摘要

Device for reading a biochip comprising at least one line of discrete zones comprises a light source for illuminating the biochip in the form of a strip covering at least one line of discrete zones and a detector for detecting the fluorescence emitted by the biochip. An Independent claim is also include for a biochip comprising: (a) at least one line of discrete zones, each containing a substance capable of emitting fluorescent light when the surface of the chip is illuminated; and (b) a series of synchronization zones permitting movement of the chip and fluorescence detection to be synchronized.
