Zusammenfassung:A system (100) and a method for detecting fluorescence is disclosed. The system (100) essentially comprises a labelled sample wherein said labelled sample emits an electromagnetic radiation of a defined wavelength when irradiated by a LASER beam of a commensurate wavelength, a source (102) for emitting said LASER beam, oriented as to aim at said labelled sample, a chamber for holding said labelled sample during said LASER irradiation, a reflective layer (108) positioned to reflect said electromagnetic radiation, and a detector (112) positioned to detect and amplify said electromagnetic radiation. The method essentially comprises the steps of providing a labelled sample wherein said labelled sample emits an electromagnetic radiation of a defined wavelength when irradiated by a LASER beam of a commensurate wavelength, providing a source (102) for emitting said LASER beam, oriented as to aim at said labelled sample, providing a chamber for holding said labelled sample during said LASER irradiation, providing a reflective layer (108) positioned to reflect said electromagnetic radiation, providing a detector (112) positioned to detect and amplify said electromagnetic radiation, irradiating said sample with said LASER beam and analyzing said amplified electromagnetic radiation from said detector (112) with a signal processing block (114).
