Zusammenfassung:A method for separating a nucleic acid from a specimen includes accommodating a specimen in an accommodation space provided in a nucleic acid-collecting member, transferring a treatment reagent to the nucleic acid-collecting member by connecting a treatment reagent-accommodating container to a treatment reagent-supplying opening of the nucleic acid-collecting member, obtaining a mixture by mixing the specimen and the treatment reagent in a mixing space formed by combining an inner container space of the treatment reagent-accommodating container and the accommodation space of the nucleic acid-collecting member, and pressure-feeding the mixture by reducing a volume of the inner container space of the treatment reagent-accommodating container and discharging the mixture from an mixture-discharging opening of the nucleic acid-collecting member via a carrier that adsorbs the nucleic acid released in the mixture while allowing the mixture to permeate therethrough.
