Specimen optical information recognizing device and its recognizing method

An apparatus for recognizing optical information from a specimen, comprising:

• a specimen containing portion for containing a specimen to be measured;
• a specimen measuring portion having a photodetecting portion for collecting optical information from the specimen;
• an optical waveguide for transmitting a light between said specimen containing portion and said specimen measuring portion;
• and
• a measurement auxiliary liquid interposed between a tip of said optical waveguide and the specimen.

An apparatus for recognizing optical information from a specimen, comprising:

• a specimen containing portion for containing a specimen to be measured, said specimen containing portion having a first surface with which the specimen finally contained therein comes in contact and other surfaces with which the specimen finally contained therein does not come in contact, wherein the first surface has an affinity for the specimen equal to or larger than the other surfaces;
• a specimen measuring portion comprising a photodetecting portion for collecting optical information from the specimen;
• and
• an optical waveguide for transmitting a light between said specimen containing portion and said specimen measuring portion.

A method for recognizing optical information from a specimen, comprising steps of:

• housing a specimen to be measured in a specimen containing section;
• collecting optical information from the specimen via an optical waveguide under two or more measurement conditions;
• and
• analyzing the specimen based on the collected optical information.

A method for recognizing optical information from a specimen, comprising steps of:

• housing a specimen to be measured in a specimen containing portion;
• transmitting a first optical information from the specimen through air so as to collect the first optical information and transmitting a second optical information from the specimen not through air so as to collect the second optical information;
• and
• analyzing the specimen based on the first and second optical information.
