The display 19 is set to set the operating instructions so that it is heated to the set temperature around the adapter. There is a separate temperature sensor at the bottom of the adapter to collect the temperature in real time. When the preset temperature is reached, the excitation unit will emit a specific light, which will pass through the optical filtering unit and enter the test tube of the detection reagent. Then, it will excite light of another wavelength in the direction of the optical path and further enter the optical path convergence filtering unit. After being collected by the optical path collection and processing unit, it will be transmitted to the optical path collection and processing unit for processing and then uploaded to the control The result is processed by the controller and finally uploaded to the display 19 for display to the user. After N cycles, the reagent is continuously amplified and the fluorescence intensity is continuously increased, forming an amplification curve relationship with the number of cycles and the relative fluorescence intensity, so as to determine whether it is negative or positive, thereby achieving a diagnostic purpose; when dual-channel detection is required, just open another 90-degree optical path channel to excite the light unit to emit specific light, which is injected into the detection reagent tube through the optical filtering unit, and then excites another wavelength of light in a 90-degree optical path direction and further shoots into the optical path convergence filtering unit. The collection needs to be completed by the optical path collection and processing unit, and then uploaded to the controller 18 for processing and finally uploaded to the display for display to the user.
[0026] During the specific implementation of the cuvette detection module 17 function, first, place an empty 10mm standard cuvette into the cuvette base, click the display to perform a blank control, and then take out the empty 10mm standard cuvette. Further, it is necessary to add the test agent into the 10mm standard cuvette, and then place the cuvette into the cuvette base. If an incubation operation is required, first set the operation instruction on the setting display 19, and it needs to be incubated at 37 degrees Celsius. Further, the controller 18 will control the incubation unit to feedback the real-time temperature through a separate temperature sensor. If the preset temperature is not reached, the heating membrane of the incubation unit 172 on both sides of the cuvette base 171 will work until the temperature is reached; after the current operation is completed or the next operation is directly performed, then click the display 19 to click on sample detection, the controller 18 will control the light excitation unit to emit light of a specific wavelength, pass through the light path convergence unit and the aperture, and then pass through the standard cuvette filled with the reagent, and further pass through the light convergence unit and the light filtering unit. Finally, it is detected by the light path acquisition and processing unit 164, processed, sent to the controller 18 for processing, and finally uploaded to the display 19 for display to the user.
