    摘要: A stirring device includes the following. A rotating holder is capable of performing a rotating operation in a state where the rotating holder holds a cartridge that accommodates a liquid agent in which a solute is precipitated in a solvent by the liquid agent being left still. A drive motor causes the rotating holder to perform the rotating operation. A posture controller corrects a stop position of the rotating holder to position the cartridge in a first posture in a case where an operation of the drive motor is stopped in a state where the cartridge is in a second posture that is different from the first posture. The first posture is a state in which the cartridge is in a normal stop posture.
