`
`application.
`
`Listing of Claims:
`
`1.-9.
`
`(Canceled)
`
`10.
`
`(Currently amended) An analyzing device having a microchannel structure for
`
`transferring a sample liquid to a measurement spot by a centrifugal force, the analyzing
`
`device being used for reading that accesses a reaction liquid at the measurement spot,
`
`the analyzing device comprising:
`
`a separating cavity configured to separate the sample liquid into a solution
`
`component and a solid component by using the centrifugal force,
`
`a measuring passage configured to receive a portion of the solution component
`
`separated in the separating cavity and retain the portion of the solution component;
`
`a connecting passage having a first end connected to a bottom of the separating
`
`cavity, the connecting passage being configured to transfer the sample liquid of the
`
`separating cavity,
`
`an overflow cavity connected to a second end of the connecting passage, [[and]]
`
`a liquid retaining connecting passage extending from the second end of the
`
`connecting passage to which the overflow cavity is connected prefided—frem—an—eutlet—eilthe
`
`connecting—passage toward an inner periphery of the analyzing device;
`
`an opened-to-atmosphere cavity connected to an outlet of the liquid retaining
`
`connecting passage; and
`
`an air hole disposed in the opened-to-atmosphere cavity, allowing fluid
`
`communication between the open-to-atmosphere cavity and outside atmosphere.
`
`11-20. (Canceled)
`
`21.
`
`(Previously presented) The analyzing device of claim 10, wherein the connecting
`
`passage is configured to transfer the solid component to the overflow cavity.
`
`

`

`S/N: 15/941836
`
`22.
`
`(Canceled)
`
`23.
`
`(Previously presented) The analyzing device of claim 10, wherein a portion of the
`
`connecting passage extends outwardly toward an outer periphery of the analyzing deVice to
`
`the second end, with the second end of the connecting passage located closer to the outer
`
`periphery of the analyzing deVice than the first end of the connecting passage.
`
`24.
`
`(New) The analyzing deVice of claim 23, wherein the liquid retaining connecting
`
`passage has an elongate body extending from an outer end to an inner end, with the outer
`
`end being located closer to an outer periphery of the analyzing deVice,
`
`the outer end of the liquid retaining connecting passage haVing a radial location
`
`corresponding to a radial location of the second end of the connecting passage, and
`
`the opened-to-atmosphere caVity with the air hole being disposed at the inner end of
`
`the liquid retaining connecting passage.
`
`25.
`
`(New) The analyzing deVice of claim 24, wherein no air hole is formed in the
`
`connecting passage.
