DEVICE FOR DIGITAL READING OF QUICK TESTS

摘要

A device for photometric qualification of lateral flow quick tests by means of camera imaging includes an arrangement which manages with a pinhole aperture with a slot-shaped opening, which has been integrated into the basic housing body, in which the imaging has been optimised with a view to diffraction, imaging scale and integration behaviour and in which the illumination and all the components are arranged in a housing which can be produced at a reasonable price, with the result that the quantifiability of customary LFA quick tests is made possible for the user with a sufficient precision. The device can transmit test-specific data automatically and contact-free with the help of electromagnetic waves via a transponder (RFID) and is thus suited for various tests and for quantification of LFA's. The device may work autonomously with an internal microcontroller (embedded system). The figures can be stored and optionally transmitted to a computer via an interface.

主权项

1. A device for digital evaluation for quick tests, comprising: a housing body and an added part, said added part containing a source of light, optical components for the imaging, a CCD line as a reception element, an electronic circuit on a circuit board, a display component, an electrical interface for data transmission, an imaging device for the quick test, a current supply and an operating element, said operating element being a switch: and a transmission/reception unit for contact-free loading and storage of information wherein
optical imaging is able to be conducted through a pinhole aperture with a slot-shaped opening, arranged such that the slot is parallel to a control line and a test line, and wherein optical components for the imaging are integrated in the basic housing body.
