SAMPLE ANALYSIS APPARATUS AND SAMPLE ANALYSIS METHOD

Provided is a sample analysis apparatus including: a syringe pump; a channel switch valve; a mixing container; a detection unit configured to detect a concentration of a specified substance contained in a sample solution; and a control unit configured to control the syringe pump and the channel switch valve. The channel switch valve includes a sample port, a reagent port, and a detection port connected to a detection pipe on which the detection unit is arranged. The control unit controls the syringe pump and the channel switch valve to draw the reagent solution from the reagent pipe to the mixing container, draw the sample solution from the sample pipe to the mixing container, draw the reagent solution from the reagent pipe to the mixing container, and supply a mixture solution containing the sample solution and the reagent solution from the mixing container to the detection unit.
