Abstract

PURPOSE:To make it possible to perform simple, accurate observation and inspection by coloring hematobium parasite adult with a fluorescence coloring matter, illuminating the parasite adult with light which is transmitted through an interference filter that passes only a specified wavelength, and observing the parasite adult with a microscope through an interference filter which passes the excited light having the specified wavelength or higher. CONSTITUTION:The light from a halogen lamp 1 is transmitted through an interference filter 4 by way of a condenser lens 2 and a total reflection mirror 3. The filter 4 transmits only the specified wavelength of 430-500nm. A specimen, e.g. hematobium parasite adult or the like, is mounted on a specimen stage 5. The specimen 6 is excited with the light of 430 - 500nm. The specimen is colored by single coloring with a coloring matter which emits fluorescence of 500nm or higher, e.g. acridine or the like, or by double coloring with quinoline, probitium iodide or the like. An objective lens 7, a detecting interference filter and an eyepiece lens are arranged on the specimen stage 5. The detecting interference filter passes the wavelength of 520nm or higher.

Therefore, the conventional method requires the use of an expensive high-pressure mercury lamp, an FITC filter, an interference filter of 515 nm or more for detection, a high-quality microscope with a condenser lens between the light source and the data table, and the use of a high-quality microscope for staining the specimen. Giemser staining is performed using a specific fluorescent dye.

For this reason, the microscope used is expensive, and since Giemser staining is used, there is little color difference between staining blood and schistosome parasites.In particular, the nucleus does not emit green light, so it is difficult to clearly distinguish it, and dirt and other substances are stained together. The condition is often misdiagnosed and left untreated.

For this reason, there has been a problem that no progress has been made in testing in areas where schistosocytic parasites are prevalent, particularly in developing countries, and as a result, no countermeasures have been taken.

Since a halogen lamp is used as the light source, it is inexpensive and easy to operate, and 4301■ ~ is used as a specific fluorescent dye for dyeing.
Because it is excited by 500n@ light and uses a substance that emits fluorescence of 500nm or more, the cytoplasm of the parasite is stained red and the nucleus green, making the outline of the specimen clear and further identifying the parasite by the presence of the nucleus. This makes diagnosis easier and eliminates errors in diagnosis.

Moreover, the specific wavelength of the interference filter for irradiation is 440 to 50.
0nvi, the specific wavelength of the detection interference filter is 520n
Since we are using a material that transmits wavelengths of W or more, 44
The cytoplasm of the parasite turns red at a specific wavelength of 0 to 500gm,
Because the nucleus is excited in green, it should be observed at a wavelength of 520n or higher; the object to be inspected can be more clearly distinguished, accurate inspection can be performed even with a low-magnification microscope, and a condenser lens is not required, making the device inexpensive. That's fine.
