PARTICLE DETECTION DEVICE

摘要

A particle detection device detects a biological particle. The particle detection device includes a collection sheet, a collection unit, a heating unit, a fluorescence detection unit, and a movement mechanism. The collection unit introduces an airborne particle into the device so that the airborne particle is collected on the collection sheet. The heating unit heats the particle collected on the collection sheet so as to increase fluorescence emitted from the particle. The fluorescence detection unit detects the fluorescence emitted from the particle which is collected on the collection sheet. The movement mechanism moves the collection sheet. With the configuration as described above, the particle detection device with which a measurement time period and the cost of measurement can be reduced can be provided.

1. A particle detection device that detects a biological particle, the device comprising:
a sheet-shaped member; a collection unit that introduces an airborne particle into the device so that the airborne particle is collected on the sheet-shaped member; a heating unit that heats the particle collected on the sheet-shaped member so as to increase fluorescence emitted from the particle; a fluorescence detection unit that detects the fluorescence emitted from the particle which is collected on the sheet-shaped member; and a movement mechanism that moves the sheet-shaped member.
