Patent number: 10401266Abstract: In a first aspect, the invention relates to the use of a UV-polymerizable composition as an embedding medium for biological samples. The UV-polymerizable composition is a composition with a refractive index ranging from n=1.45 to n=1.6 after a polymerization process. In another aspect, the invention relates to a method for producing embedded biological samples using said UV-polymerizable composition and to the embedded biological samples themselves. The biological samples can be used in a wide variety of areas, such as diagnostics among others, and are suitable in particular for RNA-based diagnostics.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2015Date of Patent: September 3, 2019Assignee: Laser Zentrum Hannover e.V.Inventors: Mark Kuehnel, Manuela Kellner, Danny Jonigk, Nicole Izykowski, Heiko Meyer, Raoul-Amadeus Lorbeer, Marko Heidrich

Patent number: 9250061Abstract: The invention relates to a device (10; 210; 310; 410; 510) for tomographic image recording. The device comprises a sample retainer (14), a light source (12), and a detector unit (16). The light source (12) is designed to produce a pencil beam (38), which has a beam direction (40) and which passes through a sample volume of the sample retainer (14) provided in order to accommodate a sample, and has an optical control element (30), which is able to move the pencil beam (38) passing through the sample retainer (14) transversely to the beam direction (40) while the beam direction (40) remains substantially unchanged. The detector unit (16) is designed to detect at least a portion of scattered radiation (64; 64?) escaping from a section of the pencil beam (38) within the sample volume or the sample retainer (14) in a non-spatially-resolved manner.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2011Date of Patent: February 2, 2016Assignee: LASER ZENTRUM HANNOVER E.V.Inventors: Raoul-Amadeus Lorbeer, Heiko Meyer, Marko Heidrich, Alexander Heisterkamp
