摘要:
A reaction disk provides a compact and inexpensive design of an automatic analyzer so that the constituents in a suspension, such as blood sampled from a patient at a sick room or other place in a hospital, can be analyzed immediately and quantitatively. A separation cell and a determination cell are formed in a same reaction disk so as to maintain an upright position even during rotation of the both cells. The separation cell is formed to prevent poured suspension therein from flowing out during centrifugal separation, and a supernatant separated by centrifugation from the suspension contained in the separation cell is dispensed to the determination cell to analyze a target substance in the supernatant.

There is provided a dispensing mechanism for a liquid to be dispensed that does not damage microspherical bodies such as an erythrocyte and a liposome in the liquid to be dispensed when the liquid to be dispensed such as a sample and test liquid is sucked/discharged with a pipette.When a liquid to be dispensed of a sample or a test liquid being an object to be measured includes a microspherical body, and the microspherical body is one with such property that it may be damaged when being contacted with a liquid having an osmotic pressure different from that of the liquid in the microspherical body, the damage of the microspherical body is prevented by sequentially sucking a gas, a solution exhibiting an osmotic pressure that does not damage the microspherical body in the liquid to be dispensed and not having a bad effect on the measurement, the gas, and the liquid to be dispensed in a pipette the inside of which is filled with a liquid, because the pipette inside wall is substituted with the solution having an osmotic pressure that does not damage the microspherical body.

Provided are a simple and inexpensive cleaning apparatus and a method for cleaning capable of effectively cleaning the outer wall surface of a pipette. A pipette to be cleaned is positioned in a concave portion of the cleaning apparatus, and a cleaning liquid passed through inside of the pipette strikes an inner circumferential surface of the concave portion and bounces therefrom to splash against the outer wall surface of the pipette, thereby cleaning the outer surface. With above arrangement, without using an ejection apparatus of cleaning water, effect equivalent to that with the ejection apparatus can be attained. Furthermore, both the inner wall surface and the outer wall surface of the pipette can be cleaned by a single operation using the same cleaning water, thereby attaining easy internal cleaning work and short cleaning time.

Provided is a composite multi-reagent vessel for an autoanalyzer, which prevents incorrectly combining a plurality of reagents including a standard or a control, and eliminates the work for combining reagents for analysis. A plurality of containers are each capable of standing on their own and are connected together each with an opening portion at the top and each being detachable and capable of standing as the connected reagent containers, thereby forming the composite multi-reagent vessel for the autoanalyzer to have reagents for analyzing the same analytical item therein, and a small container to have a reagent therein that is held on a step or a concave portion formed at a shoulder portion of any of the connected reagent containers.
摘要:
In an optical transmission apparatus, optical power of each of wavelength contained in a wavelength multiplexing signal is measured, a measured value of the optical power of each wavelength is compared with a predetermined threshold value, a total value of the measured values of the optical power, which are equal to or larger than the threshold value, is calculated as a total value of signal beam power, and a total value of the measured values of the optical power, which are less then the threshold value, is calculated as a total value of ASE power. The number of the measured values of the optical power, which are equal to or larger than the threshold value, is calculated as a wavelength count of the signal beams contained in the wavelength multiplexing signal. A signal-to-ASE ratio is calculated from the total value of the signal beam power and the total value of the ASE power. The optical power of the wavelength multiplexing signal inputted to an optical amplifier is measured, and a target value of the automatic level control (ALC) is determined by use of the measured values of the wavelength count, the signal-to-ASE ratio and the optical power of the wavelength multiplexing signal in order to execute the ALC of the optical amplifier so that the optical power of each of the wavelengths in the wavelength multiplexing signal outputted from the optical amplifier, becomes constant.

Optical signals (multi-wavelength light) are guided to an EDF. The EDF is supplied with pump light generated by a first and a second pump light sources. Dummy light is generated by a dummy light source and supplied to the EDF. The wavelength of the dummy light is shorter than a wavelength range in which the optical signals are allocated.

The present invention has an object to provide an optical amplifier capable of realizing a good response characteristic in a wide frequency band, even when a population inversion state is formed by a pumping light supplied to an optical amplification medium and an ASE light generated in the optical amplification medium. To this end, in the optical amplifier according to the present invention, a delayed phase matching fiber in which a first fiber whose response speed is relatively low is arranged on the input side and a second fiber whose response speed is relatively high is arranged on the output side, is used as the optical amplification medium doped with a rare-earth element.
