Description

Laser-induced fluorescence detection system with visual real-time imaging focusing
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of analysis and detection, and particularly relates to a laser-induced fluorescence detection system with visualized real-time imaging focusing.
Background
Laser induced fluorescence detection (LIF) was first proposed by Diebold and Zare in the 70's of the 20 th century in combination with high performance liquid chromatography for the isolation analysis of aflatoxins B1, B2, G1 and G2. The laser has the unique advantages of good monochromaticity, strong light-gathering property and the like, can focus a light beam to a very small area, and has high photon flux, thereby greatly improving the detection sensitivity. At present, the LIF detector is one of the detectors with the highest sensitivity, is suitable for detecting micro-volume samples, and can be used together with a plurality of capillary or microchip separation technologies such as capillary liquid chromatography, capillary electrophoresis, microfluidic chip chromatography and the like. Many samples can generate fluorescence spontaneously or generate fluorescence by derivation to achieve the purpose of fluorescence detection, so the LIF detector becomes one of the first technologies in the fields of analytical chemistry, molecular biology, biomedicine and the like, and has wide application in analytical detection of foods, medicines, environmental pollutants, nucleic acids, proteins, cells and the like.
The LIF detector mainly comprises a light source, an optical system, a detection cell and a light detection element. To achieve highly sensitive detection, LIF detection systems excite fluorescence emission and collect fluorescence signals as efficiently as possible and reduce interference from background signals. Detection cell walls, fluorescence, rayleigh and raman scattering of the eluate, and stray light between optical elements are major factors affecting detection sensitivity. The interference of background stray light is usually reduced by filtering in a spectral, temporal or spatial resolution manner. Spectral filtering is a combination of bandpass and optical filters to remove light outside the emitted fluorescence wavelength range. The time resolution is to eliminate the interference of Rayleigh scattering and Raman scattering light by using pulse laser as an excitation light source and adopting a time resolution technology. The spatial filtering method is to use a pinhole, a slit, etc. to subtract the background stray light outside the detection area and improve the detection selectivity, but the method is cumbersome to operate and has poor applicability.
With the development of micro-nano-scale analysis, the micro-nano-scale separation analysis technology is an urgent problem to be gradually solved, so that the micro-scale development of technologies such as chromatography, electrophoresis and the like is promoted. The capillary and the chip adopt micro-diameter or nano-diameter channels as separation columns, and usually combine with a laser-induced fluorescence detection system to realize quantitative separation and analysis of substances. The separation column with the small inner diameter has the characteristics of high column efficiency, small sample volume consumption, low flow velocity and the like, is widely applied to the field of micro-nano analysis, and has great advantages in separating and analyzing trace substances. The capillary and the chip are combined with laser-induced fluorescence, focusing and other work are required to be realized, usually, a solution containing a fluorescent substance is injected into a channel, the fluorescent substance flowing through a detection window is excited by laser and then emits fluorescence, and the relative position of the detection window and a detection system is adjusted according to the size of a fluorescence signal output by a light detection element to calibrate a light path. However, when the channel size is reduced to the nanometer level, it takes a long time to complete the calibration operation if the position of the detection window cannot be observed. In addition, chromatographic separation is carried out by taking a chromatographic column as a separation medium, the chromatographic column is divided into a filling column, an open column and an integral column according to different stationary phase forms, and the problems of difficult cleaning of a fluorescent reagent during focusing and the like are caused due to the fact that the chromatographic column is filled with a stationary phase or is modified by coating on a wall and the like, so that the detection of a sample is influenced.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the following examples.
Example 1
As shown in fig. 1, the structure schematic diagram of the laser-induced fluorescence detection system with visualization real-time imaging focusing is shown, wherein an LED lamp (13), a filter (14), a diaphragm (15), an objective lens (5), a first dichroic mirror (6) with a cutoff wavelength of 488nm, a second dichroic mirror (7) with a cutoff wavelength of 600nm, and a reflector (16) are on the same longitudinal axis. An optical pump semiconductor laser (1) with the excitation wavelength of 488nm, a neutral density filter (2), a laser filter with the center wavelength of 488nm, a cylindrical lens (4) and a first dichroic mirror (6) with the cut-off wavelength of 488nm are on the same horizontal axis, a laser beam emitted by the optical pump semiconductor laser (1) with the excitation wavelength of 488nm is attenuated through the neutral density filter (2) and purified through the laser filter (3) with the center wavelength of 488nm, linear light spots are formed through one-dimensional integration through the cylindrical lens (4), the linear light spots are reflected through the first dichroic mirror (6) with the cut-off wavelength of 488nm and focused through an objective lens (5), and a sample containing fluorescence is excited at a detection window position to generate a fluorescence signal.
A silicon avalanche photodiode (11), a slit space filter (10), a cylindrical lens (9), a band-pass filter (8) with the central wavelength of 535nm and a second dichroic mirror (7) with the cut-off wavelength of 600nm are on the same horizontal axis, generated fluorescent signals are collected by an objective lens (5), pass through a first dichroic mirror (6) with the cut-off wavelength of 488nm and then are reflected by the second dichroic mirror (7) with the cut-off wavelength of 600nm, stray light is filtered by the band-pass filter (8) with the central wavelength of 535nm and focused by the lens (9), the stray light is further filtered by a slit (10) and then enters the silicon avalanche photodiode (11) for detection, and the silicon avalanche photodiode module is connected with a data acquisition card (12) for data storage.
The reflector (16), the lens (17) and the camera (18) are arranged on the same transverse axis, the LED (13) irradiates above the detection window, is filtered by the optical filter (14), is collected by the objective lens (5) after the light intensity is adjusted by the diaphragm (15), sequentially passes through the two dichroic mirrors, is reflected by the reflector (16), and then reaches the camera (18) after being focused by the lens (17), and the camera is connected with ThorCam software to acquire and display real-time images.
As shown in fig. 2, a comparison graph before and after shaping the laser beam by using the cylindrical lens is shown.
The laser beam is focused by the plano-convex cylindrical lens (4), wherein (a) and (b) in fig. 2 are respectively enlarged images of the laser beam before and after being focused by the plano-convex cylindrical lens, and the incident laser beam with a circular spot shape (fig. 2(a)) is focused along a one-dimensional direction and then transformed and shaped into a linear spot (fig. 2(b)) laser beam. The width of the focused linear light spot is reduced by nearly 3.4 times compared with the diameter of a circular light spot, and the linear light spot has higher photon flow in unit area. The linear light spot laser beam is focused by the objective lens and is incident into the capillary channel to detect the lamella area in the channel, thereby improving the spatial resolution capability of the detection system and being more beneficial to the analysis and detection of the micro area on the micro-nano channel.
As shown in fig. 3, it is a diagram of real-time imaging focusing result of capillary visualization, and image acquisition is performed by using ThorCam software.
The capillary detection window is fixed on an x-y-z three-dimensional translation stage, the adjusting direction of the relative position of the capillary in the radial direction (cross section direction) and the objective (or laser) is defined as an x axis, the adjusting direction between the capillary axial direction and the objective is defined as a y axis, and the adjusting direction of the distance between the capillary and the objective is defined as a z axis (see fig. 3 (a)). Where an imaging calibration procedure is performed on a 450nm radius capillary tube (with solution injected into the tube), the y-axis position can be directly observed for adjustment. When the x-axis is adjusted, when the laser is focused into the capillary channel, a light spot (20) in the capillary channel can be observed on the image, a perpendicular line (21) is drawn on the position of the light spot on the capillary in the software as shown in fig. 3(b), and a curve (VLP) is obtained according to the light intensity distribution on the perpendicular line as shown in fig. 3 (c). When the laser beam is collimated and enters the center of the capillary channel, the brightness of the light spot is maximum, and the height of the spectrum peak at the corresponding position in the VLP reaches the maximum. When the position of the laser beam relative to the capillary cross-section shifts, the spot brightness decreases or disappears (iii in fig. 3 (d)), corresponding to a decrease or disappearance of the spectral peak height in the VLP (iv in fig. 3 (d)). Based on the adjustment, the x axis is adjusted, so that the laser beam is collimated and enters the center of the capillary channel to reach the optimal position. When the distance between the capillary and the objective lens is in the optimal position when the z-axis is adjusted, the inner wall of the capillary becomes transparent, defined as 0nm at this time (fig. 3(e)0nm), and the corresponding VLP approaches a smooth straight line. When the distance is decreased or far away, the capillary will appear in different images, (FIG. 3(e)) +10nm and-10 nm images are the images of the capillary corresponding to the increase and decrease in distance of 10nm, respectively, and the corresponding VLP will also fluctuate. The z-axis position is calibrated by this method.
As shown in fig. 4, it is a chip visualization real-time imaging focusing result diagram, and image acquisition is performed by using ThorCam software.
The chip is fixed on an x-y-z three-dimensional translation table, the adjusting direction of the relative position of the radial direction (cross section direction) of the channel and the objective lens (or laser) is defined as an x axis, the adjusting direction between the axial direction of the channel and the objective lens is defined as a y axis, and the adjusting direction of the distance between the chip and the objective lens is defined as a z axis. Here, an imaging calibration operation was performed on a chip with a channel size of 5 μm, and the y-axis position was directly observed to be adjusted, similarly to the capillary calibration operation. When the x-axis and the z-axis are adjusted, the light spot brightness and the VLP spectrum peak are changed along with the relative position and the distance between the channel and the objective lens. When the x axis is adjusted, when the laser beam is collimated and enters the center position of the chip channel, the light spot brightness is maximum, and the height of the spectrum peak at the corresponding position in the VLP reaches the maximum. When the laser beam is shifted from the channel position, the spot brightness decreases or disappears, and the height of the corresponding spectral peak in the VLP decreases or disappears (fig. 4 (a)). When the distance between the chip and the objective lens is changed while adjusting the z-axis, the VLP spectrum peak also fluctuates correspondingly (FIG. 4(b)), thereby focusing the chip channel.
The visual calibration of the detection window and the LIF detection system brings great convenience to on-column detection of the micro-nano scale channel, can avoid the complexity of focusing by using a fluorescent reagent, and also avoids the problem of difficult cleaning caused by fluorescent focusing for the separation column coated with a modified wall (such as a narrow-diameter porous layer open tubular column).
As shown in the figure5Shown is a graph of the experimental result of detecting fluorescein by capillary chromatography.
Sample preparation: a fluorescein sodium solution with the concentration of 10 pmol/L; a chromatographic column: a quartz capillary tube having an inner diameter of 1 μm and an outer diameter of 360 μm, a total length of 34cm and an effective length of 29 cm; buffer solution: 10mmol/L Tris-EDTA solution, pH 8.0; sample introduction conditions are as follows: 100psi, 10 s; driving pressure: 1000 psi; FIG. 3 is a chromatogram obtained by separating a 10pmol/L sample of a sodium fluorescein solution under the present test conditions. The average signal-to-noise ratio of the chromatographic signal peaks was about 3, and the detection limit of the system for sodium fluorescein was 10 pmol/L. According to the sample injection time, the flow rate and the concentration, the detection system can achieve the unimolecular level detection of the fluorescein sodium.
