EMISSION INTENSITY MEASURING DEVICE

摘要

An emission intensity measuring device includes a light receiving unit that is disposed opposed to a biochip having a plurality of compartments in which a sample is housed, and includes a plurality of light receiving elements that are arranged, and a determining section that determines a weighting rate of each of the light receiving elements based on a noise characteristic of the light receiving element, acquired in advance. The emission intensity measuring device further includes a multiplying section that multiplies the output of each of the light receiving elements by the weighting rate to calculate a weighted output of each of the light receiving elements, and an adding section that adds the weighted outputs of the light receiving elements opposed to a respective one of the compartments.

1. An emission intensity measuring method comprising:
receiving, by a plurality of light receiving elements that are opposed to a compartment of a plurality of compartments of a biochip, light emitted by a sample housed in the compartment; determining a weighting rate of each of the plurality of light receiving elements; multiplying an output of each of the plurality of light receiving elements by the corresponding weighting rate to increase and decrease outputs of the plurality of light receiving elements in accordance with noise characteristic of each of the plurality of light receiving elements; calculating a weighed output of each of the plurality of light receiving elements based on a result of the multiplication; and adding the weighted output of the plurality of light receiving elements arranged opposed to the compartment to determine a received-light intensity for the plurality of light receiving elements.
