    摘要: An absorbance measuring photometer, for measuring the absorbance of a sample in a sample cell, in which light of preselected wavelengths from one of two alternately utilizable sources of different wavelengths is formed into a beam and the etendu of the beam defined. The beam is then split into two separate beams one of which is directed through the sample cell onto a first detector and the other of which is passed directly onto a reference detector. The beam is so directed though the sample cell that it does not touch the cell walls and both beams are imaged on their respective detectors so as to be wholly within the photosensitive area thereof.

    摘要: An instrument for performing highly accurate PCR employing an assembly, a heated cover, and an internal computer, is provided. The assembly is made up of a sample block, a number of Peltier thermal electric devices, and a heat sink, clamped together. A control algorithm manipulates the current supplied to thermoelectric coolers such that the dynamic thermal performance of a block can be controlled so that pre-defined thermal profiles of sample temperature can be executed. The sample temperature is calculated instead of measured using a design specific model and equations. The control software includes calibration diagnostics which permit variation in the performance of thermoelectric coolers from instrument to instrument to be compensated for such that all instruments perform identically. The block/heat sink assembly can be changed to another of the same or different design. The assembly carries the necessary information required to characterize its own performance in an on-board memory device, allowing the assembly to be interchangeable among instruments while retaining its precision operating characteristics.

    摘要: Apparatus and method for determining an unknown starting molar concentration of target nucleic acid molecules at the beginning of a polymerase chain reaction in a sample reaction mixture containing suitable buffers, two complementary kinds of oligonucleotide primers, a molar excess of four kinds of nucleoside triphosphates, a DNA polymerase, and the unknown starting molar concentration of target nucleic acid molecules, wherein the two kinds of primers are provided in a known concentration (C.sub.po), the method including the steps of adding a reporter molecule which does not significantly interfere with the reaction and does not emit a strong signal in the absence of double-stranded DNA, but makes the dsDNA created by the reaction detectable and measurable at least once each cycle, thermal cycling one or more standard reaction mixtures which are substantially the same in every respect except they have known starting molar concentration of target mucleic acid molecules to obtain one or more growth curves with known starting molar concentrations of target nucleic acid molecules, exciting the reaction mixture during at least the extension portion of each cycle, detecting and measuring the intensity of the signal during at least the extension portion of each of the cycles, converting said intensity to molar concentration values of dsDNA and storing the molar concentration values for each of the extension portions of each of the cycles, generating a measured curve of molar concentration of dsDNA versus cycle number from the stored concentration values, using successive approximations, determining values of e.sub.v, e.sub.s, a, C.sub.z (n) and A.sub.z (n) which provide a best fit of the measured curve to the one or more known growth curves according to the following relation: C.sub.n+1 =C.sub.n e.sub.v plus the minimum of ##EQU1##
