Explanation and meaning to whole terms of relevant fluorescence analysis basic principle are the art technology people The member is known.
The irradiation of particulate composition
The irradiation of particulate composition can be radiated with any and can be excited in the particulate composition the suitable light source of fluorescently-labeled light to carry out.Light source can be as common glow lamp, the xenon lamp or the stroboscopic lamp of specialty.
The optical property of fluorescence labeling compound can be known and in order to optimize known fluorescently-labeled exciting, optimized light source is the light source that quite most of light wavelength of its transmission is applicable to the fluorescence excitation mark.Avoid or limit exciting and launching (this may interference analysis) of other compound except that fluorescence labeling if want (this is possible when using known fluorescence labeling), so just need filtered beam, so that have only the light of selected wavelength can shine particulate composition.This can utilize one or more beam splitters and one or more bandpass filter such as height and/or low band pass filter, or the grating monochromator that only allows the light of specific wavelength to pass through is finished.These parts are incorporated into commercial usually, in the fluorescence analyser from U.S. Perkin Elmer.Bandpass filter and monochromator can make narrow wavelength coverage (usually at several nm, in 0.5-10nm) light pass through, and this is known to the skilled.Therefore the light in the term monochromatic light narrow wavelength coverage that is interpreted as determining by passband bandpass filter and monochromator.
In a particular, the light of irradiation particulate composition is by 1-10 discontinuous monochromatic wavelength, and preferred 1-4 discontinuous monochromatic wavelength formed.Especially, the light of irradiation particulate composition can be made up of 1 discontinuous monochromatic wavelength.In the step of irradiation particulate composition, can use aptly to comprise as catoptron, beam splitting from (as dichronic mirror) and/or fibre-optic optical devices so that irradiates light project on the particulate composition.
Radiative detection
Emission light can be fluorescence labeling be included in chemical group in the fluorescence labeling or component institute distinctive.Because fluorescence labeling is only launched the light in one or more narrow wavelength coverages usually, thus preferably emission light is filtered, so that only the emission light in these close limits just can reach detecting device.This can finish by utilizing one or more bandpass filter or monochromator to filter emission light as mentioned above, sees above.Simultaneously this can avoid may interference analysis other compound except that fluorescence labeling emit light into the amount that reaches detecting device or limit its arrival.Therefore, in a particular, have only the emission light of 1-10 discontinuous monochromatic wavelength to be detected, preferred 1-4 discontinuous monochromatic wavelength.Especially, the emission light that arrives detecting device can be made up of 1 discontinuous monochromatic wavelength.
In addition, the same with when irradiation, in detecting radiative step, can use aptly comprise as catoptron, beam splitter (as dichronic mirror), light transmitting fiber and/or focus on radiative means (as lens) optical devices so that emission light project on the detecting device.
Many kinds of detecting devices can be applied to detect emission light.Detecting device can be a photomultiplier transit type detecting device, photodiode or photodiode array, and line scan camera, CCD camera, ICCD camera or any are applicable to and detect radiative other type.Particularly, detecting device can be the camera type detecting device, as being selected from grayscale cameras, line scan camera, photodiode array, CCD (charge-coupled image sensor) camera and ICCD (strengthening CCD) camera.Especially, detecting device can be CCD camera and ICCD camera, thereby because they are sensitiveer and can form 2 dimension images and demonstrate the space distribution of light-emitting particles or grit.This is called fluorescence imaging according to specialty analysis personnel's term.In a particular, can use two or more detecting devices to write down two or more selected wavelength or two or more wavelength coverage simultaneously.If, just need such operation if measure the light that more than one fluorescence labeling or specific fluorescence labeling are launched different wave length.This especially can utilize the optical devices that comprise one or more beam splitters and two or more bandpass filter or monochromator to finish.In an embodiment the most special, utilization be the optical devices that comprise CCD camera, dichronic mirror and bandpass filter and lens that show as signal in the accompanying drawing 1.
