A macroscopic fluorescence illumination assembly is provided for use with an imaging apparatus with a light-tight imaging compartment. The imaging apparatus includes an interior wall defining a view port extending into the imaging compartment to enable viewing of a specimen contained therein. The illumination assembly includes a specimen support surface sized and dimensioned for receipt in the imaging compartment, and oriented to face toward the view port of the imaging apparatus. The support surface is substantially opaque and defines a window portion that enables the passage of light there through. The window portion is selectively sized and dimensioned such that the specimen, when supported atop the support surface, can be positioned and seated over the window portion in a manner forming a light-tight seal substantially there between. The illumination assembly further includes an excitation light source, and a bundle of fiber optic strands having proximal ends thereof in optical communication with the light source. The distal ends of the strands terminate proximate the window portion of the support surface. The distal ends each emit a respective beam of light originating from the light source which are then collectively directed toward the window portion and into a bottom side of the specimen wherein the diffused light passes there through and exits a topside thereof for receipt through the view port to view the fluorescence of the specimen.

The present invention discloses a physiologic sampling pump (PSP) which uses at least one valve placed near the sampling medium to modulate air sampling to follow a person's inhalation rate and to obviate the sluggishness inherent in prior art PSPs caused by varying pump speed and by the propagation time through an air tube that connects the collection medium to prior art pumps thereby also obviating limitations inherent in system response, functionality, and accuracy. Moreover, by maintaining an essentially constant air flow through a cyclone at all times and through the collection medium while sampling, the present invention operates at known collection efficiencies, and is therefore capable of size-selective sampling of particulates as opposed to prior art PSPs that by varying the magnitude of air flow, make the separation efficiencies of pre-collection devices indeterminate and the samples worthless. When used instead with an impact sampling head, the present invention may collect total particulate as well, and may collect gases and vapors with a charcoal tube sampling head. Structural features associated with the physiological sampling pump for providing rapid response to breathing include an outer housing including a thereto-resistant case, multiple and interchangeable PSP sampling heads further including collection media and a valve(s) mounted on a valve manifold with associated tubing.

Size-selective hemocompatible porous polymeric adsorbents are provided with a pore structure capable of excluding molecules larger than 50,000 Daltons, but with a pore system that allows good ingress and egress of molecules smaller than 35,000 Daltons.
