Description

A kind of ultramicron liquid drop control device and method based on liquid residue
Technical field
The invention belongs to the Microfluidic droplet analysis field in analytical chemistry, specifically relate to a kind of ultramicron liquid drop control device and method based on liquid residue.
Background technology
The liquid manipulation method and apparatus of trace plays a part more and more important in the development of present analysis chemical field.On the one hand, the reduction of liquid manipulation volume decreases the demand to rare sample, significantly reduces experiment difficulty and cost.On the other hand, the bulk effect of microbody system avoids the excess dilution to submicrosample, thus achieves the chemical analysis task that conventional large volume system has been difficult to, as unicellular and single molecule analysis.Microfluidic chip technology is by micro electronmechanical process technology, the substrate such as glass or plastics is processed the micro scale channel of networking, and in conjunction with the drivings such as pressure, electricity, magnetic, light, sound, heat and control method, the ultramicron liquid in passage is manipulated, thus complete micro biochemical reaction and analyze.Microflow control technique has become the platform technology of micro liquid manipulation, is widely used in the fields such as chemistry and bioanalysis, chemical synthesis, drug screening, medical diagnosis, group research.
Microflow control technique based on drop is a kind of novel micro liquid manipulation fast-developing in recent years and biochemical analysis technology.Drop microflow control technique is by the manipulation to two-phase liquid immiscible in microchannel or micro-structural, realize skin to rise to and receive the quantitative generation, mixing, division, screening etc. of upgrading water-in-oil type (or oil-in-water type) drop reactor, thus the liquid manipulation operation needed for conventional chemical and biological respinse can be completed on ultramicron volume.Compared with Continuous Flow (single-phase) microflow control technique, drop microflow control technique eliminates dilution and the diffusion of reactant or product in microreactor, and significantly improves mass transfer and heat transfer rate in reactor.Meanwhile, the oil-water interfaces of bio-compatible, also for ultramicron biochemical reaction provides gentle homogeneous microenvironment, effectively improve its reaction efficiency.
At present, most liquid droplet system all adopts has formation and the manipulation that microchip that is T-shaped or cross focus type passage carries out drop.Size and two-phase flow velocity generally by regulating passage regulate size and generated frequency (Thorsen T, Roberts R W, Arnold F H, Quake S R., Phys.Rev.Lett., 2001,86:4163 ~ 4166 of drop; Anna S L, Bontoux N, Stone H A., Appl.Phys.Lett., 2003,82:364 ~ 366).In order to inject sample or reagent solution carries out biochemical reaction mensuration in drop, main employing two class methods: a kind of is adopt T-shaped passage continuous sample to be injected into (Zheng B in different drops, Ismagilov R F., Angew.Chem.Int.Ed., 2005,44:2520 ~ 2523); Another kind adopts the drop that two or more are contained different component by fluid pressure or electronic method to carry out merging (Niu X, Gulati S, Edel J B, deMello A J., LabChip, 2008,8:1837 ~ 1841; Mazutis L, Araghi A F, Miller O J, Baret J C, FrenzL, Janoshazi A, Taly V, Miller B J, Hutchison J B, Link D, Griffiths A D, Ryckelynck M., Anal.Chem., 2009,81:4813 ~ 4821).This kind of liquid drop control technology based on microchannel network has drop formation and manipulation speed is fast, and automaticity advantages of higher, is particularly suitable for the application scenario needing to carry out extensive liquid drop control.But also there are some obvious limitation in this kind of drop technique.First, these class methods are difficult to generate fast the drop of different chemical composition and concentration, limit its application in the high-flux medicaments sifting etc. taking Multi-example as principal character.Secondly, adding to realize sample the pressure or electrical means that adopt with droplet coalescence, all needing the composition to drop and oil phase, the flow velocity of drop, position accurately controls, operation easier is large, and the cost of chip needed for it is also higher.In addition, because drop is stored in closed chip channel, be difficult to from drop, directly sample the analysis carrying out next step and measure.
Recently, the seminar at applicant place has developed a kind of liquid drop control method (Fang Qun, Zhu Ying, Zhang Yunxia based on planar droplet array, there is a using method for the automation microlayer model array screening system of skin upgrading precision, application number: 201210589055; Zhu Ying, Fang Qun, Zhang Yunxia, Zhu Lina, the continuous point sample of drop and liquid feeding method under a kind of oil of semi-contact, application number: 201410161574; Zhu Y., Zhang Y.X., Cai L.F., Fang Q., Anal.Chem., 2013,85:6723 ~ 6731).Be different from the method for generation and manipulation drop in closed channel, the method carries out the manipulation of drop in the planar chip being coated with certain thickness oil phase.The method adopt based on syringe pump, peristaltic pump or other carry out the quantitative extraction of liquid based on pressure-actuated two-way liquid driven system, in the capillary channel drawing point, generate drop, and the drop in capillary is dropped in planar chip by combined high precision D translation platform.Because the drop storage chip being coated with one deck oil phase is a kind of open liquid droplet system, adding and sampling of sample can directly be realized by method capillary being inserted drop.Therefore, liquid drop control system based on two-dimentional droplet array solves that Conventional drop system is difficult to generate a large amount of different chemical composition drop, liquid feeding is complicated, cost is high, be difficult to the feature that samples, in high throughput chemical and bioanalysis and screening, single cell analysis, medical diagnosis etc., have great application potential.But, owing to adopting the liquid measuring method based on syringe pump, peristaltic pump equal pressure actuation techniques, be subject to the impact of mechanical movement precision and capillary channel interface stress, the liquid manipulation volume of its system usually rises at tens of skin and receives upgrading, is difficult to the ultramicron liquid volume that accurately manipulation rises lower than skin.Especially for the system can carrying out ultramicron liquid manipulation in the level of upgrading lower than skin of Multi-example, there is no bibliographical information at present.
