Specifically describe
At least some of above-mentioned advantage realize through the determinator that uses particular design.The projection that the determinator utilization is substantially perpendicular to the surface produces capillary force so that liquid flow.The fact of the mensuration utilization of determinator is: capillary force can be different for different runners based on distance, geometry, diameter and the height of projection.The difference of capillary force is used for directing flow on required direction.
In an embodiment shown in Fig. 1 a, the device of handling liquid samples comprises a zone that receives sample, is shown as border circular areas.Be provided with two rectangular channels that separate that can receive said liquid, connect two streams of a groove respectively, and a connecting portion between said at least two streams.In the present embodiment, reactant mummification in the substrate in the zone that is labeled as " k ".Present embodiment further comprises gate, and it allows liquid flow when both direction contact liq at least, represent with " g " at gate described in Fig. 1.
Must be noted that this gate only allows liquid flow more than a side contacts liquid time.Fig. 4 shows the example that can be used for gate of the present invention.Must be noted that can be used for gate of the present invention is not limited to gate shown in Figure 4.Can use the gate of any type, this gate barrier liquid when a side contacts liquid only flows and more than a side contacts liquid time, allows liquid flow
When liquid flows to from a left side in stream shown in Figure 4 when right, mobile quilt stops, and when liquid flows to a left side from the right side, and gate allows mobile on the both direction.Thereby flowing liquid will flow in the little stream on primary flow path next door and will allow liquid to converge from both sides and allows flow of liquid through gate together from right to left.Position through regulating projection, distance, geometry, diameter and highly and the width of little stream and capillary force that the position makes gate when being suitable for estimating liquid, this can realize above-mentioned effect.
In one embodiment, gate comprise have adjusted positions, the projection of distance, geometry, diameter and height.
In alternative embodiment, there is not gate.The substitute is through making stream longer and/or reduce and to be applied to the capillary force on the liquid, make at least one stream flow slower than flowing in other streams.
The distance of projection, geometry, diameter and height are made capillary force at least a portion of stream and groove greater than the capillary force in the stream that leads to other grooves by adjustment.
In one embodiment, at least a reagent is attracted at least one flow path surfaces.In another embodiment, reagent is attracted on the stream that applies minimum capillary force.
The stream that liquid is applied different capillary forces is in one embodiment owing to different capillary forces has the different liquid flow rate.
An embodiment of the intersection of Fig. 2 stream is being made up of to produce different capillary forces the projection with different interval shown in Fig. 3 and in this specific embodiment.
In an embodiment shown in Figure 1, have two different slots that liquid applied different capillary forces.In the alternative embodiment shown in Fig. 1 d, have a groove divided into two parts, it applies different capillary forces to liquid.Be represented by dotted lines the border between the said part among Fig. 1 d.When the part that applies maximum capillary force during by complete filling, liquid will begin to flow in the zone that liquid is applied littler capillary force, make this effect be similar to the effect shown in Fig. 1 a and the 1b.
In one embodiment, material is adsorbed and/or is bound to analysis site.In one embodiment, this material can fetter at least one analyte.This examples of substances comprises antibody.
In one embodiment, at least a reagent be adsorbed or mummification at least one runner.This reagent can be any chemistry or the biological entities that participates in the analysis.The example of reagent comprises antibody, and said antibody comprises can detect entity, but other detection molecules, and can be bound to the molecule on the analyte.
In alternative embodiment, can carry out the multistep analysis, wherein for example two kinds, three kinds or plurality of reagents are added with the regular hour difference successively.This embodiment is shown in Fig. 1 c, and wherein two kinds of reagent k that separate and k ' are alternately added each other.In one embodiment, at least three different capillary forces are applied on the said liquid; First capillary force forms first groove, and second capillary force forms second groove, and the 3rd capillary force forms three-flute.In one embodiment, the groove that has the different size shown in Fig. 1 c.In another embodiment, projection is adjusted and is made that the capillary force that applies is different for different grooves and stream.
In another embodiment, can comprise the analysis in two steps or three steps.In one embodiment, comprise the global analysis in three steps.The specific example of this analysis is the device according to Fig. 1 c, and wherein the first antibody of direction analysis thing is bound to analysis site.In the first step, sample is bound on the sub-fraction of lip-deep first antibody through analysis site and analyte.In second step, the SA of direction analysis thing is through analysis site, and said SA comprises general constraint unit.SA will be bound to analyte in second step, and said analyte is bound to first antibody at analysis site.In the 3rd step, but the detection molecules that can be bound to the general constraint unit on the SA is through analysis site.But detection molecules is bound to antibody in the 3rd step.The advantage that this three step is analyzed is that the 3rd step all was identical and therefore said the 3rd step can be used for the number of different test by a suboptimization for all types of tests.
In second aspect of the present invention, a kind of method of analytic sample is provided, wherein use said apparatus analysis.In this method, sample preferably adds the zone that receives said sample to.Said method preferably includes the step that reads analysis result.
The external member that comprises said apparatus and at least a reagent is provided in the third aspect.Randomly, external member comprises further determinator.The example of this determinator comprises the retainer of device, is used to insert the measurement device of said device, or helps other devices of analyzing.In one embodiment, this external member comprises at least one packing.In another embodiment, external member comprises explanatory note.In another embodiment, external member comprises the reader that can on said device, measure.This reader can be measured on analysis site.
In one embodiment, when fluid sample is added to when receiving sample regional, liquid flows upward to gate and reagent by sample dissolution in a stream.This is shown in Fig. 2 a.Black rectangle characterizes reactant in Fig. 2.At another stream, liquid flows into the zone that receives sample.Sample flow is through carrying out the Analysis of measuring point.Because bigger capillary force in a stream, liquid has the groove of bigger capillary force along flow path with maximum capillary force and filling.By complete filling, liquid just begins to flow into the zone with littler capillary force up to the groove with bigger capillary force.Sample limited through the groove that filling has bigger capillary force with amount through the time of analysis site in the first step.In Fig. 2 b, the groove with bigger capillary force is begun to flow in the zone that liquid is applied littler capillary force by complete filling and sample.
Liquid will flow to gate then, and therefore when gate during at contact both sides liquid, the said liquid gate of can on both direction, flowing through.The liquid of reactant with dissolving is with other grooves shown in the flow graph 2c.In Fig. 2 c, the reactant that shows the dissolving that characterizes with black rectangle is through analysis site.In Fig. 2 d, measure completion and all grooves and be filled and/or no longer include available sample size fully.Therefore the time of gate before opening can be limited well and the said time is conditioned and makes and allow reagent fully to dissolve.
