Purpose of the development: Designed console allows optical microscopes operate in a laser interferometer and investigate the phase structure of transparent and translucent micro-objects.

Recommended application field: Research, especially in biology and medicine. Conducting standardized tests in clinical practice.

Advantages over analogues: This prefix is economical and affordable substitute for specialized interferometric systems (eg laser microscope for biomedical research MIM-330, Moscow, Russia). It is easily integrated into arbitrary microscopic setup for different purposes. Industrial analogues in the world.

The development stage readiness: tested in laboratory condition

Technical and economic effect: The closest analogue of the set-top box is a MIM-330, the price of which is about 100 thousand. $, And the cost of set-top boxes, depending on configuration 3-10 thous. UAH.

Description of the development:
()
In the console method used ESPI (Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry), a similar method of digital (computer) holography. Information is supplied in the form of paintings phase correlation and derived 3D thickness profile or microscopic changes in the refractive index with the registration information in digital form. Employed in the console ESPI technique is contactless and nondestructive, and allows you to explore the biological objects in a living state, without fixation and staining. It provides important information that is difficult or impossible to obtain by other methods, for example to determine the degree of flattening of erythrocytes to determine the state of cells (living or dead), diagnose, and apoptotic cells peredapoptoznoe state, record the presence of cytoplasmic strands and emissions, membrane integrity, maturity and lymphoblasts et al. The prefix is being tested at the State Enterprise "Institute of Transport Medicine MPH of Ukraine" (Odessa), the results of tests on a patent pending method of diagnosis predapoptoznogo and apoptotic cell state
