    摘要: This invention relates to an optical system and method for performing turbidity assay, e.g. coagulation of blood or plasma, comprising a standard optical reference, a sample handling structure, a light source and an optical detection unit. The standard optical reference, such as a fluorophore-doped glass, provides constant optical signal under controlled optical conditions. The sample handling structure, such as a microfluidic system with reaction chamber, can be placed beneath or above the standard optical reference. During operation, the coagulating plasma/blood changes its optical absorbance and reflection properties, which results in changes in optical signal that reaches the optical reading unit. The variation of the optical signal, such as fluorescence signal indicates the kinetics of the turbidity varying process, such as plasma/blood coagulation process. This invention is used for performing turbidity assay with optical system, including photometry system, fluorescence system, Raman Spectroscopy system and so on.

    摘要: A bioserisor platform is configured with upconverting nanoparticles on the surface of a resonant grating structure with enhanced sensitivity. The grating structure is illuminated with a light beam at one of its resonance modes to form a strong evanescent field at the surface and used for high sensitivity assays. The strong evanescent field triggers the upconverting nanoparticles to generate enhanced and localized emission on the grating surface, with lower background and lower auto-fluorescence from the grating substrate. This leads to improved performance in detecting analytes in bioassays.

    摘要: The invention relates to a microfluidic platform (1) having at least one means (12) for initiating a movement of a liquid (P), in particular a sample liquid, between at least two locations (100, 101) of the microfluidic platform (1).It is proposed according to the invention that the means (12) is embodied as an element of changeable volume and/or shape and is mounted on a cover-like component (11) that is movably connected to the microfluidic platform (1). By moving of the component (11) the element (12) can be brought into a position such that, by changing its volume and/or shape, it causes the liquid (P) situated at the location (100) to be moved at least partly from this location (100) to the other location (101).In this way a sample liquid (P) can be transferred from a sample application point (100) to a sample utilisation area (101) in a very simple and reliable manner.The invention further proposes a method by which a movement of a liquid between two locations can be initiated, while this can be done in particular using a microfluidic platform (1) according to the invention.

    摘要: The invention relates to a microfluidic device for metering liquids into a microfluidic network. The microfluidic channels or chambers are at least partly formed by the introduction of suitable structures into a film above the substrate carrier, so that at least some of the flow of fluid through the network takes place above the plane of the substrate. In order to form a stable channel structure or chamber structure in the film, it is envisaged that in the edge zone between the unattached and attached portions a wedge of material is formed by the viscous flow of the film material as the film is bonded to the substrate, this wedge forming a transition between the chamber wall and the substrate and raising the chamber wall above the plane of the substrate. In one method of producing a finished microfluidic structure a flat planar film is laminated onto a flat sheet-like substrate. During the lamination a mask having at least one recess or opening is pressed onto the film and onto the substrate under pressure and/or under the effect of heat. The film is thereby brought to a temperature at which there is a viscous flow of film and/or substrate medium into the region of the recess or opening, so that a wedge of material is formed and the film bulges up in the region of the recess to form a chamber. The invention further relates to methods of metering at least one liquid in a microfluidic network, in which a capillary stop is overcome by actuating the film, the film being wetted as the capillary stop is removed.
