The present disclosure relates to a bioparticle measuring method including detecting a signal from a first measurement sample and a signal from a second measurement sample, wherein the first measurement sample is prepared by mixing a first sample containing a bioparticle sampled from a specimen with a detector capable of binding to the bioparticle and containing a labeled substance, in the presence of an inhibitor capable of binding to the bioparticle and containing none of the labeled substance. The second measurement sample is prepared by mixing a second sample sampled from the same specimen independently from the first sample with the detector, under a condition that the inhibitor is substantially absent. A measurement result is then calculated from the detected signals from the first and second measurement samples.

Bioparticle measuring method

The present disclosure relates to a bioparticle measuring method including forming on a solid phase a complex of a sample containing a bioparticle sampled from a specimen, a capturer containing a tag which binds to the solid phase and capable of binding to the bioparticle, and a detector capable of binding to the bioparticle and containing a labeled substance. A part or the whole of the complex may be dissociated from the solid phase to prepare a measurement sample containing a part or the whole of the complex not fixed on the solid phase, and signals from the measurement sample may be detected by a particle analyzer.

The present invention relates to a method for measuring the cholesterol uptake capacity of lipoproteins. The present invention also relates to a reagent kit for measuring the cholesterol uptake capacity of lipoproteins. The present invention further relates to a tagged cholesterol which can be used in the method and the reagent kit.

Method for measuring cholesterol uptake capacity of lipoproteins

A cell information acquisition method may include: binding a binding substance to a receptor on a cell membrane surface of a cell, the binding substance being bindable to the receptor; permeabilizing a cell membrane of the cell after the binding; labeling a receptor in an intracellular area of the cell with a binding substance labeled with a first labeling substance after the permeabilizing; causing a specimen including the cell to flow through a flow path after the labeling; irradiating the cell included in the specimen flowing through the flow path with light; and acquiring a signal based on light generated from the first labeling substance in the cell irradiated with light.

Cell information acquisition method and cell information acquisition device

Provided is a method of measuring a lipoprotein's capacity to accept cholesterol including the steps of bringing a lipoprotein in a sample into contact with labeled cholesterol to incorporate the labeled cholesterol into the lipoprotein, bringing the lipoprotein having the labeled cholesterol into contact with an antibody that binds to a lipoprotein to form a complex of the lipoprotein and the antibody, and measuring the label incorporated into the complex.

Method of measuring lipoprotein's capacity to accept cholesterol

A cell information obtaining method comprises causing a plurality of fluorescent substances having different fluorescence wavelengths from each other to be bound to a test substance contained in a cell, applying light to the cell to cause fluorescences having different wavelengths and intensities to be generated from the plurality of fluorescent substances, and obtaining a first fluorescence information and a second fluorescence information on the basis of the generated fluorescences.
