Abstract
Apparatuses, systems, method, reagents, and kits for conducting assays as well as process for their preparation are described. The apparatuses, systems, method, reagents, and kits may be employed in conducting automated analysis in a multi-well plate assay format.
Claims24
A light detection system adapted to read single-well addressable multi-well plates, comprising:
- a housing having a detection aperture;
- a light-tight connector;
- a light detector mounted to the detection aperture on the housing via the light-tight connector, the light detector comprising a lens system having a plurality of lenses, and a CCD camera having a CCD sensor, the lens system further comprising:
- a CCD camera window constructed from a long wave pass colored filter with an anti-reflection coating on a side of the CCD camera window proximate to a surface of the CCD sensor;
- and
- multi-layer coatings on a distal surface of the CCD camera window to suppress transmission of infrared wavelengths;
- wherein a number of the plurality of lenses in the lens system of the light detector is fewer than ten.
