    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.

    摘要: The invention is a multiplexer which enables light to be sent to and received from samples for simultaneous analysis. A multiplexer is described which uses a transverse probe to reflect light at an angle into an optical rod. The transverse probe is selectively rotated to transmit light to a second optical rod. Various numbers of optical rods may be used in the linear mutliplexer. A multiplexer is also described in which a conjugate optical barrel is utilized to selectively reflect light to various probes.

    摘要: Apparatus for measuring progressively the absorbance changes of a large number of aliquots from a plurality of different samples. The sample introduction, testing instructions, aliquot preparation, reagent dispensing, absorbance measuring and data recording all can be accomplished in a continuous mode of processing. Stat and batch operation also can be accomplished. The aliquots are in an array of cuvettes which is advanced slowly along a circular path. Photometer means, preferably having several photometric detectors, are mounted in fixed orientation on a common support that advances rapidly along a similar circular path, such that radiation passing through each of the cuvettes is monitored many times by a specific photometric detector by the time that that cuvette completes one circuit of its path. The photometric detectors can operate at several different wavelengths. Many different chemical reactions can be monitored at the same time. The radiant energy passing through each cuvette is received by the continuously moving photometer means, is converted electrically into a digitized value proportional to absorbance and is transmitted digitally from the moving assemblage of photometric detectors, cuvettes and electrical components to a stationary receiver. In one embodiment, the digital transmission is in the form of a pulsed train of light signals. In another embodiment, one or more slip rings transmit electric signals from the moving assemblage to the stationary portion. Suitable drive elements, sample and reagent storage and transfer mechanisms as well as cuvette laundry means may be provided as part of the complete apparatus.
