Abstract: [Problem] To provide a method for acquisition of data able to serve as an index for determining the likelihood that an ovarian endometriosis cyst is cancerous. [Solution] This data acquisition method for determining the likelihood that an ovarian endometriosis cyst is cancerous includes an iron concentration measurement step for measuring the iron concentration in the cystic fluid of the ovarian endometriosis cyst. This diagnostic device for diagnosing the likelihood that an ovarian endometriosis cyst is cancerous is provided, at a minimum, with an iron concentration measurement unit for measuring the iron concentration in the cystic fluid of the ovarian endometriosis cyst.

Abstract: An Fe(II) ion detection agent, and related method, capable of fluorescently detecting Fe(II) ions quickly with high sensitivity is disclosed. The Fe(II) ion detection agent can be a compound represented by formula (I) (fluorescence probe): wherein R1 and R2 represent lower alkyl; R3 and R4 represent hydrogen; R5 represents hydrogen, hydroxyl, or a group represented by formula (A): —NR51R52 wherein R51 and R52 represent lower alkyl; R6 and R7 represent hydrogen; ring A represents an aromatic ring; V represents O or SiR10R11 wherein R10 and R11 are the same or different and represent, hydrogen or lower alkyl; W represents CH2, CO; Z represents O; m and n are the same or different and represent 0 or 1. The agent can be combined with a compound having at least three coordinating positions.
Abstract: [Problem] To provide a plasma (or serum) separation apparatus and a plasma (or serum) separation method that enable quick, reliable, and low-cost separation of plasma from blood, even a minute amount of blood, at any place, without using a centrifuge separator, a pressurization/suction pump, or the like. [Solution] A plasma separation apparatus comprises a blood separation part having a blood separation member, and a plasma collection part having a plasma collection member, wherein the blood separation member is mounted on a hydrophobic pedestal and includes a blood receiving area and a plasma separation area that is connected to the plasma collection part, and the plasma separation part has the cross-sectional area thereof gradually decreasing toward the plasma collection part. Here, “plasma” means “plasma or serum.
