Abstract
The present invention provides a method for determining a success or failure of a measurement of a target particle contained in a measurement sample. The method includes: detecting the target particle and other particle other than the target particle in the measurement sample; and determining the success or failure of the measurement of the target particle based on at least a detection result of the other particle.
Claims20
A method for determining a success or failure of a measurement of a target particle contained in a measurement sample, the method comprising:
- detecting the target particle and other particle other than the target particle in the measurement sample;
- and
- determining the success or failure of the measurement of the target particle based on at least a detection result of the other particle.
A sample measurement device that measures a target particle contained in a measurement sample, comprising:
- a detection unit configured to detect the target particle and other particle other than the target particle in the measurement sample;
- and
- a control unit configured to determine whether a measurement of the target particle is successful based on at least the detection result of the other particle.
A method for determining a success or failure of a measurement, comprising:
- detecting particles in a measurement sample;
- calculating an estimated value related to the number of the particles expected to be detected in the measurement based on the number of the particles detected per unit time;
- calculating a value related to a detection rate based on the estimated value and the number of the particles actually detected in the measurement;
- and
- determining the success or failure of the measurement of the particles based on the value related to the detection rate.
