DIAGNOSTIC INSTRUMENT AND METHOD FOR NORMAL CELL AND CANCER CELL USING THE UV ABSORPTION SPECTROSCOPY

摘要

A device and a method for diagnosing normal cells or cancer cells are provided to prevent destruction of sample cells through an optical diagnosis technique, only require a single sample cell for the diagnosis and very accurately perform the cancer cell diagnosis. A device for diagnosing normal cells and cancer cells comprises a mount(110) in which a sample cell(10) to be diagnosed is mounted; a UV light source(120) which outputs UV light and applies the light through an objective lens(122) applied to the sample cell; a sensor portion(130) which measures a cell pass-through light source which is outputted after the UV light from the UV light source is applied to the sample cell and then passes through the sample cell; and a spectrum outputting portion(140) which outputs spectrum of the cell pass-through light source measured by the sensor portion. A method for diagnosing a normal cell or a cancer cell by using UV absorption spectrum comprises the steps of: (a) outputting UV light applied by a UV light source to a sample cell; (b) measuring a cell pass-through light source which is outputted by the UV light outputted from the UV light source being applied to the sample cell and then passing through the sample cell; and (c) outputting spectrum of the cell pass-through light source measured by the step(b).
