Detection Device and Biological-Sample Analysis Device

Abstract

A detection device configured to detect each color of a plurality of components of a biological-sample is provided. The detection device executes the detection process with respect to the container which stores the sample containing the first and the second components. The detection device includes an image pickup device for picking up an image of the container, a background section serving as background of the image pickup section, and a detection section for detecting color of the first component of the sample. The container is disposed between the image pickup section and the background section. The detection section is configured to identify a first region of the first component having the label attached to the container as background, and a second region of the first component having the background section as background so as to detect color information on the first component from at least one region of the first and the second regions.
