Abstract
Technologies in mechanical engineering necessary for a development of clinical automatic analyzers are reported. Since the automatic analyzers, which have been indispensable for the current medical treatments, have the purpose of developments which requires smaller sample consumption, and higher accuracy and higher speed analysis, the roll of mechanical engineering has become important. Moreover, the developments of the miniaturized analyzers have been accelerated, because DNA diagnostics will be practically utilized in the near future. The extensive and urgent studies of mechanical engineering in micro scales are desired.
