Abstract

See full text

A fecal analyzing apparatus includes an extraction/dilution section (43) for extracting a fecal suspension from a feces sampling container (1). The fecal suspension is formed by dispersing feces in a feces-dissolving liquid in the feces sampling container (1), and mixing a diluting solution having a different concentration than the feces-dissolving liquid, with respect to a specific pigment, into the extracted fecal suspension in a predetermined amount. An optical-absorbance measurement section (61) detects the concentration of the specific pigment to be changed in response to the addition of the diluting solution, and a control device (66) determines the adequacy of the extraction amount of the fecal suspension in accordance with the detected concentration of the specific pigment. The adequacy of the extraction amount of the fecal suspension can be determined to provide an adequate assay result.
