摘要:
To enable contactless laser microdissection in a closed container (10, 11), for example in the form of a Petri dish, it is proposed according to the invention to use a holding device which comprises a receiving portion (4) for arrangement in the container (10, 11) and a holding portion (1) for arrangement externally of the container (10, 11). The receiving portion (4) serves to receive at least one receiving means (9), which serves in turn to receive or collect at least one biological specimen obtained by laser microdissection from biological material (15) located in the container (10, 11). The holding portion (1) is coupled to the receiving portion (4) in contactless manner, for example by means of magnetic coupling, in such a way that, by moving the holding portion (1), the receiving portion (4), together with the receiving means (9) held thereby, may be positioned in the closed container (10, 11) precisely over the biological specimen in each case to be received.

Receiving element for receiving a specimen detached from a biological mass by means of laser radiation A receiving element (1) is provided for receiving a specimen detached from a biological mass (7) by means of laser radiation, the receiving element (1) comprising a receiving surface for receiving the specimen, the receiving surface comprising an adhesive agent (4) for enhancing the adhesion of the respective specimen to the receiving surface. The adhesive agent (4) suppresses the occurrence of electrostatic forces, acting on the specimen, in the receiving element (1), may be dissolved without damaging the specimen and/or may receive agents for further processing of the specimen. A suitable adhesive agent (4) is in particular a hydrogel such as for example agarose. Such a receiving element (1) is suitable in particular for collecting specimens catapulted out of the biological mass (7).

In relation with a laser-induced transport process of an object from a carrier to a collecting device, the invention provides a collecting medium in the collecting device in a liquid state. Prior to the laser-induced transport process, the object is separated from a mass on the carrier by laser irradiation. After the laser-induced transport process, the object, thus selected and separated, is transferred together with the collecting medium to a destination, for example, a container, for further treatment. To this end, a manipulation system for liquids is provided, the system permitting manipulation of the collecting medium with the object contained therein with a high degree of reliability and a high throughput.
摘要:
A microdissection method for separating and taking a target zone of a biological preparation, disposed on a carrier device with a laser light-absorbent incisable layer and a carrier means, comprises cutting the preparation and the incisable layer along an edge segment of the target zone and removing of a non-excised segment of the incisable layer from the carrier means.
