Technical field
The present invention relates to field of biotechnology, are more particularly to the generation device and method of a kind of microlayer model, and its application.
Technical background
In recent years, biotech development proposes increasingly higher demands to droplet treatment technology: in a first aspect, the low loss of sample Demand.For example unicellular sample (such as fertilized eggs) of microsequencing sample, section sample, the rare sample of cancer (such as CTC cell) sample In the preparations of product, characterization technique, the integrality of biological sample is kept to be even more important.And for digital PCR, digital Other digital quantitative technologies such as MDA keep the integrality of sample up to the necessary condition that 99% or more is even more technology, i.e., at sample It needs to guarantee sample loss few as far as possible in reason, detection process.However, using the droplet treatment skill of traditional microfluidic chip solution Art inevitably generates droplet treatment medium residual, and nucleic acid, albumen in sample is caused to wait analysis component loss.
Second aspect, uniformity demands.These for micro-example precision system is standby, detection technique, and need to generate Droplet size is uniform, cannot again excessive difference, cause to bring tendentiousness and uncertainty in subsequent experimental.
The third aspect, high-throughput demand.With being increasing for upstream sample number, the need that extensive sample is prepared simultaneously Ask continuous growth.Existing micro flow chip technology generates the technology of drop, and every instrument is at most only capable of making 8 samples drop simultaneously Change, due to its cumbersome pipe design, fluid control design case is no longer satisfied expansion scale, the needs of flux.

Tubule or tubule group surface need to modify, and the result of modification should make droplet treatment medium be unlikely to spread in micro-pipe nozzle It opens.Droplet treatment medium and the contact angle on surface should be greater than 90 degree.
The device overall structure is divided into three parts.Droplet treatment device (on), collecting pipe (under) two parts composition;Droplet treatment pipe Area and micro-pipe area two parts are held comprising drop.
The effect of droplet treatment device is temporarily to hold droplet treatment medium and generate drop using microcosmic and high inertia force.Its table Face should have low adsorption or so to held droplet treatment medium (usually water phase) and solute.Droplet treatment pipe bottom is micro-pipe Area, micro-pipe area and holding are fully sealed between area, can be bonded or be integrated, so that under inertia force effect, all drops Change medium completely extends across micro-pipe and gets in collecting pipe.

The principle that drop generates can be explained by following calculating:
Critical state equation:
2 π r γ=Gm...... (1)
γ: surface tension, unit (mN.m);R: microchannel diameter.Unit (m);G: centrifugation force value.Unit (N/m2);M: Drop mass.
The density formula of liquid:
V: droplet size.R: liquid-drop diameter.ρ: droplet density.
(2) it brings into (1) and obtains:
However, repeatedly generation etc. is big if under given conditions, the inertia force that adjustable drop is subject to can be continuous Drop.Also, by adjusting: it γ, G, r, ρ, can adjust droplet size (V), to change the drop of unit liquid volume Number.
The adjustment of surface tension γ.By adding ion, bioactive agent composition in water phase, γ can be reduced, drop is made to become smaller. Activating agent can be Span activating agent, Tween activating agent, triton activating agent, fluorine-containing surfactant, such as EA activating agent, perfluor Octanoic acid, perfluor amide etc..γ is proportional to V
The adjustment of G.The size for adjusting inertia force can adjust the size of G especially by the revolving speed of adjustment centrifuge, and G is logical Often at 1,000-1,000,000m/s2 (0.1-100krcf).1/G is proportional to V.
The adjustment of r.Adjust microchannel size, thus it is possible to vary droplet size.Smaller microchannel diameter can produce smaller Drop.R is proportional to V.
The adjustment of ρ fluid density.Such as increase glucose, the solutes such as glycerol, adjustable water density 1.0-1.2g/mL.1/ρ It is proportional to V.
Drop generate speed be it is adjustable, because of the limitation of revolution.Flow velocity, revolution and flow resistance have following relationship.
The pressure difference p of its volume flow Q and pipe both ends, the relationship of flow resistance R:
Q=p/R
Pressure difference p is in inertia force G, the relationship of page height h and fluid density ρ:
P=ρ Gh
The flow resistance R of laminar flow round pipe liquid calculates as follows:
In above formula: the coefficient of viscosity η (cst) of the radius r of micro-pipe, length L and fluid.
By adjusting flow resistance R, acceleration G, liquid level.Can adjust drop generate speed, thus change experiment it is total when Between.
Adjust L capillary pipe length.Design adjustment.It is optional from 10 μm of -10mm.
Adjust r capillary radius.Different size is optional.From 1-100 μm.
Adjust the viscosity of the first liquid of η.Temperature is lower, and viscosity is bigger.
The drop that the method provided by the invention for generating drop generates is uniform, and device is simple, can be with direct combination to centrifugation It is used in the equipment such as machine.By experiment, we are had surprisingly found that, if the first liquid is on the surface of droplet treatment device exit portion It cannot be in hydrophobic state, then can not generate monodisperse drop.When the outlet of droplet treatment device does not contact second liquid, generate Drop have better uniformity.The drop uniformity of generation is good, and can accomplish very high flux.
