predetermined position on a placement table on which the slide glass is placed; a thin-section transfer portion of the transporting mechanism configured to maintain a slight gap between a portion of the transport surface that is guided by the rear folding roller and an upper surface of the slide glass placed on the placement table, and to transfer the thin section placed on the transport surface onto the slide glass; and a relative displacement mechanism configured to move the slide glass on the placement table forward and backward in a horizontal direction, wherein the transfer liquid supply portion is configured to form a liquid phase of a predetermined amount of the transfer water that is continuous from the transport surface to the upper surface on the slide glass.
