Abstract: Provided are a morbidity diagnosis support system, a morbidity diagnosis data-generating system, and a morbidity diagnosis support method that are capable of supporting a highly reliable morbidity diagnosis. A morbidity diagnosis support system includes an extension device for extending a tissue section of cells, an image-photographing device for acquiring image data by image-photographing the tissue section, an image analysis device for analyzing the image data to calculate an index of morbidity based on a mode of cracks generated in the tissue section by the extension, and an output device for outputting the calculated index.

Abstract: A method for detecting a cytokine in a biological fluid sample with a high sensitivity is provided. A time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay (TR-FIA) method including a step of forming on a solid phase a composite in which a cytokine is captured and which includes a fluorescent structural portion which has been complexed with a lanthanoid metal ion, and measuring fluorescence of the fluorescent structural portion. The composite is formed of a structure in which (a) a first antibody including a portion bound to a solid phase and a region bindable to a cytokine; (b) the cytokine; (c) a second antibody including a region bindable to the cytokine and a portion to which biotin is bound; (d) a conjugate including streptoavidin or avidin and a fluorescent structural portion capable of being complexed with a lanthanoid metal ion; and (e) the lanthanoid metal ion are bound. The fluorescent structural portion is represented by General Formula (I): R—Ar—C(?O)—CH2—C(?O)—CnF2n—X.
