A two bead immunoassay in a micro fluidic device using a flat laser intensity profile for illumination
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Recently it was demonstrated that a collimated Gaussian beam can be converted to a flattop beam using a Keplerian beam reshaper consisting of two aspheric lenses. Here, using the same optical system, we demonstrate that this flattop profile can be maintained when used in a confocal detection system that focuses the laser beam into a diameter of only 33 microm. The intensity profile of the reshaped beam was determined by imaging the excitation of a constant stream of fluorescein inside a microfluidic device. The resulting shape had a 6.38% RSD intensity across the flat profile when imaged with a CCD camera. This flat illumination profile was then used in a two bead multiplex immunoassay where the colour combination and/or the intensities can be used to determine the presence of an antigen. Detection limits of TNF-alpha and IL-6 were comparable with standard ELISA immunoassays.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
