Description

Rapid preparation instrument for micro-fluidic cell amplification microcarrier and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of biomedical engineering, in particular to a rapid micro-fluidic cell amplification microcarrier preparation instrument and application thereof.
Background
Stem cells are a class of cells with high self-renewal and multipotentiality, are seed cells that constitute all functional cells of the body, and have the reputation of "universal cells". Under specific in vivo or in vitro conditions, stem cells can proliferate in large quantities and can differentiate into many types of cells, such as fat, bone, cartilage, muscle, tendon, ligament, nerve, liver, cardiac muscle, endothelium, etc. Stem cells are the most influential seed cells in the fields of tissue engineering, regenerative medicine, and the like, because of their advantages of excellent self-renewal ability, potential to differentiate into various cell types, ability to be extracted from the adult body, excellent immunoregulatory function, and the like. Stem cell therapy overcomes the limitations of clinical routine therapy and opens up a new idea for regenerative medicine and the treatment of other human diseases.
In the field of tissue engineering, a large number of stem cells are required to be planted in the interior of a scaffold material and at a tissue defect, and the content of the stem cells in a human body, particularly an adult human body, is relatively low, and extraction and separation are difficult. Therefore, the in vitro large-scale expansion of stem cells is very important, while the traditional in vitro stem cell culture technology mainly utilizes a culture dish for two-dimensional culture, has low efficiency and insufficient space utilization rate, needs multiple subcultures for obtaining a certain number of stem cells, and reduces the cell proliferation capacity and differentiation potential after each subculture digestion. The problem is well solved by the appearance of the biocompatible microcarrier, and the efficiency and the quality of stem cell culture can be greatly improved.
At present, a homogenizer, a stirrer and the like are generally used for preparing biocompatible microcarriers, and two mutually insoluble phases are emulsified under mechanical force or shearing force to obtain micron-sized and submicron-sized spheres, but the micron-sized and submicron-sized spheres obtained by the method have particles with wide particle size distribution, even if process variables are optimized, microspheres uniform for a certain material can be obtained, but process parameters are not wide, and the method is hardly suitable for other materials. Various types of microfluidic devices have been developed to produce microparticles with different morphologies by precisely controlling the hydrodynamic conditions and the design of microfluidic channels. However, most microfluidic devices are limited to Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), and the problems of channel blockage, swelling, leakage and the like are easily caused in the process of preparing microspheres. Therefore, the preparation of the biocompatible microcarrier is often harsh in material selection, complex in preparation process, low in laboratory preparation efficiency and expensive in cost. How to realize the large-scale rapid preparation of the biocompatible microcarrier has important significance for the clinical application of stem cells.

The method for preparing the water-soluble collagen microspheres by using the micro-fluidic cell amplification microcarrier rapid preparation instrument comprises the following steps:
(1) a 10% water-soluble collagen water solution is contained in the first liquid storage tank 1, a 2% span-80 toluene solution is contained in the second liquid storage tank 2, and the temperature of the water-soluble collagen water solution is 50 ℃;
(2) controlling two power pumps 8 to enable the water-soluble collagen aqueous solution to enter a first liquid guide branch pipe 5 through a first connecting pipe 4 at a speed of 0.4mL/min, enabling the toluene solution to enter a second liquid guide branch pipe 7 through a second connecting pipe 6 at a speed of 1.6mL/min, generating an oil-water interface after the water-soluble collagen aqueous solution at the tail end of the first liquid guide branch pipe 5 contacts the toluene solution, wrapping the water-soluble collagen aqueous solution in the toluene solution to form water-soluble collagen solution microspheres, and enabling the water-soluble collagen solution microspheres to enter a collecting tank 3 along the toluene solution along the second liquid guide branch pipe 7; after the water-soluble collagen solution microspheres enter the collecting tank 3, in the process that the collecting tank 3 receives the water-soluble collagen solution microspheres, the toluene solution in the collecting tank 3 is always in a stirring state, so that the water-soluble collagen solution microspheres can be prevented from being deposited and gathered to be adhered;
(3) stirring at room temperature for 10-12h to volatilize water in the microspheres of the water-soluble collagen solution to obtain the water-soluble collagen microspheres, wherein the stirring speed is 300 rpm.
The specific flow rate difference of the water-soluble collagen aqueous solution and the toluene solution ensures that the prepared microspheres have stable shapes and uniform sizes. It is important to control the proper flow rate difference, if the flow rate difference is too small, the discontinuous phase cannot be formed, the water-in-oil droplets cannot be formed, the conduit may be blocked by the side that should form the discontinuous phase, and if the flow rate difference is too large, the sphericity of the formed droplets may be poor because the influence of the shear force on the discontinuous phase is greater than the interfacial tension.
As shown in FIG. 3, the water-soluble collagen microspheres prepared by the above method of the present invention have uniform size.
The continuous toluene phase and the discontinuous water-soluble collagen aqueous solution phase are controlled by two precise air pumps to be respectively and continuously introduced into the first connecting pipe 4 and the second connecting pipe 6 at independently adjustable flow rates, the water-soluble collagen aqueous solution flows out from the tail end of the first liquid guide branch pipe 5 to be contacted with the toluene solution, and based on capillary instability, the surface area of the water-soluble collagen aqueous solution needs to be reduced under the action of interfacial tension, so that the water-soluble collagen aqueous solution is decomposed into small fragments and then contracted into spherical water-soluble collagen liquid drops, so that the surface area is reduced as much as possible. Therefore, the discontinuous water-soluble collagen liquid drop phase is completely surrounded by the toluene continuous phase, so that the discontinuous water-soluble collagen liquid drop can be prevented from contacting the tube wall, and the polymer particles can be prevented from forming in the capillary tube to cause blockage and the like. So as to finally form micron-sized spheres with uniform size to be collected in the collecting tank 3.
When the water-soluble collagen microspheres are specifically prepared, a toluene solution does not exist in the collecting tank 3 at first, and the toluene solution enters the collecting tank 3 at first due to the high flow rate of the toluene solution, and falls into the toluene solution in the collecting tank 3 after the water-soluble collagen solution contacts with the toluene solution to form microspheres, so that the water-soluble collagen microspheres cannot be deformed.
Before microspheres are prepared, a proper amount of solution is reserved in the collecting tank in advance, and because the flow rate of the toluene solution controlled by the power pump is slow, the number of the prepared microspheres collected in the collecting tank is basically saturated, and when one-time microsphere preparation is completed, the liquid level height of the toluene solution cannot be very high, and the toluene solution does not need to be worried about overflowing from the collecting tank.
The invention realizes the accurate control of the size of the water-soluble collagen microspheres by controlling the concentration of the water-soluble collagen and the flow rates of the toluene continuous phase and the discontinuous phase of the water-soluble collagen aqueous solution. Besides the water-soluble collagen microcarrier, the method can also be used for preparing microcarriers of various materials, and only needs to select proper immiscible two-phase liquids, such as various hydrophobic polymers, organic monomers, hydrophilic polymers and the like, so that the method has universality, takes a precise air pump as a power source, and has high automation; the number of the first branched liquid guiding pipe 5 and the second branched liquid guiding pipe 7 is plural, and the microcarrier can be mass-produced.
The microspheres with uniform diameters prepared by the preparation instrument are not only in the aspect of stem cell culture, but also have important significance in the aspects of cosmetic preparation, electronic printing, drug delivery, tissue engineering and the like.
Comparative example 1: compared with the embodiment 1, the difference is that the first branch drainage pipe 5 has an outer diameter of 0.6mm and an inner diameter of 0.4mm, and the second branch drainage pipe 7 has an outer diameter of 1.2mm and an inner diameter of 0.8 mm; the first branch conduit 5 is inserted into the second branch conduit 7 by 4cm, and the second branch conduit 7 has a length of 20 cm.
Comparative example 2: the difference from example 1 is that the aqueous solution of water-soluble collagen was fed into the first branched liquid guiding pipe 5 through the first connecting pipe 4 at a rate of 0.5mL/min, and the toluene solution was fed into the second branched liquid guiding pipe 7 through the second connecting pipe 6 at a rate of 2.5 mL/min.
The particle size distribution of the water-soluble collagen microspheres prepared in example 1, comparative example 1 and comparative example 2 was measured. The results are shown in Table 1.
