Patent ID: 7262858

Claim:
An apparatus detecting reflection images from microarray biochip with sidewall, comprising: a carrier, carrying a plurality of microarray biochips; an optical module, scanning the biochips; and a movable system, carrying the carrier and the optical module respectively to achieve relative movement so that all the biochips are scanned, if the carrier is moveable in a first direction, then the optical module being movable in a second direction, if the optical module is moveable in the first direction, then the carrier being movable in the second direction, if the carrier is movable in both the first and the second directions, then the optical module being at a stationary condition, if the optical module is moveable in both the first and the second directions, then the carrier being at a stationary condition; wherein the optical module comprising: at least a white light source, irradiating on the biochips; at least a reflective lens, adjusting a light path of a reflected light from the biochips; at least a linear CCD (Charge Coupled Device), receiving the reflected light to retrieve images from the biochips; and at least a focus lens, focusing the reflected light to the CCD.
