The detection object of the present embodiment is Escherichia coli, and bacterium solution preparation process is:Tryptone 10g is weighed, yeast carries
Object 5g, sodium chloride 10g are taken, water is added to be settled to 1L, high pressure steam sterilization 10 minutes is inoculated with exponential phase in Biohazard Safety Equipment
Escherichia coli, shaking table culture 16 hours (37 DEG C of shaking table temperature) after inoculation.
The glass microballoon that grinding microballon is diameter 1mm used in the present embodiment, ball shape is hard, spherical preferable,
It is added in 2g glass microballoons to the first chamber 32 in the utility model chip.Silica gel magnetic bead is straight used in the present embodiment
Diameter is 10 μm or so, and interior nuclear magnetism is superparamagnetism, and shell is covered with macromolecule inert material styrene, when in use first
The silica gel magnetic bead is dissolved in aqueous solution, then takes 200 μ L point samples at the nucleic acid purification unit 5 in the chip.
Step 1:The assemble method of chip
1) above-mentioned each reaction reagent is mounted in reagent pouch 21 in advance, and by the reagent pouch by way of thermoplastic envelope
21 seal 212 is sealed (heating time 30s);And the spy of chip system media layer damage is placed on by location hole 211
Determine at liquid storage structure, the reagent pouch 21 of each liquid storage is further fixed on chip system media layer damage by way of thermoplastic envelope
On.
2) upper layer 1 of the utility model chip, middle layer 2 and lower layer 3 are prepared by way of injection molding.First will
Each reagent pouch 21 that step 1) obtains is loaded at 2 structure of corresponding liquid storage unit of middle layer 2, then grinding microballon is added
It takes 200 μ L to be injected into the nucleic acid purification unit 5 of chip into the first chamber 32 of the chip, then by silica gel magnetic bead, passes through
Silica gel magnetic bead is fixed in nucleic acid purification unit 5 by the mode that high temperature is dried to (70 DEG C, 2 hours).Draw needed for quantitative fluorescent PCR
Object is by micro- well 41 in point sample instrument point sample to nucleic acid amplification unit 4, and curing 2 hours makes it fix.
Lower layer 3 is fitted in interlayer structure by the cured mode of light-sensitive emulsion (ultraviolet light hardening time 10min) again,
Upper layer 1 is fitted in middle layer 2 by same light-sensitive emulsion curing mode (ultraviolet light hardening time 10min), is so prepared
Go out complete available chip system.
Step 2:Pattern detection
The pattern detection process of the utility model chip is broadly divided into five steps.
Step 1) draws the Escherichia coli bacteria liquid of 50 μ L by pipettor, and Escherichia coli bacteria liquid is passed through the utility model core
The well of piece is added in this chip system, hence into sample injection unit 1, then the utility model chip is placed on mating
Start to test in instrument 9.
Step 2) is inside necessary instrument 9, and instrument adjusts the air pressure of chip interior by internal pulsometer 91, by core
Sample to be tested inside piece is drawn into the first chamber 32 in cell cracking unit 3, and extra sample is flowed into second chamber
In 33, quantifying for sample volume is carried out here, extra sample to be tested is drawn into waste unit 6 by pulsometer.
Step 3) closes the micro-valve door of cell cracking unit 3 by necessary instrument 9, and squeezes lysate pouch and make its rupture
The internal preloaded with liquid of release promotes internal sample to be checked that cell occurs broken by the continuously extruded cell cracking unit 3 of push-pull rod
It splits.The micro-valve door of cell cracking unit 3 is opened, and closes the micro-valve door of nucleic acid purification chamber 5, is discharged clearly by same mode
Cleaning solution in washing lotion pouch makes it rinse product of cell lysis and enters in nucleic acid purification chamber 5, fully after cleaning, in nucleic acid
5 lower portion of purification chamber introduces magnet attraction and fixes silica gel magnetic bead, opens the micro-valve door of nucleic acid purification chamber 5, passes through instrument
Extracting effect cleaning solution is drawn into waste unit 6, same mode discharges and discharges cleaning solution again, finally discharges liquid storage
In eluent to purification chamber in unit 2, the DNA adsorbed on the silica gel magnetic bead that makes is eluted.
Step 4) closes the micro-valve door of cell cracking unit 3 and nucleic acid purification unit 5, and squeezing nucleic acid purification unit 5 makes it
The DNA solution that inside is eluted enters in nucleic acid amplification unit 4, discharges the nucleic acid amplification agents in liquid storage unit 2, passes through
The temperature control of necessary instrument 9 carries out fluorescence real-time quantitative PCR reaction, and (its temperature and time is respectively 94 DEG C, 1 minute, then
55 DEG C, 1 minute, then 72 DEG C, 1 minute, carry out at least 20 cycles).
For step 5) in amplification procedure, the SYBR Green fluorescent dyes used in the system can be specifically bound to double-strand
On DNA, with the progress of PCR amplification, reagent double center chain DNA is more and more, the SYBR dyestuffs with double-stranded DNA specific binding
More and more, obtained fluorescence signal is more and more stronger, and fluorescence intensity is detected by the light detection module in necessary instrument
Variation, can obtain specific amplification curve, and the infection that sample to be checked whether there is Escherichia coli is parsed from amplification curve.
Using same testing process, taking sterile waters of the 50 μ L without containing Escherichia coli, as a contrast in addition sample is added to
It in one detection chip system, repeats the above steps and is detected, obtain its testing result.
The result shows that this micro-fluidic chip is the positive to the testing result of Escherichia coli solution, and to being free of Escherichia coli
Sterile water its testing result be feminine gender, show that the micro-fluidic chip system can be used for carrying out bacterium presence or absence in sample
Detection, negative control and positive test show that this detection chip has result accurate, and detection speed is fast (about 50 minutes), can be with
It is further used as the molecule diagnostic medicine reference of nucleic acid amplification.
Preferred embodiments of the present invention described in detail above, still, the utility model is not limited to this.At this
In the range of the technology design of utility model, a variety of simple variants can be carried out to the technical solution of the utility model, including each
Technical characteristic is combined with any other suitable method, these simple variants and combination equally should be considered as the utility model
