Disclosed are a system for pretreatment of sample and a method for controlling the same. The sample pretreatment system and the control method therefor according to the present invention can minimize the errors that may occur when the operator manually proceeds, and ensure accuracy and uniformity in the pretreatment and test results of the sample. Accordingly, all the process of mixing, discharging of the sample, and loading of a diagnosis cartridge can be performed automatically and easily, thereby, enhancing the convenience of the operation and providing a user-friendly experimental environment. n In addition, it is intended to maintain and control the pressure in the chamber uniformly so as to prevent the outpouring of the sample even in sudden changes of the pressure in the chamber. Also, it is intended to heat the sample to the desired temperature within a short time to increase the mixing and reaction efficiency of the sample by increasing the heat transfer power for the sample in the chamber. n In addition, the mixing effect of the sample can be increased, and the mechanical driving can be minimized by using the magnetic force, thereby enabling to discharge a fixed amount after the sample pretreatment. |
