Abstract:
A small optical biological information measuring instrument for measuring biological information with good reproducibility and with high accuracy. An optical biological information measuring instrument comprising a light source unit (11) for illuminating an organism, a light−receiving unit (12) for receiving the light (13) propagated from the light source unit (11) through the inside of the organism and emerging from the surface (1) of the organism, a forming unit (10) for forming the surface (1) of the organism into a predetermined shape by pressing the surface (1), and a calculation unit (14) for calculating biological information about the organism by using the information on the relation between the amount of light received that is previously determined from the amount of light (13) received by the light receiving unit (12) and the biological information on the organism.
