Abstract
Description
しかし、蛍光分光器で取得可能な蛍光スペクトルは液体内の全て粒子が発する蛍光の平均値であるため、個々の粒子の蛍光スペクトルを取得することはできない。そこで近年単一の粒子の状態や種類を特定するために、単一の粒子の発する蛍光やラマン散乱光のスペクトルを取得する方法が報告されている。
(1)検体液の前処理
検査する検体液について適切な前処理を実施する。ここでの前処理とは、検体液から余計な物質を取り除き検査対象である微生物の純度を高くする作業である精製、検査対象である微生物の濃度を高くする作業である濃縮、検査対象である微生物に特定の蛍光物質を結合させる染色などの作業である。
(2)検体液の測定
前処理を終えた検体液を検体容器110に入れ、制御システムを介して単微生物分光器1を動作させる。単微生物分光器1は検体液を検知用微細流路112に送液する。検知用微細流路112に照射されている光は流路方向に沿って近赤外域から紫外域まで波長が変化するため、微生物120が分光した光121を通過する際には、微生物120は近赤外域から紫外域の波長の光を励起光とした蛍光を発する。
(3)微生物の特定
単微生物分光器1は、微生物120の前方散乱光の強度、微生物120の側方散乱光の強度、微生物120の二次元蛍光スペクトルを取得することができる。前方散乱光の強度は微生物120の大きさを示し、側方散乱光の強度は微生物120の内部構造の複雑さを示し、二次元スペクトルは微生物が保有する自家蛍光物質(NADH(Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide)など)や前処理にて導入された蛍光物質に対する染まりやすさを示す。これらの性質は微生物の種類によって異なり、微生物毎にデータベース化することによって、取得した前方散乱光の強度、側方散乱光の強度、二次元スペクトルの形状をデータベースと比較することにより微生物の種類の特定が可能になる(図5)。
