ABSTRACT:
A system and method for illuminating an optically active sample and collecting scattered light emitted by the sample. Preferably, the sample is a fluorescently labeled and fluoresces light. The system includes a fiber optic bundle, including at least one illuminating fiber for emitting an illuminating beam, and including at least one collecting fiber disposed adjacent the illuminating fiber. The system further includes an optical apparatus for focusing the illuminating beam, for directing the focused illuminating beam to the fluorescently labeled sample to cause the sample to emit fluoresced light, and for directing at least some of the fluoresced light emitted by the sample to the collecting fiber.
