    Abstract: The invention relates to a method of detecting neutrophil extracellular traps in a sample (4) of a biofluid, wherein the sample (4) of the biofluid is supplied with a nucleic acid-selective dye, wherein, after the staining, a multitude of optical, particle-related measurements is determined in the sample (4) within the absorption range of the dye, in each case as a tuple of a measurement of a first optical feature and a second optical feature, wherein measurements of the first optical feature are selected within a sub-range (6) of all measured values of the first optical feature and those of the second optical feature within a sub-range (7) of all measured values of the second optical feature, and wherein the number of selected measurements for detection of the neutrophil extracellular traps is compared to a predetermined borderline value.

    Abstract: A microparticle measuring apparatus for highly accurately detecting the position of a microparticle flowing through a flow channel includes a light irradiation unit for irradiating a microparticle flowing through a flow channel with light, and a scattered light detection unit for detecting scattered light from the microparticle, including an objective lens for collecting light from the microparticle, a light splitting element for dividing the scattered light from the light collected by the objective lens, into first and second scattered light, a first scattered light detector for receiving an S-polarized light component, and an astigmatic element disposed between the light splitting element and the first scattered light detector, and making the first scattered light astigmatic. A relationship between a length L from a rear principal point of the objective lens to a front principal point of the astigmatic element, and a focal length f of the astigmatic element satisfies the following formula I. 1.5 �¢ f ‰¤ L ‰¤ 2.5 �¢ f

    Abstract: An improved nozzle system for a flow cytometer have been invented for a high efficiency orientation and sorting process of a flat sample and dedicates items such as equine or bovine sperm cells. This improved nozzle system comprises a nozzle (16) with a novel interior surface geometry that can both gently accelerate the cells and can include an elliptical-like, single torsional interior surface element within (c) the nozzle, i.e., a single torsional orientation nozzle (6). The elliptical-like, single torsional interior surface element (e.g.) (8, 9, 10) may have a laminar flow surface and may produce the simplest flow path for applying minimal forces which act in either an accelerative nature or orienting hydrodynamic forces, namely, the single torsional orientation forces, to orient a flat sample (16) such as animal sperm cells into a proper direction for an analyzing and efficiently sorting process in clinical use, for research and for the animal insemination industry.
