Charged coupled device camera

Yarin and Weiss[357] also determined the number and size of secondary droplets, as well as the total ejected mass during splashing. Their experimental observations by means of a computer-aided charge-coupled-device camera and video printer showed that the dependence of the critical impact velocity, at which splashing initiates, on the physical properties (density, viscosity, and surface tension) and the frequency of the droplet train is universal, and the threshold velocity may be estimated by ... 

Convergent Bioscience has an interesting approach to detection in CE by using a CCD (charge-coupled device) camera to image the entire capillary (Figure 7). A UV-transparent capillary is needed and the entire capillary is excited with a xenon lamp. This is useful in cIEF... 

Recently, an automatic color video image analysis system was developed to quantify antigen expression (androgen receptor) (Kim et al.,T999a). This system provides a linear relationship between the antigen content and mean optical density of the immunoperoxidase-substrate reaction product. Titration of antibody, concentration, and reaction duration of the substrate can be optimized with this system. The imaging hardware consists of a Zeiss microscope, a three-chip charge-coupled-device camera, a camera control board, and a Pentium-based personal computer. 

Fig. 15.1. Schematic representation of amyloid fibrils revealed by total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy, (a) The penetration depth of the evanescent field formed by the total internal reflection of laser light is 150nm for a laser light at 455 nm, so only amyloid fibrils lying parallel to the slide glass surface were observed. (b) Schematic diagram of a prism-type TIRFM system on an inverted microscope. ISIT image-intensifier-coupled silicone intensified target camera, CCD charge-coupled device camera...

A new application of the fluorescence effect in the visible spectrum has appeared in the past few years. It consists of recording on a digital camera the image created by the light photons emitted by a fluorescent screen. These are CCD (charge coupled device) cameras. The principle of such detectors will not be described in detail in this book.
