Description
Technical Field
The application relates to the field of optical detection, in particular to a sample optical detection system and a blood cell analyzer.
Background
Currently, an optical detection system in a blood cell analyzer generally uses a laser as a light source, for example, a five-classification blood cell analyzer mostly uses a laser scattering principle to measure blood cells in a blood sample, and can count and classify the blood cells by using at least two measurement channels, especially three measurement channels.
In five-class applications, the RET channel requires simultaneous detection of particles such as platelets and red blood cells. In particular, for large particles (such as red blood cells), the amplitude of the main lobe signal is large, so the amplitude of the side lobe signal is also large, and may be close to the amplitude of the main lobe signal of small particles (such as platelets). Therefore, when large particles and small particles in blood cells are simultaneously detected due to interference of side lobe signals of the large particles, blood cell detection results cannot be accurately obtained.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present application. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
In the description of the present application, unless expressly stated or limited otherwise, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" are to be construed broadly and include, for example, fixed and removable connections or integral connections; can be mechanically or electrically connected; they may be connected directly or indirectly through intervening media, or they may be interconnected between two elements. The specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood in a specific case by those of ordinary skill in the art.
The flow diagrams depicted in the figures are merely illustrative and do not necessarily include all of the elements and operations/steps, nor do they necessarily have to be performed in the order depicted. For example, some operations/steps may be decomposed, combined or partially combined, so that the actual execution sequence may be changed according to the actual situation.
In the following, some embodiments of the present application will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, and features in the following examples and examples may be combined with each other without conflict.
First, referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of amplitudes of platelets and erythrocytes in forward scattered light obtained by using the prior art, where, as shown in fig. 1, amplitudes of main lobe signals of erythrocytes are generally larger, side lobe signals thereof are distributed on two sides of the main lobe signals, and amplitudes of the side lobe signals are generally smaller than the main lobe signals, but as can be seen from fig. 1, amplitudes of the side lobe signals of erythrocytes are closer to amplitudes of the main lobe signals of platelets, since a RET channel needs to detect particles such as platelets and erythrocytes at the same time, a blood cell detection result cannot be accurately obtained due to interference of the side lobe signals of large particles.
In the prior art, a side lobe signal can be blocked by using a small hole in a front light processing module (located between a light source device and a flow chamber), however, due to the limitation of the result, the light spot at the focus is necessarily small (for example, less than 10 um), and the diaphragm is also necessarily small, which greatly increases the difficulty of processing and assembling. Moreover, since the detection light emitted by the light source device is coherent light, the pinhole can significantly amplify the diffraction effect, and can form more side lobes. In the prior art, a diffusion sheet rotating at a high speed is added at a focus by utilizing laser equipment with higher power to convert coherent light into incoherent light, so that a side lobe can be eliminated, but the structure is complex and is not suitable for an instrument for classifying five blood cells.
Therefore, there is a need for a sample optical detection system, which can effectively eliminate the interference of the sidelobe signal of large particles in five-classification applications, so as to accurately obtain the blood cell detection result.
The application provides a sample optical detection system 100, which can effectively eliminate interference of a side lobe signal of a large particle, and can avoid interference of the side lobe signal of the large particle when detecting the large particle and the small particle in a blood cell, thereby accurately obtaining a blood cell detection result.
Fig. 3 is a schematic top view configuration diagram of the sample optical detection system, i.e., a top view of the sample optical detection system from a top view angle in the first direction. Referring to fig. 2 to 3, a sample optical detection system 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a light source device 10, a flow cell 20, a light processing device 30, and a light receiving device 40; the flow chamber 20 is configured to allow first particles in a sample to be detected to pass through along a first direction, where the sample to be detected may be a blood sample, and the blood sample includes multiple particles such as red blood cells, platelets, and reticulocytes, where the first particles are large particles in the blood sample, such as red blood cells, and particles with a particle diameter larger than a preset particle diameter may be considered as the large particles, and the preset particle diameter may be any value, and may be set according to an actual situation, and is generally 7um. The light source device 10 is configured to emit detection light in the optical axis direction, and irradiate the first particles passing through the flow cell 20 with the detection light, thereby generating scattered light and/or lateral fluorescence. The scattered light may include forward scattered light and side scattered light, among others.
The collecting mechanism is arranged between the flow chamber 20 and the light receiving device 40, and the collecting assembly 31 is used for collecting scattered light and/or side fluorescent light generated by the first particles irradiated by the light source device 10 through the flow chamber 20 and converging the scattered light and/or the side fluorescent light at the corresponding diaphragm assembly 32; wherein the first particles irradiated by the detection light through the flow cell 20 may generate forward scattered light and/or side fluorescent light, and specifically, the corresponding diaphragm assemblies 32 may be respectively disposed at the focal points corresponding to different light rays, thereby allowing the scattered light and/or the side fluorescent light to be converged at the corresponding diaphragm assemblies 32. Referring to fig. 5, the aperture assembly 32 is used for filtering the scattered light and/or the side fluorescent light of the first particle in the first position range a and allowing the scattered light and/or the side fluorescent light of the first particle in the second position range B to pass through. The first position range a and the second position range B are adjacently arranged in the first direction, which is the flowing direction of the first particles in the sample to be measured in the flow chamber 20. As shown in fig. 4, the arrow direction corresponding to the dotted line in fig. 4 is the first direction, that is, the flowing direction of the first particle in the sample to be tested, the light source device 10 emits light to irradiate the first particle passing through the flow chamber 20, specifically, the position where the light is directly incident on the flow chamber 20 is the flow chamber detection position, and in fact, since the first particle flows in the flow chamber along the first direction, the first particle is respectively located below the flow chamber detection position, above the flow chamber detection position and above the flow chamber detection position at-x seconds, 0 seconds and x seconds, so that the coherence of the light is generated during the test. When the light propagates, the scattered light and/or the fluorescent light corresponding to the first particle at-x second is located above the scattered light and/or the fluorescent light corresponding to the first particle at 0 second (the corresponding signal received by the light receiving device 40 is a side lobe signal), and the scattered light and/or the fluorescent light corresponding to the first particle at x second is located below the scattered light and/or the fluorescent light corresponding to the first particle at 0 second (the corresponding signal received by the light receiving device 40 is a side lobe signal), so that the signal of the first particle is a side lobe signal, a main peak signal, and a side lobe signal in sequence in the first direction. When the scattered light and/or the side fluorescent light of the first particle reaches the diaphragm assembly 32, the scattered light rays and/or the side fluorescent light rays of the first particle corresponding to-x seconds and x seconds are distributed on both sides of the scattered light rays and/or the side fluorescent light rays corresponding to x seconds in the first direction, respectively. In the embodiment of the present application, in order to mainly eliminate the influence of the first particles corresponding to the-x second and the x second on the signal generated at the 0 second detection bit (i.e., the main lobe signal of the first particle) at different positions, it is necessary to eliminate the signals generated at the-x second and the x second (i.e., the side lobe signal of the first particle). Therefore, the first position range a of the diaphragm assembly 32 corresponds to the position of the scattered light ray and/or the side fluorescent light ray on the diaphragm assembly 32 for x seconds, and the second position range B corresponds to the position of the scattered light ray and/or the side fluorescent light ray on the diaphragm assembly 32 generated at the detection position for 0 seconds, so that the first position range a and the second position range B are adjacently arranged in the first direction, for example, as shown in fig. 5, the first position range a and the second position range B are adjacently arranged at least in the first direction, and the first position range a may also be arranged around the second position range B. The first position range a is actually used for filtering the scattered light and/or the side fluorescence corresponding to the first particle side lobe signal, and the second position range B is actually used for passing the scattered light and/or the side fluorescence corresponding to the first particle main lobe signal. The first range of positions a is a non-light-transmissive portion of the diaphragm assembly 32 and the second range of positions B is a light-transmissive portion of the diaphragm assembly.
The light receiving device 40 is at least used for receiving the scattered light and/or the lateral fluorescence of the first particles in the second position range B and outputting corresponding electric signals. In particular, for forward scattered light, side scattered light or side fluorescent light, a light receiving device 40 may be arranged behind its corresponding light processing device 30, respectively, for receiving said scattered light and/or said side fluorescent light of the first particles in the second position range B and outputting corresponding electrical signals. The light receiving device 40 may be configured to detect the light intensity of the scattered light and output a corresponding electrical signal, for example, the forward scattering light channel may be configured to measure the volume of the blood cells, the lateral scattering light channel may be configured to measure the complexity of the surface of the blood cells, and the lateral fluorescence channel may be configured to measure the content of nucleic acid in the blood cells.
In the sample optical detection system 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the light source device 10 is used for collecting scattered light and/or lateral fluorescence generated by first particles passing through the flow chamber 20, and the scattered light and/or the lateral fluorescence are converged at the corresponding diaphragm assembly 32, so that the diaphragm assembly 32 filters the scattered light and/or the lateral fluorescence of the first particles in the first position range a, and the scattered light and/or the lateral fluorescence of the first particles in the second position range B pass through, and finally the light receiving device 40 is used for receiving the scattered light and/or the lateral fluorescence of the first particles in the second position range B and outputting a corresponding electrical signal, thereby effectively eliminating interference of a large-particle side lobe signal, and avoiding interference of a large-particle side lobe signal when detecting large particles and small particles in blood cells, so as to accurately obtain a blood cell detection result.
Since the light source device 10 irradiates the first particles passing through the flow cell 20 to generate forward scattered light and/or side fluorescent light, the diaphragm assembly 32 may be disposed on the optical path corresponding to the forward scattered light, the side scattered light and the side fluorescent light, and the following description will take the example of disposing the diaphragm assembly 32 on the optical path corresponding to the forward scattered light as an example.
In some embodiments, flow cell 20 is also used to pass second particles in the sample to be tested in the first direction. Wherein the second particles have a smaller diameter than the first particles. It should be noted that, as shown in fig. 6 (a), after the light passes through the flow chamber 20, a main-lobe signal and a side-lobe signal corresponding to the forward scattering light of the first particle are generated, and the main-lobe signal and the side-lobe signal corresponding to the forward scattering light of the first particle are collected by the collecting assembly 31. When the second position range B is small, the signal corresponding to each particle detected by the light receiving device is attenuated, especially for the second particle. Similarly, the second particle passes through the detection site after a certain time interval, and the corresponding forward scattered light is shown in fig. 6 (a), the solid line in fig. 6 (a) and 6 (b) indicates the forward scattered light of the first particle, and the dotted line in fig. 6 (a) and 6 (b) indicates the forward scattered light of the second particle. Since the size of the second particles is small (smaller than the size of the first particles), the forward scattering signal in the first direction is a diffuse spot (i.e., the scattering angle is large, see fig. 6 (a)), and therefore, in order to make the forward scattered light of the second particles pass through the diaphragm assembly 32 as much as possible, the diaphragm assembly 32 includes a first light transmitting portion 320, a first light blocking portion 321, a second light blocking portion 322, and two second light transmitting portions 323. As shown in fig. 6 (B), since the second position range B mainly corresponds to the position of the forward scattered light of the first particle on the diaphragm assembly 32, and the forward scattered light corresponding to the second particle is a diffuse spot (i.e. only part of the forward scattered light of the second particle passes through the second position range B, so that the signal intensity received by the light receiving device 40 to the second particle is low), the diaphragm assembly 32 needs to be arranged to block only the forward scattered light corresponding to the side lobe signal of the large particle, and to allow the forward scattered light corresponding to the small particle to pass through as much as possible. As shown in fig. 7, the diaphragm assembly 32 includes a first light-transmitting portion 320, a first light-blocking portion 321, a second light-blocking portion 322, and two second light-transmitting portions 323. The first light transmission part 320 is used for allowing the forward scattered light of the first particles in the second position range to pass through, and a region corresponding to the second position range B is a light transmission region of the first light transmission part 320; the first light-transmitting portion 320 may be a slit or a light-transmitting member. The first light blocking part 321 and the second light blocking part 322 are arranged at an interval in the first direction and located at two sides of the first light transmitting part 320, and both the first light blocking part 321 and the second light blocking part 322 are used for filtering forward scattered light of the first particles in a first position range a, where the first position range a is a light blocking area of the first light blocking part 321 and the second light blocking part 322; and the two second light transmitting portions 323 allow forward scattered light of the second particles to pass therethrough as much as possible.
The first transparent portion 320, the first light blocking portion 321, the second light blocking portion 322, and the two second transparent portions 323 are further provided with light blocking portions 327 on both sides in the second direction, and the light blocking portions 327 are used to block forward scattered light irradiated on both side edges of the diaphragm assembly 32.
The two second light transmitting portions 323 are spaced in the first direction, one of the two second light transmitting portions 323 is located on a side of the first light blocking portion 321 away from the first light transmitting portion 320, and the other is located on a side of the second light blocking portion 322 away from the first light transmitting portion 320, and the two second light transmitting portions 323 are used for allowing forward scattered light of the second particles to pass through. The light receiving device 40 is at least used for receiving the forward scattered light of the first particles in the second position range and the forward scattered light of the second particles and outputting corresponding electric signals. Accordingly, the corresponding main lobe signal of the forward scattered light of the first particle and the forward scattered light of the second particle can be caused to pass through the aperture assembly 32, and the light receiving device 40 can simultaneously receive the corresponding main lobe signal of the forward scattered light of the first particle and the forward scattered light of the second particle, so that large particles and small particles can be accurately detected, interference of side lobe signals of the large particles is avoided, and a blood cell detection result can be accurately obtained.
In some embodiments, the length of first light transmission portion 320 is less than a predetermined light transmission portion length value, which is determined according to the distance between the inner walls of flow cell 20 and the magnification of the forward scattered light. Since the side lobe signal of the blood cell detection result is mainly generated by the first particle, and the forward scattered light of the first particle is mainly concentrated in the range of 5 °, the focus of the ± 5 ° field angle can be regarded as the reference in consideration of the spherical aberration of the back light focus. Therefore, the length of the first light transmission portion 320 may be set to be smaller than a preset light transmission portion length value in consideration of the influence of spherical aberration.
The preset length of the light transmission part can be obtained by multiplying the distance between the inner wall of the flow cell 20 and the amplification factor of the forward scattered light. In general, the length of the first light transmission portion 320 may be smaller than the preset light transmission portion length value, and for example, the length of the first light transmission portion 320 may be 0.8 times the preset light transmission portion length value.
For example, if the distance between the inner walls of the flow cell 20 is 200um and the magnification of the forward scattered light is 5 times, the calculated preset light transmission portion length value is 1mm, and the length of the first light transmission portion 320 may be 800um.
In some embodiments, the width of the first light-transmitting portion 320 is smaller than a preset light-transmitting portion width value, which is determined according to the width of the corresponding main lobe signal in the forward scattered light of the first particles and the magnification of the forward scattered light. The width of the first light transmission portion 320 may be set to be smaller than a preset light transmission portion width value in consideration of the influence of the spherical aberration.
The preset light transmission part width value can be obtained by multiplying the width of the corresponding main lobe signal in the forward scattered light of the first particles and the amplification factor of the forward scattered light. Generally, the width of the first light transmission portion 320 may be smaller than the preset light transmission width value, and for example, the width of the first light transmission portion 320 may be 0.8 times the preset light transmission width value.
For example, if the width of the side lobe signal corresponding to the forward scattered light of the first particle is 20um and the amplification factor of the forward scattered light is 5 times, the preset light transmission portion length value is calculated to be 100um, and the length of the first light transmission portion 320 may be 80um.
In some embodiments, the widths of the first light blocking part 321 and the second light blocking part 322 are greater than a second preset light blocking part width value, and the second preset light blocking part width value is determined according to the width of the sidelobe signal corresponding to the forward scattered light of the first particle and the amplification factor of the forward scattered light. The widths of the first light blocking part 321 and the second light blocking part 322 may be set to be greater than a second preset light blocking part width value in consideration of the influence of the spherical aberration.
The second preset light blocking part width value can be obtained by multiplying the width of a side lobe signal corresponding to forward scattered light of the first particles and the amplification factor of the forward scattered light. Generally, the widths of the first light blocking portion 321 and the second light blocking portion 322 are only required to be greater than the second preset light blocking portion width value, and exemplarily, the widths of the first light blocking portion 321 and the second light blocking portion 322 may be 1.2 times the second preset light blocking portion width value.
For example, if the width of the side lobe signal corresponding to the forward scattered light of the first particle is 10um and the amplification factor of the forward scattered light is 5 times, the second preset light blocking portion width value is calculated to be 50um, and the widths of the first light blocking portion 321 and the second light blocking portion 322 may be 60um.
In some embodiments, flow cell 20 is also used to pass second particles in the sample to be tested in the first direction.
As shown in fig. 8, the diaphragm assembly 32 includes a third light blocking portion 324, a fourth light blocking portion 325, and a third light transmitting portion 326. The third light blocking part 324 and the fourth light blocking part 325 are arranged at intervals in the first direction, and the third light blocking part 324 and the fourth light blocking part 325 are used for filtering forward scattered light of the first particles in the first position range; the third light transmission part 326 is arranged around the third light blocking part 324 and the fourth light blocking part 325, and the third light transmission part 326 is used for enabling the forward scattered light of the first particles in the second position range to pass through and the forward scattered light of the second particles to pass through; the light receiving device 40 is at least used for receiving the forward scattered light of the first particles in the second position range and the forward scattered light of the second particles and outputting corresponding electric signals.
The third light transmission section 326 is further provided with light shielding sections 327 on both sides in the second direction, the light shielding sections 327 shielding forward scattered light irradiated on both side edges of the aperture block 32, and the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction and perpendicular to the optical axis direction.
In some embodiments, the third light-transmitting portion 326 may be formed on the substrate material by a photolithography process or an etching process.
The third light-transmitting portion 326 may be obtained by fabricating a mask on a substrate material, which may include a film, plastic, or glass. Specifically, the optical mask can be used to fabricate the third light-transmitting portion 326 by fabricating various functional patterns on a substrate material such as a film, plastic, or glass and precisely positioning the functional patterns for a structure for selective exposure of a photoresist coating.
In some embodiments, the length of each of third light stop 324 and fourth light stop 325 is greater than a first predetermined light stop length value, which is determined based on the sample flow width of the first particles in flow cell 20 and the magnification of the forward scattered light.
Wherein the first predetermined light-blocking section length value can be obtained by multiplying the sample flow width of the first particles in the flow cell 20 by the amplification factor of the forward scattered light. Generally, the lengths of the third light blocking part 324 and the fourth light blocking part 325 are only required to be greater than the first preset light blocking part length value, and for example, the lengths of the third light blocking part 324 and the fourth light blocking part 325 may be 1.2 times the first preset light blocking part length value.
For example, if the sample flow width of the first particle in the flow cell 20 is 35um and the magnification of the forward scattered light is 5 times, the first preset light blocking part length value is calculated to be 175um, and the lengths of the third light blocking part 324 and the fourth light blocking part 325 may be 210um.
The first light blocking portion 321, the second light blocking portion 322, the third light blocking portion 324, and the fourth light blocking portion 325 have the same width; the distance in the first direction between the third light blocking part 324 and the fourth light blocking part 325 is the same as the width of the first light transmitting part 320.
It should be noted that, since the diaphragm assemblies 32 are installed and adjusted in the micron order, the installation and adjustment difficulty is high, and the system stability is also greatly tested. Therefore, the difficulty of adjusting the diaphragm assembly 32 can be reduced by increasing the magnification of the forward scattered light, for example, changing the magnification of the forward scattered light from 5 to 20, thereby increasing the size of the light blocking portion and the light transmitting portion.
