Abstract:
A cell mobility characteristics sensing apparatus including a laser light source, a light sensor, an analyzing chip, and a display is disclosed. The laser light source emits laser beams to a cell sample. The light sensor senses scattered laser beams formed by the cell sample scattering the laser beams at a plurality of time points to obtain a plurality of laser scattering patterns corresponding to the plurality of time points respectively. The analyzing chip obtains a laser scattering pattern fluctuations information of the plurality of laser scattering patterns varied with the plurality of time points to estimate the mobility characteristics of the cells in the cell sample. The display shows the mobility characteristics of the cells in the cell sample estimated by the analyzing chip.
Abstract:
An optical measuring apparatus and an operating method thereof are disclosed. The optical measuring apparatus includes a light source, a carrier chip, a light sensor, an analyzing chip and a display. Samples are uniformly distributed on the carrier chip. The light source emits sensing lights toward the carrier chip. The light sensor receives the sensing lights passing through the carrier chip at a plurality of times to obtain a plurality of images corresponding to the plurality of times respectively. The analyzing chip is coupled to the light sensor. The analyzing chip analyzes the object number and distribution variation with time in the sample according to the plurality of images corresponding to the plurality of times and estimates intrinsic characteristics of the object in the sample accordingly. The display is coupled to the analyzing chip. The display displays the intrinsic characteristics of the object in the sample.
Abstract:
A microfluidic control apparatus operating method is disclosed. The microfluidic control apparatus operating method is applied in a microfluidic control apparatus, and the microfluidic control apparatus includes a photoconductive material layer and a flow passage. The microfluidic control apparatus operating method includes steps of (a) when a light with a specific optical pattern is emitted toward the photoconductive material layer, at least three virtual electrodes being formed on the photoconductive material layer according to the specific optical pattern; (b) when the specific optical pattern changes, the at least three virtual electrodes also changing to generate an electro-osmotic force to control a moving state of a microfluid in the flow passage.
