A focusing unit (16) can be inserted into and removed from an illumination light path by rotating around a supporting portion (16c). An index light source (15), a green LED, is attached to the bottom of a base (16a). A transparent acrylic-resin disk (16b) is fixed to the base. A deflection prism (13) is attached to the bottom of the disk. A beam from the light source enters the deflection prism. A focus index forming portion (14) is provided on the top of the disk. In the center of a light-shielding portion (14a) is formed a slit-like opening (14b), under which split prisms (14c, 14d) are provided. Deflected by the prisms, the beam from the light source is split into two, right-half and left-half, directional beams, and combined with an illumination optical system, in the form of two slit images, at the opening.

A biochemical reaction cartridge includes a reaction portion, comprising a chamber (11) and a passage, for effecting a biochemical reaction, and a solution storage portion (6), which is isolated or separated from said reaction portion, for storing a solution in a position corresponding to the chamber. The cartridge is provided with a penetrable partition member (10) disposed between said solution storage portion and said reaction portion so as to move the solution from said solution storage portion to the chamber of said reaction portion. The biochemical reaction cartridge is incorporated in a biochemical reaction apparatus.

A fundus camera includes an optical path splitting unit arranged between a focusing unit and an imaging unit. The optical path splitting unit has characteristics adapted to reflect light of a visible light region and to transmit near-infrared light. The optical path splitting unit retreats from an optical path when a still fundus image is photographed. A quick-return mirror having such characteristics is used as the optical path splitting unit. When near-infrared illumination light having a wavelength of about 850 nm is used, such light can be incident upon the imaging unit without loss of the amount of light. In addition, visible light output from an internal fixation target is projected onto a subject's eye. Further, a cornea diaphragm and a crystalline lens diaphragm are used for observing a fundus with invisible light. Each of the cornea diaphragm and the crystalline lens diaphragm can be changed to another one having a different diameter.
摘要:
A method for screening presence or absence of a variation in a region of a nucleic acid which comprises the steps of (a) preparing a sample containing a test nucleic acid corresponding to the region, (b) preparing a probe having a base sequence fully complementary to a normal sequence of the region, and a plurality of probes each having at least one base not complementary to the normal sequence, (c) fixing the probes in separate regions on a surface of a substrate to prepare a DNA array substrate, (d) reacting the test nucleic acid with the probes on the DNA array substrate, (e) measuring signals in each region where the signals are originated from respective hybrids formed between the test nucleic acid and one of the probes, and (f) determining variation in the test nucleic acid using a pattern of total signals of all regions.
