To this end, referring to fig. 1 to 4, the sampling head in the embodiment of the present invention includes:
sampling a body;
the sampling cavity 200 is arranged on the first end face of the sampling body, and the sampling cavity 200 and the sampled surface form a sampling area;
the first flow channel 300 is used for injecting an extracting agent, the first flow channel 300 is arranged on the sampling body, the first interface 301 of the first flow channel is positioned on the second end face of the sampling body, and the second interface 302 of the first flow channel is communicated with the sampling cavity 200;
the second flow channel 400 is used for injecting air, the second flow channel 400 is arranged on the sampling body, the first interface 401 of the second flow channel is positioned on the second end face of the sampling body, and the second interface 402 of the second flow channel is communicated with the sampling cavity 200; and
and the third flow channel 500 is used for leading out the sample liquid drop, the third flow channel 500 is arranged on the sample body, the first interface 501 of the third flow channel is positioned on the second end face of the sample body, and the second interface 502 of the third flow channel is communicated with the sampling cavity 200.
When the sampling head is used, the second end face of the sampling head is firstly in parallel contact with a surface to be sampled and is kept still after being completely contacted, and only air exists in the sampling cavity 200 at the moment; secondly, injecting the extracting agent into the sampling cavity 200 through the first flow channel 300, wherein the injection is stopped after the sampling cavity 200 is filled, and the extracting agent is contacted with the sampled surface in the process; then, the extractant is kept in contact with the sampled surface for a certain time, so that the extraction effect is fully generated; then, air is synchronously injected from the second flow channel 400 and extracted from the third flow channel 500, under the driving of air pressure, the liquid in the sampling cavity 200 is conveyed out through the third flow channel 500 in the form of liquid drops to enter the next-stage analysis equipment, and because the air synchronously flows in and out from the two flow channels, negative pressure cannot be formed in the sampling cavity, and the liquid level position of the extractant entering the first flow channel 300 is influenced; finally, the sampling is completed and the sampling head is lifted off the surface to be sampled. The sampling head in the invention is directly contacted with the surface to be sampled, so that sampling can be realized without separation, the sampled surface is not wounded by adopting a liquid drop extraction mode, the sampling cavity is close to the sampled surface, the concentration of the liquid drop of the collected sample is improved, the possibility of information loss of key compounds is reduced, and the sampling quality is improved.
It should be noted that, in the present invention, the sampling body 100 is a solid structure to form the first flow channel 300, the second flow channel 400, the third flow channel 500 and the supporting body of the sampling cavity 200, and may be made of resin, plastic or glass, and is processed by an injection molding process and a 3D printing technology, and when the 3D printing technology is adopted, the ultraviolet curing 3D printing technology is particularly adopted for processing.
The first interface 301 of the first flow channel is used for being externally connected with a pipeline for injecting an extracting agent, the first interface 401 of the second flow channel is used for being externally connected with a pipeline for injecting a positive pressure air source, and the first interface 501 of the third flow channel is used for being externally connected with a pipeline for forming a negative pressure outlet to lead out sampling liquid drops. The second port 302 of the first flow channel communicates with the sampling chamber, the second port 402 of the second flow channel communicates with the sampling chamber, and the second port 502 of the third flow channel communicates with the sampling chamber. The cross sections of the first flow channel 300, the second flow channel 400 and the third flow channel 500 are circular, oval, fan-shaped and the like.
Wherein, since the first flow channel 300 and the second flow channel 400 are respectively filled with the extractant and the air, the second interface 302 of the first flow channel and the second interface 402 of the second flow channel are located at the top of the sampling cavity 200 in order to facilitate the pressurization and the filling of the sampling cavity 200. Therefore, when the extractant is required to be injected, the extractant is gradually injected downwards from the top of the sampling cavity 200 through the second port 302 of the first flow channel, and after the extractant is filled and the extractant is fully contacted with the metabolite on the collected surface, the positive pressure gas source is gradually flushed from the top of the sampling cavity 200 through the second port 402 of the second flow channel, so that the sampling liquid drops in the sampling cavity 200 are pressed into the second port 502 of the third flow channel. In order to enable the high-concentration sampling liquid drops to firstly enter the second interface 502 of the third flow channel, so as to increase the concentration of the sampling liquid drops, and thus the detection detectable rate of subsequent detection can be increased, in the embodiment of the present invention, the second interface 502 of the third flow channel is close to the bottom of the sampling cavity 200.
The aperture of the second interface 302 of the first flow channel is gradually increased along the injection direction of the extractant, so that when the extractant enters the sampling cavity 200 through the first flow channel 300, the extractant firstly enters the sampling cavity 200 under the expansion effect of the second interface 302 of the first flow channel, the speed of the extractant entering the sampling cavity 200 can be gradually reduced, the generation of a turbulent flow phenomenon is reduced, and the phenomenon that the first flow channel 300 is blocked due to a surge phenomenon to influence the injection of the extractant is avoided. The second port 302 of the first flow channel may be concentric with the sampling cavity 200 or may be a non-concentric design.
The cross section of the second port 402 of the second flow passage is a fan-shaped structure. Because the air flow resistance is little and there is not remaining viscous scheduling problem, the second interface shape that second flow channel 400 inserts sampling cavity 200 is designed as the fan-shaped structure that two different concentric circular arcs of radius (minor arc) and the end point line enclose, and the sampling head structure is compacter like this.
The second port 402 of the second flow channel communicates directly with the sampling cavity 200, or the second port 402 of the second flow channel communicates with the second port 302 of the first flow channel and communicates with the sampling cavity 200 through the second port 302 of the first flow channel.
When the second interface 402 of the second flow channel is communicated with the second interface 302 of the first flow channel, the second interface 402 of the second flow channel is flush with the second interface 302 of the first flow channel along the air injection direction. That is, the inner circular arc of the second port 402 of the second flow passage as a fan-shaped structure is concentric with the minimum diameter of the second port 302 of the first flow passage; the outer arc of the second port 402 of the second flow channel is concentric with the largest diameter of the second port 302 of the first flow channel.
For convenience of description, in one embodiment of the present invention, the sampling body 100 includes a first sampling body 101, a second sampling body 102, and a third sampling body 103, wherein the second sampling body 102 is located in the middle of the first sampling body 101 and the third sampling body 103. The first sampling body 101, the second sampling body 102 and the third sampling body 103 are of an integrated structure or a split structure, and when the first sampling body, the second sampling body and the third sampling body are of a split structure, the first sampling body, the second sampling body and the third sampling body are connected through a bonding process.
For the sake of smoothness in injection of the extractant, the portion of the first flow channel 300 located in the first sampling body 101 extends in the axial direction of the first sampling body 101; for the sake of smoothness in air injection, the portion of the second flow channel 400 located in the first sample body 101 extends in the axial direction of the first sample body 101; to derive the smoothness of the sample droplet, the portion of the third flow channel 500 located in the first sample body 101 extends in the axial direction of the first sample body 101.
Further, the portion of first flow channel 300 located in second sampling body 102, the portion of second flow channel 400 located in second sampling body 102, and the portion of third flow channel 500 located in second sampling body 102 are angled toward sampling cavity 200. The angled arrangement enables the first flow channel 300, the second flow channel 400 and the third flow channel 500 to occupy less space on the portion of the second sampling body 102, thereby enabling the second sampling body 102 to have a smaller diameter than the first sampling body 101.
Because the first flow channel 300, the second flow channel 400 and the third flow channel 500 which are positioned on the second sampling body 102 are obliquely arranged, the first flow channel 300, the second flow channel 400 and the third flow channel 500 are all provided with bent parts, and in order to reduce the occurrence of the situation that the sample liquid drops are stuck or damaged due to the existence of the bent parts, the bent parts of the first flow channel 300, the bent parts of the second flow channel 400 and the bent parts of the third flow channel 500 are in smooth transition connection.
In order to further reduce the sampling area, in the embodiment of the present invention, the sampling cavity 200 is located in the third sampling body 103, and the outer surface of the sampling body 100 has a circular arc structure. This does not reduce the diameter of the third sampling body 103, thereby allowing a smaller effective sampling area, while the word sample droplet volume would be smaller, thereby allowing for improved sampling accuracy.
Further, the sampling cavity 200 is of a cylindrical structure or a hemispherical structure, the sampling cavity 200 is of a half-opening structure and is directly contacted with the sampled surface, and the second interface 502 of the third flow channel is closer to the sampled surface, so that the concentration of the sampling liquid drop is improved, and the possibility of information loss of key compounds can be reduced. The area of the sampling cavity 200 in direct contact with the sampled surface can reach millimeter level or even hundred micron level, and the smaller the area sampled by the sampling head, the higher the spatial resolution. The sampling cavity 200 comprises a first sampling cavity 201 and a second sampling cavity 202 which are concentrically arranged, the first sampling cavity 201 is communicated with a second interface 302 of the first flow channel, a second interface 402 of the second flow channel and a second interface 502 of the third flow channel, and the second sampling cavity 202 corresponds to the surface of the sampled tissue. In one embodiment of the present invention, the aperture of the second sampling cavity 202 is larger than the aperture of the first sampling cavity 201.
In order to increase the concentration of the sampling liquid drop, the second interface 502 of the third flow channel is close to the bottom of the sampling cavity 200, for this reason, a part of the third flow channel 500 is located in the third sampling body 103, and a part of the third flow channel 500 located in the third sampling body 103 is smoothly and transitionally connected with a part of the third flow channel 500 located in the second sampling body 102, so that the generation of a dead angle is avoided, and the sample loss and the pollution are reduced.
The invention also discloses a sampling system, which comprises the sampling head. Because the sampling head has the beneficial effects, a sampling system comprising the sampling head also has corresponding effects, which are not described again here.
The invention also discloses a mass spectrum imaging device which comprises the sampling system. Since the sampling system has the above beneficial effects, the mass spectrometry imaging device including the sampling system also has corresponding effects, which are not described herein again.

step S1: the second end surface of the sampling head is in parallel contact with the surface to be sampled and is kept still after being completely contacted;
step S2: injecting an extracting agent into the sampling cavity 200 through the first flow channel 300, stopping injecting after the sampling cavity 200 is full, and keeping the extracting agent in contact with the sampled surface for a certain time;
step S3: simultaneously injecting air from the second flow channel 400 and extracting air from the third flow channel 500, and conveying the liquid in the sampling cavity 200 in the form of liquid drops through the third flow channel 500 under the driving of air pressure;
