摘要:
A fluorescence detection apparatus comprising: a sample holder for fixing and holding sample vessels on a circular arc; a partition plate being joined to drive means for rotation on the center of the circular arc; an excitation light source; excitation light optical means; and fluorescence optical means containing a light guide being fixed on the partition plate for rotation integrally and a photosensor. The photosensor is mechanically discontinued from the drive means and fixedly placed. The fluorescence signal emission end of the light guide is placed facing the photosensor on the rotation center axis and the partition plate and the parts fixed thereto are rotated integrally, whereby fluorescence detection of the samples arranged on the circular arc is repeated in order.

A method for detecting fluorescence from a liquid sample housed in a transparent or translucent sample container includes providing a sample container in a sample holder, which is opaque except for a sample container introduction opening and incoming and outgoing openings for excitation light; layering a liquid sample and a shielding liquid unmixable therewith to prevent external light from entering through the sample container introduction opening; introducing excitation light from such a direction that the excitation light can irradiate the liquid sample before irradiating the shielding liquid; and detecting fluorescence, which emits in a direction of avoiding absorption by the shielding liquid.
摘要:
A fluorescence detection apparatus is provided which comprises a sample holder for holding stationarily sample vessels deployed along a circle line or concentric circle lines having different radiuses, a partition plate connected to a driving means to be rotatable around the center of the circle line or concentric circle lines, an optical means for excitation light and an optical means for fluorescence light fixed respectively to the partition plate to be rotatable in integration therewith, a first light guide constituted of numerous optical fibers, a photosensor, and a light source for generating the excitation light, wherein the partition plate, the optical means for excitation light, and the optical means for fluorescence are integrally rotated, and thereby the fluorescence of the sample arranged along the circle line is successively detected and the detected fluorescence is transmitted to the photosensor. This fluorescence detection apparatus is useful in real-time monitoring of fluorescence signals, and satisfies the requirements of precise temperature control, quick treatment of many samples, high sensitivity, high reliability, low cost, and small size of the apparatus.
摘要:
An apparatus including a sample holder which fixedly holds sample vessels arranged on a same arc, a partition plate, a light guide which is configured by optical fibers and which transmits fluorescent signals emitted from respective test samples, to an optical sensor, the single optical sensor, and a light source which generates excitation light. Fluorescent signal emission ends of the light guide are opposed to the optical sensor, and fluorescent signal incidence ends of the light guide are respectively opposed to the sample vessels via the partition plate therebetween. The partition plate includes an excitation light optical unit for selectively guiding the excitation light from the light source to only one of the sample vessels arranged on the arc, and a fluorescence optical unit for guiding only the fluorescent signal emitted from a selected one of the sample vessels to the light guide. The partition plate is coupled together with the excitation light optical unit and the fluorescence optical unit to a driving unit, to be rotatable about a center of the arc on which the sample vessels are arranged. Fluorescence is detected while the excitation light is guided sequentially to the sample vessels arranged on the arc, by rotation of the partition plate.
