ABSTRACT:
A microinjection apparatus has a trap plate which traps at least one cell, so as to fix a position thereof, a capillary needle which injects a substance into the cell trapped by the trap plate, a movement mechanism portion which thrusts a distal end of the capillary needle onto a in a lengthwise direction of the needle, and which withdraws the capillary needle in the lengthwise direction thereof, and a discharge control portion which discharges the substance from the distal end of the capillary needle, when the capillary needle has been withdrawn to a predetermined position by the movement mechanism portion.
