Abstract

Lightpipes are light guides based on total internal reflection used for LED illumination systems with many applications. This work investigates using lightpipes in a fluorescent reader for microtubes. It is part of a project to develop an RT-RPA multiplex test and fluorescence reader for SARS-COV 2 and H1N1. We investigated the lightpipes interaction with an excitation filter. The results do not show a benefit in using them on the emission side due to the capture of LED scattered light.
