Abstract
A particle analyzer (1) includes a measurement cell (2) and a measurement section (10). The particle analyzer (1) further includes a migration section. The migration section includes magnets (3a and 3b), electrodes (4a, 4b, and 4c), a power source (5), and a laser light source (6). The migration section causes migration of particles contained in a medium loaded into the measurement cell (2) by at least two of a magnetophoresis method, a dielectrophoresis method, an electromagnetophoresis method, and a photophoresis method. The measurement section (10) performs determination of a physical quantity of the particles and determination of a migration rate of the particles.
