    摘要: A system and method for measuring signals having a wide range of intensity components using detectors adapted for use in biological analysis devices. In certain biological analysis applications, signals emitted by a sample may have intensity components that vary over several orders of magnitude. Measurement of such a signal may yield an acceptable quality for one intensity component at the expense of another component. For example, a detector configured to measure a relatively weak intensity component may cause it to overflow when subjected to a relatively strong intensity component. The detector can be adapted to be operated at different configurations to allow measurements of different components of the signal, and the results can be combined to yield an accurate representation of the signal.

    摘要: An apparatus for detecting labeled beads is provided. The apparatus can include: one or more irradiation sources disposed for irradiating the one or more detection zones with radiation; at least one detector disposed for collecting charges corresponding to light signals emitted from labeled beads in the one or more detection zones, which have been excited by the radiation; and a system coupled to the at least one detector for effecting time delay integration of the charges by accumulating the charges before reading the charges at the output of the at least one detector.

    摘要: An apparatus for imaging an array of a plurality of features associated with a sample tile. The apparatus can comprise a stage that supports the sample tile in an illumination region, and an illumination source having a plurality of LEDs adapted to emit light. At least a portion of the light can illuminate the illumination region. Additionally, the apparatus can comprise an image collecting device adapted to selectively collect images of either a first signal when the illumination source is illuminating the illumination region, or a second signal absent illumination of the illumination region. The first signal can have wavelengths effectively different from the wavelengths of the portion of the light emitted by the LEDs that illuminates the illumination region.
