Abstract:
In an image capturing apparatus in which irradiation light emitted from a light source is projected onto an observation area through an irradiation window, reflection light of the irradiation light incident on the irradiation window and reflected from the window is detected and a liquid is discharged onto the irradiation window according to a result of the detection.
Abstract:
It is provided that a lens positioning jig, a method of attaching lens barrel, and a lens device. A lens holding portion is inserted through a barrel insertion hole, and then a housing holding portion allows a barrel attachment portion to be thereby positioned and held in a lens housing. When an air pump is operated, a lens holding portion sucks and holds a convergent lens held in a second lens barrel and then positioned with respect to the barrel attachment portion. In addition, the second lens barrel is held in the lens housing so that the second flange does not come in contact with barrel attachment groove. Subsequently, an adhesive is filled into a gap formed between the second flange and the barrel attachment groove to thereby fix the second lens barrel thereto.

Abstract:
An image forming apparatus includes an acquiring unit that acquires a plurality of types of operation control information of the image forming apparatus; an index value calculating unit that calculates an index value indicating a state of the image forming apparatus based on the acquired operation control information; an abnormality judging unit that judges whether the image forming apparatus abnormality has occurred and predicts an occurrence of a failure based on the index value; and a detection pattern position detecting unit that detects a position of a detection pattern on an image carrier carrying a toner image. The detection pattern is formed on the image carrier carrying the toner image. The detection pattern position detecting unit detects the position of the detection pattern formed on the image carrier. The index value calculating unit uses information based on position detection data as the operation control information of the image forming apparatus.

Abstract:
A method for producing biochemical analysis data includes the steps of collecting light selectively released from a plurality of light releasable regions two-dimensionally formed to be spaced apart from each other in a sample placed on a sample stage by a plurality of light guide member each of which is disposed to face one of the plurality of light releasable regions, leading the thus collected light to a light detector and photoelectrically detecting the light by the light detector. According to this method, it is possible to produce biochemical analysis data having high quantitative characteristics by photoelectrically detecting light emitted from a plurality of light releasable regions even in the case where the plurality of light releasable regions labeled with a labeling substance are formed in a sample at a high density.
