摘要:
Cartridge and method for the detection of the presence, absence and/or amount of a target nucleotide sequence in a sample comprising one or more nucleic acid sequences. The cartridge comprises a one or more nucleic acid sequences, and the cartridge includes a generic part and one or more separate application-specific parts, which are connectable to the generic part.
摘要:
An optical detection system for monitoring real-time PCR reactions in a plurality of sample chambers with a plurality of optical units is provided. Due to a relative movement, the optical units are relative to the sample chambers, color multiplexing and space multiplexing are combined for optically detecting pathogens in a sample during the process of the PCR and delivering a quantitative result.

摘要:
A device for receiving a sample carrier is provided. The device includes an opening for receiving part of the sample carrier and a cutter for removing a part of the sample carrier. The cutter is coupled to a lid, which is movable to allow the cutter to make an incision in the sample carrier and, at the same time, to close at least part of the opening left open after receipt of the sample carrier. The disclosure further relates to a system comprising such a device and a method for operating such a device.

The system comprises at least a processing apparatus and a sample unit, the sample unit comprises a plurality of microfluidic elements, the processing apparatus comprises actuation means capable of actuating at the microfluidic elements such that a quick, cheap and accurate analysis of the biological sample is possible.
摘要:
An apparatus for irradiating a liquid sample with acoustic energy to generate cavitation in the liquid sample is provided. The apparatus includes a source and is adapted to receive a cartridge in such a way, that the apparatus focuses the HIFU waves emitted from the source onto a liquid air interface that is present within the cartridge. This focusing is performed when the cartridge is inserted into a receiving section of the apparatus.
摘要:
A fluid processing system is described having at least two chambers. Each of said chambers is separated in a first and a second part by a flexible membrane, the first part, in use, comprising essentially a gas and the second part, in use comprising essentially a non-gaseous fluid, an inlet and/or an outlet means. One or more channels are provided connecting said second parts of said at least two chambers, wherein at least one of said one or more channels includes a pressure sensitive one-way valve. Further, means for exerting pressure on said first part of at least one of said at least two chambers is provided to allow transfer of a sample liquid.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a cartridge for the detection of the presence, absence and/or amount of a target nucleotide sequence in a sample comprising one or more nucleic acid sequences. The cartridge comprises a first component and a second component being connectable to each other, the first component comprising at least a first fluid opening and a first sealing surface and the second component comprising at least a second fluid opening and a second sealing surface. Upon connection of the first and second component the first and second fluid opening are placeable in fluid communication and the first and second sealing surfaces are placeable against each other to seal the fluid communication between the first and second fluid opening. The invention is characterized in that the cartridge comprises biasing means for biasing the second sealing surface in the direction of the first sealing surface.
摘要:
For the production of a SLM device, one mounts a spatial light modulator (SLM) (2) on a substrate (3) of the same material as the main material of the SLM (2) to be juxtaposed with the substrate (3). Particularly, silicon based SLMs (2) are mounted on a silicon substrate (3). This leads to arrays of SLMs (2) that maintain a high accuracy with respect to position of the SLMs (2) and planarity. To further improve the planarity, it is preferred to mount the SLMs (2) on the substrate (3) by soldering, using the self-aligning effect of solder connections (20).
