Publication number: 20110053291Abstract: Disclosed is a method for analyzing a sample solution, including introducing a sample solution 50 through a sample introduction part 6 and developing the sample solution 50 to a developing layer 2 through a capillary phenomenon to analyze an analyte contained in the sample solution 50, the sample introduction part 6 being provided on one side of a test strip 100 and the developing layer 2 being provided on the other side of the test strip 100, wherein the test strip 100 is disposed in such a development posture that the downstream region of the developing layer faces downward during the development. By this method, the developing rate is less susceptible to the viscosity of the sample solution 50 and thus has a small difference even among sample solutions 50 differing in viscosity. As a result, the analytical accuracy and reliability can be improved.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 9, 2009Publication date: March 3, 2011Applicant: PANASONIC CORPORATIONInventors: Yoko Matsuda, Mie Takahashi, Masahiro Aga, Hideyuki Kurokawa, Takahiko Tanida, Ryosuke Yamada

Publication number: 20110032525Abstract: Provided is a liquid sample analyzing method for analyzing an analyte in a liquid sample by using a test piece (1) on which overflow blocking lines (7) are formed to prevent the liquid sample from flowing to the outside from a passage region (3a) of an extended layer (3). In a state in which the liquid sample is not extended in the passage region (3a) of the extended region (3), the test piece (1) is measured so as to cross the passage region (3a) of the extended layer (3) and the overflow blocking lines (7). Thus in a state in which a difference in brightness is large between the passage region (3a) of the extended region (3) and the overflow blocking lines (7), it is possible to properly recognize the boundary portions between the passage region (3a) of the extended region (3) and the overflow blocking lines (7).Type: ApplicationFiled: March 26, 2009Publication date: February 10, 2011Applicant: PANASONIC CORPORATIONInventors: Hideyuki Kurokawa, Koji Miyoshi, Masahiro Aga, Kenji Murakami, Takahiko Tanida, Ryosuke Yamada

Publication number: 20100273271Abstract: A solution measurement method in which a specimen X stored in a capillary 8 is developed from the capillary 8 to the development layer of a test piece, and the amount of a substance to be measured in the specimen X is calculated by measuring the optical property of a predetermined portion to be measured, the method including: measuring the portion to be measured, in response to a reduction of the specimen X in the capillary 8 to a predetermined amount or less; and calculating the amount of the substance to be measured in the specimen X, based on the measured value. According to this method, it, is possible to detect that a certain amount of the specimen X has flown from the capillary 8 to the portion to be measured on the development layer.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2008Publication date: October 28, 2010Applicant: PANASONIC CORPORATONInventors: Takahiko Tanida, Koji Miyoshi, Masahiro Aga, Ryosuke Yamada, Hideyuki Kurokawa, Yoko Matsuda, Mie Takahashi

Publication number: 20100210028Abstract: In a biosensor for measuring the concentration of an object to be analyzed by optical signal detection, when a liquid sample is supplied to a supply part (12), the liquid sample is developed in a development part (13), and color development takes place in a reaction part (14) depending upon the concentration of the object to be analyzed. The absorbance of the reaction part (14) is read. In this case, the amount of the liquid sample supplied into the supply part (12) can be measured by reading the development speed.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 25, 2008Publication date: August 19, 2010Applicant: PANASONIC CORPORATIONInventors: Koji Miyoshi, Masahiro Aga, Takahiko Tanida, Ryosuke Yamada, Hideyuki Kurokawa, Yoko Matsuda

Publication number: 20060182329Abstract: The movement of a window can be optimally controlled by storing, in window memory, information indicating a movement made by a distance corresponding to a window size, thereby preventing duplicate detection of the same cell and eliminating the need for recapturing data every time the window size is changed. Thus, it is possible to provide a cell analysis apparatus which can obtain the number of desired cells with one data acquisition and conduct an accurate analysis in a short time.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 22, 2004Publication date: August 17, 2006Inventors: Ryosuke Yamada, Masatake Hyoudou, Yoshiyuki Fujii
