Description

Cancer cell separator and control system based on cells deformation amount and surface acoustic wave
Technical field
It is the present invention relates to cell sorting separation technology field, in particular to a kind of based on cells deformation amount and surface acoustic wave Cancer cell separator and control system.
Background technique
Cancer is a kind of major disease for seriously endangering human health, and morbidity and mortality become in what is risen year by year Gesture.For the cell of identical source, the cell after canceration is softer than normal cell, it is easier to be deformed, it is easier to cancer hair Raw transfer.For a long time, mechanical phenotype have always been considered as be in quantization cell the changes of function of physiology and pathological origin without mark Note method.This method is verified under cell differentiation and the background of pernicious transfer, and has expedited the emergence of many basic research sides The development of method.Wherein, the change of single celled morphotropism can be used as a kind of important indicator of biological study.Relative to biology Molecular marked compound, the index of this unmarked deformability do not need some pre-treatment steps such as dyeing, antibody processing, can save Save more operating costs.
For cell during canceration, the deformation properties of cell just have occurred that variation.In the different canceration stages Cell, deformability are different.This shows the rigidity by measuring cell, however, it would be possible to distinguish and be in different canceration journeys The cell of degree, this provides a kind of possibility for occurrence and development of the monitoring cancer before invasion to invasion.The morphotropism of cell can be with As the sensitive labels of cell carcinogenesis, therefore cell rigidity is measured with important clinical meaning.Current detecting cell morphotropism Method mainly have Atomic Force Microscopy, means of micropipette aspiration technique, cell impression, laser diffractometry, fluid shearing method etc..This A little measurement methods respectively have advantage and disadvantage, if micropipette aspiration method is one of current research common method of cyto-mechanics, but this side Method can only once reflect individual cells morphotropism, and detection rates are low (10-100 cell/h), be not suitable for clinical application;And atom Force microscope method is complicated for operation, and equipment is expensive, and detection rates are equally very low.Therefore, a kind of cancer cell shape of high throughput is designed The method of variable be very it is necessary to.
The rigidity of high throughput detection diseased region cell, the stage that not only potential can be judged patient and be in cancer, and It can be classified according to the difference of cell rigidity to cell.Technology of today is only limited to the rigidity of detection cell, does not consider The foundation that this unmarked feature of cell is separated as cell.Deformability signature based on cell as separation mark for The research and diagnosis of cancer have great potential significance, can carry out cancer by stages, recurrence detection, cancer drug resistance molecule point Analysis etc..
Currently, traditional cell separation technology such as centrifugal process and filtration method time-consuming, low yield, the sample size of needs are big, no It is suitble to the analysis of micro precious sample.Nowadays, the microchannel of micro-fluidic chip narrows down to micron order, can accurately manipulate minute yardstick Fluid, the consumption of sample and reagent is greatly lowered, and the reaction time is fast, is very suitable to cell separation.With micro- The development of fluidics, surface acoustic wave start to be introduced on micro-fluidic chip, the separation and manipulation for particle, drop, cell. Particle will receive acoustic radiation force and viscous force in the micro-fluidic chip of surface acoustic wave, for being greater than the particle of critical dimension, sound Radiant force plays a leading role, and particle is mobile to node location;For being less than the particle of critical dimension, viscous force counteracts major part Acoustic radiation force, result in the lateral movement of very little, thus realize particle is efficiently separated.In micro-fluidic sound field, It is closely related to act on the size of the acoustic radiation force of particle and the size of particle, density, compressible three, and passes through Adjust the driving frequency of interdigital transducer, thus it is possible to vary separate the critical dimension of particle, therefore the miniflow based on surface acoustic wave Control chip separates relatively flexibly cell.
Nowadays the separation method based on surface acoustic wave is carried out according to cell size size and density, this allows for separating Cancer cell be that ensure that consistency in size, and specificity cannot be guaranteed.
