[0001] The present invention relates to an optical assembly comprising a sample vessel positioned in a direct light path between a light source and a light detector, in manner to enable transmission of light through the vessel; a method for detection of light transmission through sample contained within the vessel; an apparatus comprising the assembly; more particularly an apparatus for sample analysis for example for high throughput screening (HTS) or profiling or assays, such as enzyme assays; and uses thereof in the pharmaceutical, biomedical and bioscience, agrochemical, veterinary, materials and like fields, for detection, analysis, characterisation and quantification or the like of samples contained in a vessel, and optionally further collecting separated components thereof; in particular in combinatorial chemistry; in metabolomics, proteomics or genomics, assay and high throughput analysis applications, typically high sensitivity analyses, separation and/or quantification studies and for sample separation for example chromatography or electrophoresis, in particular column chromatography, capillary electrophoresis with real time or post separation analysis.
[0002] UV absorbance, fluorescence and mass spectrometry are key technologies used in separation science for analysing species in samples. A particularly useful methodology is to look at a sample population separated by capillary electrophoresis with fluorophore labelling and fluorescence imaging, for quantification, and MS for characterising molecules of interest.
[0003] U.S. Pat. No. 5,582,705 discloses an apparatus and system for laser induced fluorescence (LIF) detection in a multiplexed capillary electrophoresis system. A coherent beam incident on the capillary array and emitted fluorescent light are typically perpendicular to each other in order to reduce background noise due to light scattering. A transparent portion in each capillary wall defines a transparent path extending through the array, perpendicular to the capillary. A 2D image array detector such as a charge-coupled device (CCD), preferably a charge-injection device (CID), is positioned to detect emission, and an imaging lens interposed between the capillary array and the image array detector, to optically couple the pixels to the capillary. The imaging lens may be any lens capable of transforming an image onto the pixels of the image array detector, such as a camera lens or a condenser lens. Coupling is shown in FIG. 4, of U.S. Pat. No. 5,582,705 in which every second pixel is coupled to a sidewall of the capillary and every pixel in between is coupled to an interior portion.

Thanks mate ....... Hey I missed that WOW then an RNS with good news might be coming sooner than we all think !
StarkNight, on one of the diagrams, says ce ?
Good find: starknight
An optical apparatus and method comprising a light source, an array detector for area imaging and an optical cell assembly. The optical cell assembly comprises a chamber which is arranged to receive a sample of a material including an analyte, a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet coupled to the chamber. A fluid dissolution medium stream passes through the chamber such that the sample can dissolve into the dissolution medium. The chamber is in at least one light path created between the light source and the array detector. The array detector comprises a two dimensional array of detector locations arranged to provide an output signal indicative of the light absorbance of the analyte within the chamber such that the output of the array detector is indicative of the concentration profile of the analyte near the surface of the sample.
Look at item number 4 could this be a diagram of our 2 minute test device ?

An optical assembly comprising a light source, at least one sample vessel and a detector, the at least one vessel being positioned in a light path or paths created between the source and the detector in manner to enable transmission of light through the vessel wherein the light source is adapted to provide a beam of substantially collimated light, the detector comprises a plurality of detector locations and the vessel comprises a wall and core of relative shape and dimensions adapted to contain a sample for detection and to define at least two spatially separated transmitted light paths, a first wall path which enters and exits the vessel walls only, spatially separated from a second core path which enters and exits the vessel walls and additionally the vessel core, wherein the spatially separated wall and core paths are coupled to individual detector locations on the detector, a module or clip-on device therefor, method for detection and uses thereof.
I suspect that this is some of the technology integrated into our Paraytec 2-minute test. There is a lot of information on the other items 1 to 4 all highly advanced science of which we are proud to be invested at the FRONTIER!
It is great to know that Paraytec’s patents are in place so our IP is protected meaning potential global sales and earnings.
Thoughts anyone ?
