摘要:
The invention provides a chemical analysis apparatus which easily agitates and warms up. A chemical analysis apparatus has a motor, a retaining disc which can be rotated by the motor, a plurality of inspection cartridges which are arranged on the retaining disc, a punching machine for punching the inspection cartridges, a warming apparatus and a detection apparatus. The inspection cartridge includes a container formed by a concave portion and a base plate having a flow path. A cover covering the container and the flow path is installed to the base plate. A liquid solution is moved to the container in an outer peripheral side with respect to a rotation axis from the container in an inner peripheral side with respect to the rotation axis via the flow path, by utilizing a centrifugal force generated on the basis of the rotation of the retaining disc. The inspection cartridge is provided with an agitating means for agitating the liquid solution within the container and a warming means for warming up the liquid solution within the container.

摘要:
A chemical analyzing apparatus accommodates therein a structure for retaining a sample and reagents. A detecting mechanism detects the sample after reaction with a reagent. After or during extraction of a biological substance from the sample in the structure, a temperature of a fluid in a space around the structure is controlled to a value which is suitable for enzyme.

A chemical analysis device capable of suppressing deterioration of analysis and test accuracy while avoiding contamination by residual samples or reagents and having no complicated configuration is constructed.A pipetting unit is equipped with a syringe, plunger, and needle unit in which a carrier for capturing nucleic acid and a detection cell is mounted on the needle unit. A pipetting unit drive system is configured so that the pipetting unit is detachable. After the detection cell is removed from the pipetting unit and fixed to a nucleic acid amplification detection unit, a suction/dispensing operation of samples/reagents is performed by the pipetting unit and components to be measured are captured by the carrier. Captured components are measured after being dispensed into the detection cell fixed to the nucleic acid amplification detection unit. Then, the detection cell is taken out from the nucleic acid amplification detection unit while mounted on the pipetting unit and the whole pipetting unit is removed from the pipetting unit drive system.
摘要:
A method and apparatus of stably obtaining fluorescent images of two or more fluorescent samples includes disposing the samples onto compartments defined on a substrate. The compartments are sequentially irradiated with an exciting light where the intensity varies. A value of fluorescence as generated from each of the samples is determined, and a fluorescent image is obtained based on the value of fluorescence.
摘要:
A fluorescent or luminescence image of at least part of a biological sample is imaged, then a transmission light image of at least part of the biological sample is imaged, and thereafter the fluorescent or luminescence image and the transmission light image are overlaid such that the identical area of the sample is coincided to display. The present invention allows detecting the accurate location of fluorescence or luminescence in a given part of the biological sample.
摘要:
A DNA sample added with a plurality of fluorescent marks is irradiated with excitation lights having a plurality of wavelengths and when fluorescence intensities are detected separately, the excitation light and a position on the sample are relatively changed over a desired area once to thereby detect the plurality of fluorescent marks at high speed.

Disclosed is an apparatus for measuring a micro area in a specimen in which a reagent necessary for observation and examination of a cell smear specimen or a tissue specimen is dropped to cause a reaction for a measurement and an analysis by way of an image. The apparatus includes: a micro reaction unit that is able to select a specific micro area in the specimen and to subject the specific micro area to a reaction-operation; a unit that measures; records and displays an image of the micro area; and a control unit that controls the measuring, recording, and displaying unit. Reactions can be effected quickly on such specimens as smear cell specimens and tissue slice specimens. The application of the reagent solution can be saved. A comparison between local presence of a gene or anti-body and a cell image can be made quickly and easily.
摘要:
A raster device such as a digital printer or the like which sequentially compares input image data with each element in a threshold matrix to convert the input image data into binary or multi-level pixel data. For providing both a higher resolution and a larger number of halftone levels for an output image at a low cost, an input image is decomposed into four color planes as CMYK data, and data on each color plane is compared with a dither matrix in a binarization circuit to be converted to binary data. The dither matrix generates a dither pattern composed of eight clusters having substantially the same shape as a kernel cluster capable of expressing 15 or more halftone levels. In this way, a smooth gradation having 120 or more halftone levels is realized by repetitively applying a small pattern having approximately 15 halftone levels.

A facsimile apparatus has a lower structure and an upper structure which is swingable between a raised open position an a lowered close position about a pivot located at a lower part of the rear end portion of the apparatus. A thermal print head is fixed to the front end portion of the upper structure. A recording medium conveyor roller is fixed to the front end portion of the lower structure. A linear image sensor and an original sheet conveyor roller are fixed to a central portion of the lower structure. The recording medium is placed on the lower structure at a position between the thermal print head and the linear image sensor.
