发明名称 READER DEVICE FOR LUMINESCENT IMMUNOASSAYS
摘要 The present disclosure, among other things, describes a reader system for analyzing one or more analytes in a fluid sample, comprising a casing (204) with at least one port (201) leading to a holster (301) which is configured to receive a cartridge (107) comprising a vertically oriented immunoassay device for analyzing one or more analytes in a fluid sample, an optical system (121) with excitation optics comprising a light source (302) and an excitation lens (305) configured to transmit light from the light source (302) and thereby excite a region of the vertically oriented immunoassay device when a cartridge (107) is placed in the holster (301), and collection optics comprising a photosensor (306) and a collection lens (307) configured to collect emitted light from the vertically oriented immunoassay device when a cartridge (107) is placed in the holster (301), an electromechanical motor system (106) configured to move the holster (301) in a vertical direction with respect to the optical system (121) so that the optical system (121) can interrogate different regions of the vertically oriented immunoassay device when a cartridge (107) is placed in the holster (301), and one or more digital processors (104a, 104b) and associated electronics configured to receive data from and control the optical system (121) and to control the electromechanical motor system (106).

主权项 1. A reader system for analyzing one or more analytes in a fluid sample, comprising: a. a casing with at least one port leading to a holster which is configured to receive a cartridge comprising a vertically oriented immunoassay device for analyzing one or more analytes in a fluid sample; b. an optical system with excitation optics comprising a light source and an excitation lens configured to transmit light from the light source and thereby excite a region of the vertically oriented immunoassay device when a cartridge is placed in the holster, and collection optics comprising a photosensor and a collection lens configured to collect emitted light from the vertically oriented immunoassay device when a cartridge is placed in the holster; c. an electromechanical motor system configured to move the holster in a vertical direction with respect to the optical system so that the optical system can interrogate different regions of the vertically oriented immunoassay device when a cartridge is placed in the holster; and d. one or more digital processors and associated electronics configured to receive data from and control the optical system and to control the electromechanical motor system.
