Description
本発明は、細胞の生命力を検出すること、つまり、複数の細胞が生きている(生命力がある)か死んでいる(生命力がない)かを判定することに関する。
[背景技術]
試料内で生きている、つまり生存能力のある複数の細胞の存在を検出する従来の方法は、通例は試料を培地で培養し、複数の細胞の繁殖の有無やその繁殖程度を判定することを要する。この種の試験は、試料内の細菌の存在やその量を検出する場合には一般的である。試料を培養する際に求められることとして、試料の培養が可能になるのにかなりの遅れが発生し、結果が得られるまでにほぼ数日程度かかってしまうこともあり得る。
[発明の概要]
第1の態様に従って、試料内の複数の細胞の生命力を検出する方法が提供されており、本方法は、
蛍光色素を試料に加えて、
試料の一部を電極対の間にある試験用空間内に配置して、
電極対の間に電圧を印加して、試料の一部にわたって電界を発生させ、
試験用空間を照光して、
電圧を印加してからの時間にわたって、試験用空間からの蛍光反応を測定して、
時間の間の蛍光反応の変化次第で、試料内の複数の細胞を生きていると検出することを含む。
試料を収容する試料ホルダであって、電極対を試験用空間の向かい合う側に備えている試料ホルダと、
電極対に接続されている電圧源と、
試験用空間を照光するように配置された光源と、
光源が照光すると、試験用空間からの蛍光反応を検出するように配置された光検出器と、を備えている。
試料と蛍光色素を収容している試験用空間内にある電極対の間に電圧を印加して、試料の一部にわたって電界を発生させ、
試験用空間を照光して、
電圧を印加してからの時間にわたって、試験用空間からの蛍光反応を測定して、
時間の間の蛍光反応の変化次第で、試料内の複数の細胞を生きていると検出することを含む。
外部電界(ΔΨ)による膜電位の変化は、シュワンの等式(Schwan equation)ΔΨ=1.5rEcosθによって定量的に説明される。ここで、rは理想的な球状細胞の半径、Eは外部電界の電界強度、θは電界との角度である。
