(57) [Summary] [Purpose] It is an object of the present invention to provide a slide glass dryer that can prevent the contamination of the inside of the dryer, the laboratory, the inspection room and the like and the infection to humans, and can be dried hygienically. [Composition] A sterilizing lamp is installed inside the dryer to sterilize the inside of the dryer and the bacteria to be inspected at the same time as it is dried, and keep the inside of the dryer and the room such as the laboratory and the inspection room hygienic to prevent human infection. A dryer that can be used.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a slide glass dryer equipped with a germicidal lamp used for dyeing or fixing microorganisms.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In recent years, for the purpose of identification test of microorganisms, particularly tubercle bacillus, it has been increasing in recent years to apply a sample such as sputum on a slide glass, dry it, and then stain it. When drying the sample on the slide glass, a dryer equipped with a heat source, a hot plate with or without a cover, or a hair dryer was used.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 When a sample such as raw sputum is dried on a slide glass, there is a risk that live bacteria will be scattered inside the dryer and the inside will be contaminated.Furthermore, there is a risk of contamination in the laboratory or inspection room. . The danger is even greater with uncovered hot plates, let alone hair dryers, and in the worst case, there is a risk of infecting the inspector or persons inside and outside the examination room. Therefore, there was a big problem in hygiene and environmental hygiene.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems of the prior art, and its main purpose is to provide a slide glass dryer which eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks and inconveniences and is easy to operate. To aim. More specifically, it is an object of the present invention to provide a slide glass dryer with a germicidal lamp that can prevent the contamination of the inside of the dryer and the laboratory and the inspection room and the infection to humans and can be dried sanitarily. .

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention that achieves the above-mentioned object is to install a sterilizing lamp in a slide glass dryer, which is a device for drying a slide glass coated with viable bacteria, and sterilize the inside of the container and the test bacteria at the same time as drying. It is characterized by keeping the inside of the chamber, the laboratory, the laboratory, etc. hygienic and preventing human infection. In order to rapidly identify and test microorganisms contained in sputum, especially tubercle bacillus, a sample of sputum etc. is applied as is or after homogenization to a slide glass and the slide glass dryer with sterilization lamp of the present invention is used. To dry. After the completion of drying, staining was carried out by a conventional method, and the judgment was made by observation with a microscope. A comparison was made with a sample that had been dried by the conventional drying method and then stained, but no effect of irradiation with germicidal lamps on the staining and identification results of the bacteria was observed. Moreover, by using the slide glass dryer with a germicidal lamp of the present invention, it was possible to prevent contamination in the dryer and the inspection room.

【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 3 are perspective views of the present proposal. FIG. 2 is a sectional view of the inside of the device according to the embodiment of the present invention.

Example 1 A dryer main body having a length of 130 mm, a width of 385 mm, and a height of 110 mm was produced using stainless steel or a coated iron plate (FIG. 1). A window 2 made of heat-resistant glass is provided above the front door 7. As shown in FIG. 2, a 6 W germicidal lamp 4 was provided in the upper part, and a slide glass shelf 5 which was a hot plate in which a heat source 6 having a size of 250 mm in width and 80 mm in length was incorporated was installed in the center. When the main switch 3 is turned on, the temperature of the slide glass shelf 5 becomes 60 to 200 ° C., and the slide glass on which the sample such as sputum is placed is dried by heat. At the same time, the germicidal lamp is turned on. In addition, a thermostat was built-in so that the power could be turned off when the internal temperature reached 100 ° C. When this slide glass dryer was used for drying slide glasses, a desired effect could be obtained. (Embodiment 2) The dryer of Production Example 1 was provided with a timer, and when the timer switch 8 was turned on, the heater and the germicidal lamp were operated within a set time of 5 minutes to 30 minutes. When this slide glass dryer was used for drying slide glasses, the desired effect could be obtained.

[0008]

[Effect of device]

 As described above in detail, the slide glass dryer with a germicidal lamp of the present invention can prevent contamination and keep the inside of the container and the room such as the laboratory and the inspection room hygienic, and the human pathogen from the sample can be kept. There is no fear of infection.
