Abstract
A flow cell includes a cell into which a liquid to be measured is introduced and is arranged so that a measurement light to be used for measuring an optical characteristic of the liquid enters one side of the cell and exits from the other side of the cell, an inlet for leading the liquid to flow into the cell, and an outlet for leading the liquid in the cell to flow out from the cell. The inlet and the outlet are provided to form an interface between a liquid flowing into the cell through the inlet and a liquid with which the cell has been already filled at two places on an optical path of the measurement light passing through the cell.

A flow cell comprising:
- a cell into which a liquid to be measured is introduced and is arranged so that a measurement light to be used for measuring an optical characteristic of the liquid enters one side of the cell and exits from the other side of the cell;
- an inlet for leading the liquid to flow into the cell;
- and
- an outlet for leading the liquid in the cell to flow out from the cell, wherein
- the inlet and the outlet are provided to form an interface between the liquid flowing into the cell through the inlet and another liquid with which the cell has been already filled at two places on an optical path of the measurement light passing through the cell, a flowing direction of the liquid in the cell being substantially parallel to the optical path of the measurement light passing through the cell.
