Application: Assay apparatus and cartridge (Patent ID: US20230415147A1)
The patent filed by Fujifilm Holdings Corp. describes an assay apparatus for immunochromatographic assays, consisting of a loading part for a cartridge with an assay region, an illumination unit emitting light to illuminate the observation region, and a detection unit to detect the color development state. The apparatus allows for guiding incident light from the emission end portion to the opening portion through the outer shell of the cartridge, enabling optical detection of the color development state by the detection unit.
Additionally, the patent includes claims for features such as a suppression part in the emission end portion to prevent light leakage, the use of a semiconductor light source, and the design of the cartridge with translucent materials that have diffusibility to diffuse light. The cartridge also includes a light guide member to guide light from the emission end portion to the opening portion, ensuring efficient illumination and detection of the color development state. These features aim to improve the accuracy and efficiency of immunochromatographic assays by optimizing the illumination and detection process within the assay apparatus.
