The invention is applicable to the field of
cell analysis equipment, and discloses an optical detection device and a
cell analyser, the optical detection device comprises a flow chamber, a
light source and a forward scattering detection
assembly, the forward scattering detection
assembly is used for collecting forward scattering signals generated when the
light source irradiates to-be-detected cells, and the forward scattering signals are sent to the flow chamber; the forward scattering detection
assembly comprises a first focusing lens, a diaphragm assembly and a first
detector, and the diaphragm assembly is arranged between the first focusing lens and the first
detector; the first focusing lens is arranged between the flowing chamber and the diaphragm assembly, so that forward scattering light generated when the
light source irradiates to-be-detected cells is converged and then penetrates through the diaphragm assembly to enter the first
detector, the first focusing lens is a spherical lens, and the number of the first focusing lens is one. The single spherical lens is adopted to collect forward scattering signals and gather the forward scattering signals to the first detector, so that the size and the cost of the optical detection device are effectively reduced, and the
miniaturization design of the
cell analyzer is facilitated.
