Description

Single cell analysis method based on micro-fluidic and hyperspectral imaging
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of cell analysis and identification, in particular to a single cell detection technology combining a hyperspectral image with deep learning.
Background
At present, the cell identification technology is widely applied to various fields such as biology, medicine, industry and the like, and the high-throughput and rapid cell analysis identification technology is very important. The traditional cell analysis and identification method identifies cells based on morphological characteristics of cells or communities, physiological and biochemical reaction characteristics, serological reaction characteristics and the like, and the method is not only time-consuming and labor-consuming, but also related to subjective judgment of operators. The molecular biological detection method can also be used for cell analysis and identification, and comprises PCR technology, nucleic acid hybridization, gene probe technology, gene chip and the like. The method improves the sensitivity of cell detection and identification, reduces the time required by the detection process, but still has difficulty in realizing the rapid analysis and identification of single cells. Single cell sequencing is a technical means for DNA and RNA sequence determination of single cells of organisms, and comprises the main steps of single cell separation, whole genome amplification, next generation sequencing and data analysis, but the single cell sequencing method needs to invade and damage cells and cannot realize in-situ operation of the cells. Mass spectrometry is a common method for analyzing cellular proteins, but this method requires lysis of the cells and a large number of cells for the experiment, which averages and ignores the heterogeneity between cells. In addition to the above methods, cellular components can be detected by labeling methods and non-labeling methods. Labeling methods, which label cells with materials that specifically recognize components and detect the presence and quantity of materials for component analysis, alter cells, reduce reliability, and are only semi-quantitative. The non-labeling method identifies cellular components by detecting their electro-optical and structural properties, however, this method has limited applicability to detecting known cellular components. Therefore, we need to research a label-free non-contact single cell component accurate analysis method.
The acquisition of medical data highly depends on advanced instruments and equipment, the current medical field instruments cannot meet the requirements of unmarked and non-contact diversified atlas scientific research, and the hyperspectral medical research worldwide is in the beginning stage. The high-performance medical high-spectrum analyzer integrates the characteristics of the spectrum and the image to obtain the chemical structure information and the physical appearance information of a target object, so that the advantages of high spectral resolution, multiple wave bands and spectrum combination are utilized. Finally, the positioning, qualitative and quantitative description of the detection target is realized, and further, the accurate diagnosis of the serious disease is realized. The method is combined with the micro-fluidic technology, the hyperspectral microimaging technology and the single cell analysis and identification of an artificial intelligence algorithm, and can be widely applied to early accurate diagnosis and accurate classification (detection of diseased cells and tissues) of major diseases; precise application of the drug (precise detection of antibody secretion); accurate assessment of efficacy (detection of changes in composition of recipient cells); and accurately predicting the prognosis.

The micro-fluidic can accurately control and control micro-scale fluid, the used pipeline is only dozens of microns to hundreds of microns, the detection can be completed only by using very few samples and data, and the micro-fluidic has the characteristics of high flux, integration and light weight and plays an important role in the fields of biology, medicine and the like. Different from common gray level images and color images, the hyperspectral images have a plurality of wave bands, different substances have different spectral curves, classification and the like of the different substances can be completed, and therefore spectral information can reflect information such as component structures of the substances. The hyperspectral microimaging system is applied to single cell analysis, a hyperspectral image of a cell can be obtained, due to the fact that the hyperspectral image is huge in data quantity, the hyperspectral image is difficult to process along with the increase of a sample, a deep learning method is selected to learn the data, and therefore automatic analysis of the sample is achieved.

The washed cells were loaded to generate single-cell droplets.
And setting chip moving step pitch, and arranging the single cell liquid drops on the cell chip to obtain the single cell array.
The material of the chip in the step S1 is any one of a silicon wafer material, a quartz material, a glass material, and an organic polymer.
The specific process of step S2 is:
acquiring a hyperspectral image by using a hyperspectral microimaging system: the method comprises the following steps of building and connecting a microscope, a hyperspectral camera and a computer, placing the single cell array manufactured in the step S1 on a microscope objective table, adjusting a coarse focusing screw and a fine focusing screw of the microscope to make displayed images clearer, setting parameters such as exposure time and the like, and then starting to collect the images, wherein the hyperspectral image collection process is push-broom collection without any change in the collection process.

LFDA linear discriminant analysis: as an optimization algorithm of the LDA, the advantages of the LDA and Local Preserving Projection (LPP) are fused, and not only can a subspace with good inter-class separability be obtained, but also a local structure in the class can be kept. Traditional LDA methods consider all samples in a class to have the same contribution weight, and LFDA treats samples of a class or pattern as independent individuals and gives them a weight to the data-related attributes.
