Abstract
An objective lens switching device includes a prismatic cuvette perpendicular to a plane parallel to a direction of detection and a lighting direction, which are mutually perpendicular. The cross-section of the prism is a polygon with more than four sides with pairs of mutually perpendicular faces. At least several pairs of faces include one face designed to receive a planar light beam in the lighting direction and one face with a coupled lens or objective lens to detect fluorescent light in the direction of detection. The cuvette can rotate about an axis perpendicular to said plane, allowing a specific objective lens to be oriented in the direction of detection.
