Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4846152
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A combined fluorometer and thermal cycler, comprising:
a plurality of low heat-generating light sources (20);
a plurality of containers (32) having caps; means for positioning said plurality of containers into optical communication with said plurality of light sources (20), wherein each of said light sources (20) communicates with one of said containers;
a thermally controlled base in close contact with said plurality of containers and a thermally controlled cover having a plurality of apertures, wherein each of said apertures corresponds with one of said containers (32) and expands outward from said cap of said corresponding container (32);
a first optical path means for guiding light from said plurality of light sources to said plurality of containers;
an optical signal sensing means (36) in optical communication with said plurality of containers (32);
a second optical path means for guiding emitted light from any sample in said plurality of containers (32) to said optical signal sensing means (36); and
programmable control means (500) for controlling the temperature of said plurality of containers (32) according to a selected protocol.
