TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of detection, in particular to a detection device and system based on multiple excitation light sources. BACKGROUND
[0002] The fluorescent immunochromatography technology is a new quantitative detection technology combining the immunofluorescence technology and the traditional immunochromatography technology. The technology takes a strip-shaped fiber chromatography material with a detection line (coated antibody or coated antigen) and a quality control line (anti-antibody) fixed as a stationary phase, a test solution as a mobile phase, and a fluorescently labeled antibody or antigen fixed on a connecting pad. The analyte is moved on the chromatography strip through capillary action. For macromolecular antigens (proteins, viruses, pathogenic bacteria, etc.) with multiple antigenic determinants, a "sandwich" type double-antibody sandwich immunochromatography method is usually used, that is, the analyte is combined with the fluorescently labeled antibody under the action of the mobile phase, and then combined with the coated antibody to form a "sandwich" type double-antibody sandwich when reaching the detection line. Finally, the concentration of the analyte can be quantitatively analyzed through the fluorescence intensity of the detection reaction of the quality control line and the detection line. The technology not only retains the advantages of the colloidal gold immunochromatography technology, such as simple operation, rapid detection, and strong portability, but also realizes accurate quantification of the detection results through fluorescence tracing enhancement technology. The fluorescent immunochromatography detection technology has been widely used in many fields such as clinical immunology index testing and environmental pathogenic microorganism detection.

The fluorescent immunochromatography detection technology has very high requirements for uniform light path, which has a great influence on the detection results, and therefore a detection device with uniform and high-precision light path is needed.
