An operation portion reads an analyzing time and an analyzing flow rate from a storing portion for a next analysis to calculate a liquid delivery quantity per analysis for the next analysis, and transmits the liquid delivery quantity per analysis to a comparison portion. Another object of this invention is to allow the user intuitively to recognize the setup states of links, since link regions have different display patterns in correspondence with the numbers of link destinations upon displaying the link regions. Also provided are methods of modulating a biological activity of a subject polypeptide and methods of treating disease conditions associated therewith, particularly by administering modulators of the subject polypeptides. The bound probes can be identified, for example, by using an array of hybridization probes, which leads to the determination of the cell type of the cell sample based on the correlation between the identified DNA probes and their corresponding transcription factors.
