filling a solution to be tested (the solution is provided with fluorescent molecules, is added with fluorescent molecules or is capable of generating fluorescent molecules or precursors or substrate molecules of the fluorescent molecules in the reaction process) into a reaction test tube 7, plugging a plug 16, and then installing the reaction test tube 7 in a test tube installation hole 6; tilting the mounting 5 by 5 ° -45 ° (note: tilt angle is only useful when heat convection is performed) if necessary adjusting the reaction tube 7; starting a real-time monitoring program, sending a control instruction through a computer to control the detector 2 to start working, heating a solution in the reaction test tube 7 through the upper heater 10 and the lower heater 11, and when the temperature is continuously increased, performing thermal expansion on the reaction test tube 7, realizing reversible locking with the lower heater 11, and conducting heat to the reaction test tube 7 through the upper heater 10 and the lower heater 11; when the solution in the reaction tube 7 generates a temperature gradient, the solution realizes more effective heat convection;
Meanwhile, the MCU module controls the output power of the upper heater 10 and the lower heater 11 in real time according to the instruction, thereby controlling the working temperatures of the upper heater and the lower heater and transmitting the corresponding temperatures to the reaction test tube 7; wherein, the temperature of the upper heater 10 and the lower heater 11 can be adjusted to different temperatures according to the reaction requirement, and the actual temperature is simultaneously fed back to the computer through the corresponding thermistor;
when the detector 2 receives a light-emitting instruction from a computer, the excitation light source 8 is lightened according to the instruction to irradiate the solution in the reaction test tube 7, the solution in the reaction test tube 7 is irradiated by the excitation light source 8 to emit fluorescence, and the fluorescence is respectively transmitted to the upper photoelectric detector 12 and the lower photoelectric detector 14 through the corresponding upper solid light guide 13 and the lower solid light guide 15; when the upper photoelectric detector 12 and the lower photoelectric detector 14 detect fluorescent signals sent by the solution in the reaction test tube 7, voltage or current analog signals corresponding to the fluorescent signals are directly output, the analog signals are converted into amplified electric signals through the optical signal amplification module, the amplified electric signals correspond to the fluorescent signals with corresponding intensity, and the amplified electric signals are fed back to the computer through the MCU module in real time, so that the optical signals are read in real time, and the results are displayed in real time.
Wherein, the computer can select different temperatures and irradiation time of the excitation light source 8 according to different reaction solutions, and feed back the conditions of the solution for reaction in different space positions in real time; the lighting time of the excitation light source 8 is adjusted between 1 millisecond and 1000 milliseconds; the interval period of each lighting of the excitation light source is between 1 second and 5 minutes, and the lighting interval period can be adjusted according to different reaction substances; the acquisition of the optical signal by the photoelectric detection component is completed in the process after the excitation light source 8 is lightened.

Referring to FIG. 12, the process of detecting nucleic acid amplification is as follows:
filling a reaction solution containing a mixed nucleic acid sample, a chemical reagent for nucleic acid amplification and a nucleic acid fluorescent dye (intercalating dye) or a fluorescent-labeled molecular probe (fluorescent dye labeled molecular probe) into a reaction tube 7; wherein the nucleic acid sample may be taken from RNA or DNA of an animal or plant cell, a bacterium, a fungus or a virus; when the nucleic acid sample is an RNA sample, the RNA is transcribed into complementary DNA, i.e.: cDNA (cDNA and DNA can be amplified in a test tube to achieve the aim of detection); nucleic acid amplification using enzymatic methods, including isothermal amplification, such as RPA (Recombinase polymerase amplification), LAMP (Loop-mediated isothermal amplification), and variable temperature amplification, such as PCR (Polymerase chain reaction); in the variable temperature nucleic acid amplification process, the temperature of the liquid needs to be controlled, so that the liquid is subjected to temperature circulation between 45 ℃ and 98 ℃;
When the photoelectric detection component detects that the solution generates fluorescent signals released by nucleic acid fluorescent dye or fluorescent labeling molecular probes, the intensity of the fluorescent signals generated by the amplification reaction is proportional to the amount of amplified DNA products (the process is a reaction kinetics process which is determined by variable factors such as temperature, time and the like, and the initial copy number of target nucleic acid in a raw sample can be estimated through reaction kinetics data, so that the method has great significance in medical diagnosis, public health and biological detection industries);
determining a dissolution curve, and reducing the temperature of a solution at the bottom of the reaction test tube 7 to about 45 ℃ after the amplification reaction is finished, wherein DNA molecules are combined into double-stranded molecules, combined with nucleic acid fluorescent dye and then emit stronger fluorescence; to determine the dissolution profile, the upper heater 10 and the lower heater 11 start to heat at a slow speed, and time and temperature variables are recorded by a computer, and when the temperature variables are adjusted, changes of optical signals are recorded in real time by the lower or upper photodetectors 14, and the relationship between the temperature and fluorescent signals is displayed by the computer; with increasing temperature, the double-stranded DNA molecules are dissolved into single-stranded molecules, leading to a decrease in fluorescence (this process is related to the length of the DNA molecule chain, i.e. the dissolution temperature characteristic of a DNA molecule of a certain length); the data processing is carried out by a computer to obtain the dissolution point of the amplified DNA molecule, and the dissolution curve is one method for confirming the accuracy of DNA amplification because the dissolution point or the dissolution curve is related to the length of the molecule chain.
Another method for determining the dissolution profile is to maintain the temperature of the solution at the bottom of the reaction tube at a high temperature (90℃to 98 ℃) and raise the temperature of the upper liquid to not more than 95℃by an upper heater after the completion of the nucleic acid amplification reaction, at which time most of the double-stranded DNA molecules are dissolved into single-stranded DNA molecules; then controlling the upper heater and the lower heater to start to cool down at a low speed, and recording time and temperature variables through a computer; when the temperature variable is regulated, the change of the optical signal is recorded in real time through a lower photoelectric detector or an upper photoelectric detector, and the relation between the temperature and the fluorescent signal is displayed through a computer; as the temperature decreases, single-stranded DNA molecules will bind to double-stranded molecules, causing an increase in fluorescence, and the computer is used to perform data processing to determine the dissolution point or dissolution profile of the amplified DNA molecules.

Every 10 seconds, the signal is read-times, fig. 14 is a temperature change graph, T1 is the upper heater temperature, T2 is the lower heater temperature change graph, the ordinate is the temperature parameter, the relatively high value is the relatively low temperature, such as the number of steps 350 is 60 ℃, and the number of steps 185 is 95 ℃; the horizontal axis is time (minutes).
The data shown is a nucleic acid amplification experiment for principle verification. The reaction tube contains a reaction solution containing respiratory Polynucleosis virus (RSV) RNA to be tested, primers required for nucleic acid amplification, reverse transcriptase and DNA polymerase, buffer solution and nucleic acid fluorescent dye, etc. RNA was first reverse transcribed into cDNA (first seven minutes) and then DNA amplified using the same tube. As shown in FIG. 13, by controlling the temperature gradient of the reaction tube, the reaction solution is convected in the reaction tube, and the nucleic acid is subjected to temperature cycling, thereby realizing PCR-like amplification. In the simultaneous monitoring of 4 reaction cuvettes with the device according to the invention, the reaction status information associated with 520nm wavelengths (V1, V2, V3, V4) and 530nm wavelengths (V5, V6, V7, V8) is read from each reaction cuvette at a time point and displayed. The corresponding curves for the reaction tubes are: reaction tube one (V1, V2), reaction tube two (V2, V6), reaction tube three (V3, V7), reaction tube four (V4, V8). As can be seen from FIG. 13, when the liquid temperature is low, the reaction tube emits nonspecific fluorescence (first few minutes). The nonspecific fluorescent signal decreases (ten to twenty-five minutes) when the temperature increases, and the specific fluorescent signal begins to increase (twenty-five minutes later) when the DNA is amplified to a certain amount. By similar operations, the characteristics (source, genetic structure, number of target molecules, etc.) of the target molecules in the original sample can be detected.

The chemiluminescent immunoassay comprises two parts, namely an immunoreaction system and a chemiluminescent system, wherein the chemiluminescent system is formed into an excited intermediate by catalyzing a chemiluminescent substance (luminescent substrate) through a catalyst (enzyme) and oxidizing an oxidant, photons are emitted simultaneously when the excited intermediate returns to a stable ground state, and the light quantum yield can be measured by using a luminescent signal measuring instrument. The immunoreaction system is to directly or indirectly mark the substances (markers or enzymes) related to the luminous system on the antigen or antibody, and the enzyme quantity in the luminous system is directly proportional to the antigen quantity after immunoreaction and washing, so that when the enzyme acts on the luminous substrate, the luminous quantity is also directly proportional to the antigen quantity.

Other methods may not require an excitation light source other than a fluorescence immunoassay method. Specific applications include, but are not limited to, the following:

Under the control of different variables (temperature and time), the change of luminescence dynamics is observed in real time; the luminous rate is influenced by temperature, the temperature gradient can enable the liquid to be continuously mixed, the luminous reaction is more uniform, the quantity of the antigen, the quality of the luminous substrate, the stability of the luminous substrate and other indexes can be determined according to the luminous rate, and the kinetic method is more accurate than the detection of the endpoint luminous quantity.
b. The fluorescent resonance energy transfer method detects the affinity and the binding stability between the antigen and the antibody; fluorescence resonance energy transfer refers to the fact that when two fluorescent chromophores are close enough, when a donor molecule absorbs photons with a certain frequency, the two fluorescent chromophores are excited to a higher electron energy state, and before the electrons return to a ground state, energy transfer to an adjacent acceptor molecule is achieved through dipole interaction (namely energy resonance transfer occurs). Antibodies are the core reagents for immune reactions, and their specificity and affinity determine immune reaction specificity and sensitivity. The conventional immune response is a sandwich method, i.e., the capture and detection antibodies are used to recognize the same antigen. When the capture antibody and the detection antibody are labeled with fluorescein, respectively, which can perform fluorescence energy transfer, the affinity of the antigen-antibody can be estimated by detecting the kinetics of fluorescence resonance energy transfer (relationship between the antibody concentration and the luminescence rate).
(2) Enzymatic reaction kinetic analysis including, but not limited to, nucleic acid detection (isothermal or thermocycling).
(3) Molecular conformation and configuration analysis, including but not limited to DNA melting curves.
