Automatic analysis device

Abstract

Provided is an automatic analysis device having an incubation function. An example of the automatic analysis device includes: a reaction vessel storage section where a reaction vessel storage container that stores reaction vessels is installed; and a dispensing mechanism that dispenses specimens or reagents into a reaction vessel which was removed from the reaction vessel storage container. The reaction vessel storage section has a temperature-controlled area where at least a portion of the storage section is adjusted to a prescribed temperature. The reaction vessel into which a specimen or a reagent is dispensed by the dispensing mechanism is placed in a reaction vessel storage container installed in the temperature-controlled area for a prescribed period.
