An embodiment provides an analyzer comprising a liquid agitation unit; an agitated liquid analysis unit; and a unit that controls the agitation unit. The agitation unit includes a vibrator of a liquid container and a detector of vibration of the container and that outputs a signal to the control unit, which responds by regulating the vibrator.
