背景技术Background technique
流式细胞仪是集光子、电子学、流体力学、细胞化学、生物学、免疫学以及激光和计算机等多门学科技术为一体的先进科学技术设备，它被广泛应用于临床医学、细胞学、生物学、微生物学、制药学、生殖学等领域。是现代科学研究中的先进仪器之一，被誉为实验室的“CT”。它对快速直线流动状态中的单列细胞或生物颗粒进行逐个、多参数、快速的定性、定量分析或分选的技术，具有检测速度快、测量参数多、采集数据大、分析全面、分选纯度高、方法灵活等特点，在各学科中发挥着重要的作用。Flow cytometer is an advanced scientific and technical equipment integrating photons, electronics, fluid mechanics, cytochemistry, biology, immunology, laser and computer and other disciplines. It is widely used in clinical medicine, cytology, Biology, microbiology, pharmacy, reproductive science and other fields. It is one of the advanced instruments in modern scientific research, known as the "CT" of the laboratory. It performs one-by-one, multi-parameter, rapid qualitative and quantitative analysis or sorting technology on single cells or biological particles in a fast linear flow state. It has fast detection speed, multiple measurement parameters, large collection data, comprehensive analysis, and sorting purity. High, flexible methods and other characteristics play an important role in various disciplines.
使用传统的流式细胞检测技术，研究人员可以分析成千上万个细胞，获得每个细胞的散射光信号和荧光信号的数值，从而得到细胞群体的各种统计数据，并可以找到稀有的细胞亚群。但是，传统流式细胞检测技术仍然存在局限，那就是获得的细胞信息很有限。细胞对研究人员来说，只是散点图上的一个点，而不是真实的细胞图像，缺乏细胞形态学、细胞结构及亚细胞水平信号分布的相关信息。要想获得细胞图像，研究人员就必须使用显微镜进行观察，但显微镜能够观察的细胞数量是非常有限的，很难提供细胞群体的量化与统计数据。因此，使用传统的细胞分析技术，我们就只能面对这样的两难选择，目前没有一种技术可以既提供细胞群体的统计数据，又获得细胞图像。Using traditional flow cytometry technology, researchers can analyze tens of thousands of cells and obtain the numerical value of scattered light signal and fluorescent signal of each cell, so as to obtain various statistical data of cell population and find rare cells subgroup. However, traditional flow cytometry technology still has limitations, that is, the obtained cell information is very limited. For researchers, a cell is just a point on a scatter plot, not a real cell image, lacking information about cell morphology, cell structure, and signal distribution at the subcellular level. To obtain cell images, researchers must use a microscope to observe, but the number of cells that can be observed by a microscope is very limited, and it is difficult to provide quantitative and statistical data on cell populations. Therefore, using traditional cell analysis techniques, we can only face such a dilemma. Currently, there is no technique that can provide both statistical data of cell populations and obtain cell images.

The first laser 110 and the second laser 120 arranged vertically in the laser radiation unit pass through the half-transparent mirror 130 at an angle of 45 degrees to the optical axis, and pass through the first cylindrical lens 140 and the second After cylindrical lens 150 and single lens 160 are reshaped, an elliptical light spot is formed to focus on the sample in the flow detection cell 200 in front, thereby generating scattered light and fluorescence. 150 and the single lens 160 are on the same axis; in the direction of 270 degree angle with the beam irradiation direction of the laser 110, the side scattered light and the excited fluorescence are collected by the objective lens 320 of large numerical aperture after being gathered by the condenser lens 310, and the objective lens 320 The aperture is generally 0.68 mm, and after being collected by the single lens 330 and collimated by the collimator lens 340, a parallel light beam is formed to be vertically incident on the holographic narrow-band filter 350, the condenser lens 310, the objective lens group 320, the single lens 330, The collimating lens 340 and the holographic narrow-band filter 350 are located on the same axis, and are located in a direction forming an angle of 270 degrees with the beam irradiation direction of the first laser 110 . The imaging lens 360 and the multi-channel CCD 370 are located on the same axis and form an angle of 90 degrees with the axis of the objective lens 320. The side scattered light and the light signal of the excited fluorescence are split into different wave bands after being split by the holographic narrow-band filter 350.

本实用新型的成像光束是侧向散射光以及荧光信号，利用荧光显微成像技术，对血细胞进行成像，能清楚的观察到血细胞的内部结构以及微小颗粒的形貌特征，同时能提供对亚细胞水平信号的分析。在流式细胞术测量中，常用的是两种散射方向的散射光测量：1.前向角，即0度角散射FSC；2.侧向散射SSC，又称90度角散射，这时所说的角度指的是激光束照射方向与收集散射光信号的光电倍增管轴向方向之间大致所成的角度。侧向散射光的测量主要用来获取有关细胞内部精细结构的颗粒性质的有关信息。侧向散射光虽然也与细胞的形状和大小有关，但它对细胞膜、胞质、核膜的折射率更为敏感，也能对细胞质内较大颗粒给出灵敏反映，SSC用于检测细胞内部结构属性，可以获得有关细胞内超微结构和颗粒性质的参数。当细胞携带荧光素标记物，通过激光照射区时，细胞内的荧光物质吸收符合其波长范围的光能量后，内部的电子受激发上升到高能级，然后迅速衰落回到基态，释放过剩能量成为光子，产生代表细胞内不同物质、不同波长的荧光信号，这些信号以细胞为中心，向空间360 度立体角发射，产生散射光和荧光信号，由于侧向散射光以及荧光，的强度很微弱，为了满足本实用新型成像系统的要求，必须对侧向散射光和荧光进行聚集，使其与准直系统匹配，提高荧光和侧向散射光的信号强度。侧向散射光的成像能够很好的反应细胞内部的复杂结构，这样我们就具有了细胞结构的图像，受激发而产生的荧光的细胞成像能够用于对亚细胞水平信号分布的相关分析。通过对这类荧光信号的检测和定量分析就能了解所研究细胞参数的存在与定量。The imaging light beam of the utility model is side scattered light and fluorescent signal. Using fluorescent microscopic imaging technology to image blood cells, the internal structure of blood cells and the morphology characteristics of tiny particles can be clearly observed. Analysis of horizontal signals. In flow cytometry measurement, scattered light measurement in two scattering directions is commonly used: 1. Forward angle, that is, 0-degree angle scattering FSC; 2. Side-scattering SSC, also known as 90-degree angle scattering, at this time The said angle refers to the approximate angle formed between the irradiation direction of the laser beam and the axial direction of the photomultiplier tube which collects the scattered light signal. The measurement of side scattered light is primarily used to obtain information about the granular nature of fine structures inside cells. Although side scattered light is also related to the shape and size of the cell, it is more sensitive to the refractive index of the cell membrane, cytoplasm, and nuclear membrane, and can also respond sensitively to larger particles in the cytoplasm. SSC is used to detect cells inside Structural properties, parameters about the ultrastructural and granular properties within the cell can be obtained. When a cell carries a fluorescein marker and passes through the laser irradiation area, after the fluorescent substance in the cell absorbs the light energy in line with its wavelength range, the internal electrons are excited to rise to a high energy level, and then rapidly decay back to the ground state, releasing excess energy to become Photons generate fluorescent signals representing different substances and different wavelengths in the cell. These signals are centered on the cell and emitted to a 360-degree solid angle in space to generate scattered light and fluorescent signals. Due to the side scattered light and fluorescence, the intensity is very weak. In order to meet the requirements of the imaging system of the utility model, the side scattered light and fluorescence must be gathered to match with the collimation system to increase the signal strength of the fluorescence and side scattered light. The imaging of side scattered light can well reflect the complex structure inside the cell, so we have an image of the cell structure, and the cell imaging of the excited fluorescence can be used for the correlation analysis of the signal distribution at the subcellular level. The detection and quantification of such fluorescent signals can provide insight into the presence and quantification of the cell parameters under study.
本实用新型中成像光谱的分离：在一块直角棱镜斜面上制作位相型透射体全息光栅，并与另一块相同的棱镜用环氧树脂胶合起来，构成立方体。这样对环境湿度极为敏感的DCG全息图即被封装在两块棱镜的斜面之间，可以长期保存；HTBF作为带通式滤光片的同时，其中在中心处加上圆孔的掩膜构成空间的全息窄带滤光片350。本实用新型中侧向散射光与荧光被大数值孔径的物镜320收集后，根据Bragg条件，可以将光信号分成不同波段的光谱投射到多通道CCD370的不同通道上。Separation of imaging spectrum in the utility model: a phase-type transmissive holographic grating is made on the inclined surface of a rectangular prism, and glued together with another identical prism with epoxy resin to form a cube. In this way, the DCG hologram, which is extremely sensitive to environmental humidity, is packaged between the slopes of the two prisms and can be stored for a long time; while HTBF is used as a band-pass filter, a mask with a round hole is added at the center to form a space The holographic narrowband filter 350. In the utility model, after the side scattered light and fluorescence are collected by the objective lens 320 with a large numerical aperture, according to the Bragg condition, the optical signal can be divided into different bands of spectrum and projected onto different channels of the multi-channel CCD370.
