摘要: The apparatus and method of the present invention disclose a scanning imaging cytometer wherein an unprocessed biological fluid sample is reacted with a fluorescently-labeled binding agent. The reacted sample undergoes minimal processing before it is placed into a capillary tube. The sample is optically scanned and fluorescence excitation is recorded from a plurality of columnar regions of the capillary tube, each columnar region generally defined by the spot size of the excitation beam and the depth dimension of the capillary tube. A spatial filter of a sufficient pinhole diameter is selected to allow simultaneous volumetric detection of all fluorescent targets in each columnar region.

摘要: A calibration method and device for a fluorescence spectrometer which uses fluorescence from a homogeneous solid state standard as the source of calibration fluorescence and wherein the solid state standard may be built into the optical scanner and the calibration may be automatically performed as a routine step when using the optical scanner. A gold standard establishes fluorescent units, and the fluorescence spectrometer is calibrated by reference to calibration standards, such as calibration rubies, which are themselves rated against the gold standard and built into the fluorescence spectrometer to provide an unchanging reference to the gold standard and by which simultaneous calibration of two or more channels of a multi-channel fluorescence spectrometer may be accomplished, including automatically calibrating a multi-channel optical scanner when it is turned on to achieve an acceptable level of sensitivity in each channel and to adjust for any relative shift in sensitivity between the channels.

摘要: Systems and methods for automated laser microdissection are disclosed. In one variation, targeted biological material is manually or automatically selected and a transfer film is placed in juxtaposition to the location of an interior of a cut path. In another variation, a sample of biological material is mounted onto a polymer membrane which is then placed onto a substrate. Targeted biological material is manually or automatically selected and a transfer film is placed in juxtaposition with the targeted biological material on the side of the biological material. In yet another variation, a sample of biological material is mounted onto a polymer membrane which is then inverted onto a substrate. Targeted biological material is manually or automatically selected and a transfer film is placed in juxtaposition with the targeted biological material on the side of the polymer membrane. Then, an UV laser cuts along a cut path around the targeted portions of biological material in a closed cut path or a substantially closed cut path defining an interior and an exterior portion of the tissue sample. In a substantially closed cut path, bridges are left spanning the interior of the cut path and the exterior of the cut path. An IR laser activates at least a portion of the transfer film such that the transfer film in the vicinity of targeted portion adheres to the biological material interior to the cut path. The transfer film is then removed separating the targeted portions of biological material which are adhered to the transfer film from the remaining portion of the tissue sample.

摘要: A laser capture microdissection lift-off substrate comprising a transparent thermoplastic film is incorporated into substrate which may take the form of a cap or other structure associated with an analysis vessel or which may be used with a holder or other element of a LCM tissue sample transfer apparatus. The thermoplastic lift-off substrate film is held in a fixed position on the substrate which may be relative to a feature of a biological analysis vessel. The film may be affixed to a substrate which is a structure which goes into the vessel such that the sample is held in a fixed position relative to an observation port on the vessel.
