Description

Liquid drop micro-fluidic chip with automatic nucleic acid extraction and purification functions
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of microfluidic biochips, in particular to a droplet microfluidic chip with an automatic nucleic acid extraction and purification function.
Background
The existing nucleic acid extraction and purification modes mainly comprise phenol chloroform extraction, centrifugal column purification and magnetic bead nucleic acid separation technology. Wherein, phenol chloroform extraction method uses phenol to denature protein, sodium dodecyl sulfonate to crack cell membrane, and protein or polypeptide is digested under the action of protease K, EDTA to free DNA from nucleoprotein. And obtaining purified nucleic acid after precipitation, extraction, multiple times of washing and other processes. However, reagents such as phenol and chloroform have high toxicity, low nucleic acid recovery rate, high handling difficulty, and difficulty in performing a trace amount of operations. The centrifugal column and the magnetic bead method are used for extracting and purifying nucleic acid, and the principle that a silica gel carrier or nano magnetic beads only have strong affinity and adsorption force on nucleic acid but do not adsorb other biochemical components is utilized, so that a nucleic acid purification product with better quality can be obtained at low cost, and the two methods are main stream extraction methods in the current market. However, the above extraction method still requires multiple steps, and the extraction and purification process is very complicated.
In order to simplify the extraction and purification process, a plurality of mainstream molecular diagnostic companies at home and abroad sequentially develop a plurality of magnetic bead-based automated nucleic acid extraction devices, such as a GeneRotex-series nucleic acid extractor, an MGISP automated nucleic acid extraction system manufactured by Hua Dazhi, a KingFisher Presto nucleic acid extraction system developed by Thermol Fisher, a MagNA-series full-automatic nucleic acid purifier manufactured by Roche, and the like, which are proposed by Tianlong technology limited companies. The full-automatic nucleic acid extraction and purification equipment replaces heavy manual operation through system integration, and meanwhile, the detection accuracy and reliability are remarkably improved. However, these instruments and devices only have a single function of nucleic acid extraction and purification, and cannot integrate functions of sample addition, reagent mixing and the like into one device or one system, which is not beneficial to on-site rapid real-time detection and analysis such as instant detection, accompanying diagnosis and the like. Therefore, it is important to establish a detection method with high efficiency, high integration level, less sample space exposure, high detection sensitivity and accurate and reliable result.
