Description

Microfluidic pouch, fluid sample processing device and nucleic acid extraction method

Technical Field

The application particularly relates to a microfluidic bag, a fluid sample processing device and a nucleic acid extraction method, and belongs to the technical field of microfluidics.

Background

Nucleic acid is a carrier of genetic information, is the most important biological information molecule, and is the main object of molecular biology research, therefore, the extraction of nucleic acid is the most important and basic operation in molecular biology experimental technology.

The traditional full-automatic nucleic acid extraction technology is almost completely realized on the basis of a large XYZ three-dimensional platform and on the basis of a design that a liquid-transferring gun capable of accurately and quantitatively transferring liquid is additionally arranged on a Z axis. The technical advantages of the mode are that the mechanical motion part is mature in design, the manufactured work station has large flux, the use cost is relatively low and controllable, and therefore the mode is widely applied.

In the nucleic acid extraction process, the sample needs to undergo several steps of cell lysis, adsorption and purification of nucleic acid, and elution and collection of nucleic acid. For most nucleic acid samples, these steps are performed under liquid reaction conditions. In order to complete a multi-step reaction scheme, the nucleic acid-adsorbing support, such as magnetic beads, may undergo several transfers from one reactor to another, or the same reactor may be used continuously but the reagents used need to be transferred out of the reactor after each step. If the nucleic acid extraction is performed by using the fully automatic nucleic acid extraction system, the transfer is performed in an exposed environment. No matter how elaborate the design of the system is, when a large number of detection samples are adjacently placed in a development space and liquid transfer is carried out through the movement of an XYZ three-dimensional platform, cross contamination among the samples, especially cross contamination caused by aerosol formation of high-concentration samples, can be almost impossible to completely eliminate. At the very least, the controllability of aerosol contamination is difficult to prove, especially in view of the conditions of use of the instrumentation and the uncontrollable factors of the environment of use.

Another problem with using XYZ three-dimensional platforms is that their flexibility of use is highly limited. For most medical units such as hospitals, the daily detection amount of each detection item is usually counted by several or dozens, and when the sample collection time and the detection time have uncertainty, the technical characteristics of the XYZ three-dimensional platform make the arrangement and use thereof extremely inapplicable to the small-flux and multi-batch use mode.

The advent of microfluidic technology has made possible continuous, highly integrated experimental manipulations in small, enclosed spaces. This type Of product is commonly referred to as POCT (Point Of Care test) test product because Of its portability and simplicity Of operation. Among them, Cepheid GeneXpert in the United states and FilmArray in Merrie, France are most well known. On the other hand, the functional requirements of microfluidic products and the characteristics of disposable consumables thereof often result in that the production cost cannot be fused with the current price system in the market. Detection products which are more and more popular in microfluidic technology but are rarely applied in large scale appear.

Microfluidic technology targets "Sample to result" (Sample to Answer) from birth as a product feature, emphasizing the completeness of the procedure and simplicity of operation. However, this pursuit of flow integrity neglects the current situation of application, that is, the existing large number of testing requirements in the medical diagnostic industry cannot be changed from complete laboratory manual operation to full-automatic operation from sample to result due to system and management, user habits, or limitations of testing reagent compliance suppliers. What is further needed for these existing assays is an automated nucleic acid extraction product that is simple to operate, flexible to use, and capable of addressing the most time-consuming and labor-intensive "sample-to-nucleic acid" process in molecular assays. In addition, the worldwide "Laboratory Developed Test" (LDT) cannot improve efficiency by means of integrated microfluidic "sample-to-result" automation technology, but only "sample-to-nucleic acid". The need to extend the traditional microfluidic products of "sample to result" to fully automated "sample to nucleic acid" that include fewer handling steps but are more flexible to apply is clear and urgent.

On the other hand, different cell types require different cell disruption methods for this link of cell lysis. Some processes require only mild processing conditions, while others require drastic methods. For example, ultrasound generators can be used to open the cell membranes of most animals, but are not suitable for certain plant cells because the cell walls are very resistant to ultrasound. Lysis of animal cells can usually be achieved chemically, but bacteria, fungi etc. are much more difficult. These microorganisms often require cell lysis by methods of strongly disrupting cell walls such as cavitation (sound) by high frequency sound, beating (bead milling) by transmission of glass microspheres, and mechanical disruption by a blender. Although these cell lysis methods are widely used in laboratory operations, it is difficult and important to apply them to tiny devices, especially to highly integrated devices for POCT (point-of-care testing), such as microfluidic chips. In addition, in the field of microchemical engineering and the like, there is a demand for sufficient mixing of reaction raw materials in a micro reaction system, but there has been no method which is particularly effective for achieving the object.

(2) When the microfluidic bag is used, the whole experimental process is completely sealed in the bag, so that the possibility of cross contamination among a plurality of adjacent or nonadjacent liquid samples in the experimental process (such as the operation process of nucleic acid extraction) due to rapid vibration or the movement of a sample adding gun is eliminated.

(4) After the completion of the experimental process (e.g., nucleic acid extraction process) using the microfluidic pouch, the obtained product (e.g., nucleic acid template extracted from the biological sample) is introduced into the sample tube with the sealing gland, which is hermetically connected to the microfluidic pouch, through the sample outlet connected to a closed microchannel. Such closed transfer ensures that the operation of complete closure during the experiment further continues to the transfer of the nucleic acid template.

Detailed Description

Some embodiments of the present disclosure provide a microfluidic pouch comprising a laminated film, at least one fixed binding region, a plurality of functional chambers, at least one valve region, and at least one inlet port, the fixed binding region, the functional chambers, and the valve region all being distributed within the laminated film, and the functional chambers having a size and a shape defined by boundaries of the fixed binding regions, one of the inlet ports being connected to a corresponding one of the functional chambers;

the first film and the second film in the functional cavity can be switched between a state of mutually separating and a state of mutually attaching under the action of pressure, wherein when the first film and the second film in the functional cavity are in the state of mutually attaching, no physical space capable of containing fluid exists in the functional cavity, and when the first film and the second film in the functional cavity are in the state of mutually separating, particularly when the two films are separated and the flexible film in the functional cavity is deformed, the functional cavity can contain fluid, namely form a liquid storage cavity which is mainly bag-shaped and can be also called a liquid storage bag or a micro-bag, and the fluid comprises liquid and/or gas;

the plurality of functional chambers comprise a central chamber and a plurality of auxiliary chambers, and each auxiliary chamber is respectively connected with the central chamber through one disposable valve structure;

This application is through forming micro-fluidic bag with a plurality of film compounds to make liquid storage cavity wherein etc. produce, disappear along with the entering of liquid, flow out correspondingly, not only can stop "dead volume" problem to appear when the different regions of fluid in micro-fluidic bag shift, show the utilization ratio that improves the fluid, can also effectively avoid current micro-fluidic bag internal fluid thoroughly shift in can not following certain liquid storage cavity, but can remain and lead to defects such as pollution a little or trace. Meanwhile, the microfluidic pouch has the advantages of easiness in preparation, low cost, short development period and the like.

In one embodiment, when the central chamber is in a limit opening state and the magnetic field intensity in the central chamber is above a set value, magnetic particles contained in the fluid flowing through the central chamber can be efficiently captured in the central chamber by the magnetic field;

and when the central chamber is in a fully open state and the magnetic field intensity in the central chamber is less than the set value, the magnetic particles can freely flow into or out of the central chamber along with the fluid.

The set value can be adjusted according to the size of the central cavity, the material and the specification of the magnetic particles and the like.

The magnetic Particles may be magnetic microbeads, microspheres, etc., such as Superparamagnetic Particles (Superparamagnetic Particles).

In one embodiment, fluid can be caused to flow between two of said auxiliary chambers containing fluid through the central chamber when a set pressure is alternately applied to the two auxiliary chambers.

Have the central chamber who opens completely, partially open and close three kinds of states completely through the setting in this application to cooperate it with two at least auxiliary chamber, and combine to exert the magnetic field intensity in central chamber and regulate and control, can conveniently, realize the seizure to the magnetic bead high-efficiently.

In one embodiment, when a set pressure is applied to one of the auxiliary chambers containing fluid, the disposable valve structure connected between the auxiliary chamber and the central chamber can be opened by the fluid pressure, thereby allowing fluid to flow into the central chamber.

The disposable valve structure may employ a variety of weak link structures known in the art for isolating two functional chambers from each other and which may be broken from a closed state to an open state under certain heat, electromagnetic radiation or force.

Preferably, the first film and the second film are detachably combined in the valve area to form the disposable valve structure, and the disposable valve structure can be broken under the impact of fluid with certain pressure so as to change from the closed state to the open state. For example, when a set pressure is applied to one functional chamber containing a fluid, the fluid may be caused to be impact-broken against an irreversible disposable valve structure disposed between the functional chamber and another functional chamber, thereby allowing the fluid to enter the other functional chamber. The disposable valve structure can physically constitute "valves" between different reservoir chambers, which can be simply and quickly closed by selective squeezing, and which have no physical space after closing, are easier to operate and do not result in fluid being wasted compared to conventional valves.

In one embodiment, a plurality of the auxiliary chambers are disposed around a central chamber in a direction coplanar with the laminated film. In this way, fluid can be allowed to pass directly from the auxiliary chamber into the central chamber without flowing across the chambers, loss of fluid or some substance in the fluid can be reduced, and contamination of other chambers can be avoided.

In one embodiment, the microfluidic pouch further comprises at least a first connection region distributed within the laminated film, the first connection region also being sized and shaped by the boundary of the fixation bond region; the first connecting area is connected between two adjacent functional chambers, for example two adjacent auxiliary chambers, and the first film and the second film are detachably combined in the first connecting area, wherein when the first film and the second film are separated from each other, a first narrow microfluidic channel is formed in the first connecting area, and when a set pressure is applied to one functional chamber containing fluid, the fluid can pass through the first microfluidic channel at a high speed (for example, the flow speed is 5-20 m/s) and enter the other functional chamber. The pressure difference between the two functional chambers and the high velocity outflow of fluid may create a cavitation-like effect (cavitation) that causes bubbles in the fluid to undergo growth and collapse, which may in turn cause more efficient lysis of thick-walled cell walls or some microchemical reactions in the fluid to proceed more rapidly and completely. In the application, the pressure, the length and the width of the first microfluidic channel and the like can be adjusted to change the flow rate of the fluid flowing through the first microfluidic channel and the like, so as to achieve a more ideal cavitation effect.

Preferably, the first film and the second film in the first connection area can be switched between two states of mutual separation and mutual attachment under the action of pressure, when the first film and the second film in the first connection area are separated from each other, the first microfluidic channel is formed in the first connection area, and when the first film and the second film in the first connection area are attached to each other, the first microfluidic channel disappears, so that the first connection area no longer has a physical space capable of containing liquid and gas.

In addition, after the first microfluidic channel is opened, the communication part between the two functional chambers is only the first microfluidic channel, and the first microfluidic channel can also be regarded as an opened valve.

In one embodiment, a quantity of solid particles, particularly solid particles composed of inert materials that do not react with the fluid, such as glass microspheres, hard resin microspheres, magnetic microspheres, ceramic particles, metal particles, and the like, may be added to the fluid. When flowing with the fluid and through the first microfluidic channel, the solid particles may rapidly and repeatedly collide with some substances in the fluid, such as cells or certain chemicals, causing effective lysis of difficult-to-lyse cellular structures or thorough mixing of the chemicals.

In one embodiment, the microfluidic pouch further comprises a fluid blocking mechanism distributed in the first microfluidic channel and spaced from at least one side of the inner wall of the first microfluidic channel. By providing these fluid blocking structures, the flow direction, flow rate, etc. of the fluid in the first microfluidic channel can be regulated. In some cases, the fluid blocking mechanism may also collide with the high velocity fluid passing through the first microfluidic channel at high velocity and further facilitate more rapid, frequent contact of chemicals or destructive lysis of thick walled cells and the like in the fluid. Wherein the fluid blocking means may be formed by a partial area of the fixation bond region extending into the first attachment region.

In one embodiment, the microfluidic pouch further comprises a collision structure disposed in front of the outlet of the first microfluidic channel and configured to collide with the fluid output from the first microfluidic channel. By providing the collision structure, the fluid, when exiting the first microfluidic channel, may impinge on the collision structure at extremely high velocities, and these intense collisions further promote more rapid, frequent contact of certain hard-to-break structures or chemicals in the fluid. Wherein the collision structure may be regular or irregular shaped with a certain distance to the outlet of the first microfluidic channel.

In one embodiment, one of said auxiliary chambers is connected to another adjacent one of said auxiliary chambers by one of said disposable valve structures and one of said first connection regions.

In one embodiment, the microfluidic pouch further comprises a liquid outlet and a second connection region, the liquid outlet being connected to a functional chamber (e.g., an auxiliary chamber) by a second connection region, the second connection region also being distributed within the laminated film, the first film and the second film can be switched between a state of being separated from each other and a state of being attached to each other under pressure in the second connection region, the first film and the second film in the second connecting area can be switched between a state of mutually separating and a state of mutually attaching under the action of pressure, wherein when the first film and the second film are separated from each other in the second connection region, a second microfluidic channel for fluid to pass through is formed in the second connection region, and when the first film and the second film are attached to each other in the second connection region, the physical space capable of containing fluid and gas in the second connection region disappears. Through setting up the liquid outlet, can derive the fluid after micro-fluidic bag is handled. The second connecting area can form a valve which is easy to open or close and has no physical space after being closed between the functional cavity and the liquid outlet, thereby being beneficial to outputting the fluid almost without residue and also being capable of preventing the pollutants in the external environment from entering the micro-fluidic bag.

By arranging the irreversible disposable valve structure and the third connecting area, a structure similar to a one-way valve can be formed, and the interior of the microfluidic bag can be better isolated from the external environment.

In the present application, the pressure action may be a pressure provided by a force application mechanism (e.g., a pressing mechanism) cooperating with each of the function chambers, the first connection region, the second connection region, and the third connection region. In some cases, the pressure effect may further include stress generated by the flexible film of the first film, the second film after deformation, and the like.

Referring to fig. 1-2, the microfluidic pouch provided in this embodiment may be used for extracting nucleic acid, and mainly includes a laminated film 1000, a liquid inlet port 2000, and a liquid outlet port 3000. The laminated film 1000, the liquid inlet port 2000 and the liquid outlet port 3000 may be integrated by hot-press welding, ultrasonic welding, chemical bonding, or the like.

The laminated film 1000 may also be referred to as a pouch body, and is mainly formed by laminating a first film 1001 and a second film 1002. At least one of the first film 1001 and the second film 1002 is preferably a flexible film having a longitudinal stretching property. For example, the first film includes, but is not limited to, a composite film formed by combining one or more of a PET film, a PE film, a PP film, a PA film, a PS film, and a PI film, and is preferably a composite film. The second film includes, but is not limited to, a composite film made by co-extrusion or composite bonding of one or more of a PET film, a PE film, a PP film, a PA film, a PS film, and a PI film, such as an aluminum-plated film or an aluminum foil film, and is preferably a composite film.

In this embodiment, one or more fixed bonding areas and a plurality of functional chambers may be defined in the laminated film 1000 in the film plane direction. Further, the fixedly bonded area divides the entire laminated film 1000 into a plurality of functional chambers in the film plane direction, i.e., the size and shape of the functional chambers are defined by the boundaries of the fixedly bonded area. The first film and the second film are irreversibly combined in the fixed combination area through ultrasonic welding, bonding, hot pressing and the like, and the first film and the second film can be switched between two states of mutual separation and mutual attachment in the functional cavity under the action of external force. Specifically, when fluid with a certain pressure is injected into the functional chamber, the first film and the second film in the functional chamber are deformed and separated from each other under the action of the fluid pressure, so that the functional chamber is in a bag structure and can contain liquid and gas. When sufficient pressure is applied to the functional chamber by a pressing mechanism and the like, the first film and the second film in the functional chamber are attached to each other, and the physical space for containing fluid and gas in the functional chamber disappears.

In this embodiment, the functional chambers are mainly used as reservoir chambers, which are respectively a sample cell 1101, a lysis cell 1103, a binding solution cell 1104, a first washing solution cell 1105, a second washing solution cell 1106, an elution solution cell 1107, a central chamber 1108, a first spare cell 1109, a second spare cell 1110, and the like. And the liquid storage chambers respectively have corresponding liquid inlets, such as a sample liquid inlet 1301, a lysis solution liquid inlet 1302, a binding solution liquid inlet 1303, a first washing solution liquid inlet 1304, a second washing solution liquid inlet 1305, an eluent liquid inlet 1306 and the like. The sample inlet 1301 may be connected to an inlet port 2000.

The sample cell 1101, the lysis cell 1103, the binding solution cell 1104, the first washing solution cell 1105, the second washing solution cell 1106, the elution solution cell 1107, the first spare cell 1109, the second spare cell 1110, and the like are distributed in two dimensions as auxiliary chambers, and surround the central chamber 1108 in the center. Under the scenes of needing magnetic beads to assist in capturing nucleic acid and the like, an auxiliary chamber (which can be named as a magnetic bead capturing chamber) needing a magnetic bead capturing function is directly connected with a central chamber through a valve, so that the magnetic beads are prevented from flowing across the chambers, the loss of the magnetic beads is reduced, and the pollution of reagents brought into other chambers is avoided. Furthermore, when a large-volume solution magnetic bead cleaning and capturing function needs to be executed, the reaction solution containing the magnetic beads can flow back and forth through the central chamber, and the design structure ensures that the central chamber does not need to drive liquid through the compressed volume, so that the flowing speed of the liquid in the central chamber is reduced to the maximum extent, and the magnetic bead capturing efficiency is improved.

Before liquid and gas are not injected, the first film and the second film are tightly attached together in the functional chambers, and no physical space exists. After corresponding liquid and gas are injected into the corresponding functional chambers through the sample adding holes, the liquid generates internal pressure due to the longitudinal tensile property of the flexible film, so that the first film and the second film are deformed and separated to form a liquid storage chamber. When the liquid in the liquid storage cavity is extruded out due to the pressure provided by the extruding mechanism and the like and the stress of the flexible film, the first film and the second film are attached to each other again in the corresponding functional cavity, and the physical space disappears.

In this embodiment, one or more valve regions may be defined in the laminated film 1000 along the film plane direction. An irreversible disposable valve structure is distributed in the valve area, the disposable valve structure is connected between two adjacent functional chambers, when the disposable valve structure is in a closed state, the two adjacent functional chambers are isolated from each other, and when the disposable valve structure is changed into an open state, fluid can flow between the two adjacent functional chambers. In this embodiment, the first film and the second film are detachably bonded in the valve area to form the disposable valve structure. The term "detachably joined" as used herein means that the bond can be broken under certain conditions, such as a certain external force, so that the first film and the second film in the valve area are separated from each other. Preferably, the first film and the second film in the valve area can be bonded by ultrasonic welding, bonding, thermocompression bonding, and the like, and the bonding can be broken under the impact of a fluid under a certain pressure. The disposable valve structure may be regular or irregular in shape, such as, but not limited to, chevron, V-shaped, zigzag, wave, etc. Generally, the width of the disposable valve structure is much smaller than the diameters of the two adjacent functional chambers. After two adjacent functional chambers are communicated, the communication port is only the torn valve. When the liquid storage bag formed by the two functional cavities is extruded oppositely, the extruded liquid passes through the communication port at a high speed and generates strong impact force. This impact force can realize the effect of vortex oscillation for liquid mixing is more abundant.

In this embodiment, there may be a plurality of valve zones, wherein the plurality of irreversible disposable valve structures may be named as sample valve 1201, sample lysis valve 1202, lysis valve 1203, binding solution valve 1204, washing solution valve 1205, washing solution valve 1206, eluent valve 1207, effluent valve 1208, etc.

In this embodiment, a first pressing mechanism may be disposed above or below each liquid storage chamber, and when liquid flow is required, the first pressing mechanism is pushed to make the liquid in the corresponding functional chamber bear pressure. Each reservoir has a respective valve section, and the valve in each valve section (i.e. the irreversible disposable valve structure) tears open when subjected to a fluid pressure exceeding its rupture threshold, thereby allowing the two reservoirs interconnected by the valve to communicate with each other, so that fluid can flow between the two reservoirs.

In this embodiment, if the extraction of nucleic acid needs to be performed by using an auxiliary medium such as magnetic beads, the first squeezing mechanism may be a structural member having a magnetic bead capture function, such as a magnet having a flat surface, and the magnetic squeezing mechanism may be relatively movable at a first station, a second station, and a third station at different distances from the magnetic bead capture chamber; at the first station, the magnetic extrusion mechanism extrudes the magnetic bead capture chamber by the flat surface of the magnetic extrusion mechanism, so that the first film and the second film are tightly attached in the functional chamber, and the dead volume in the magnetic bead capture chamber is minimum; at the second station, the magnetic extrusion mechanism is far away from the magnetic bead capture chamber, and the magnetic force formed by the magnet embedded in the magnetic extruder to the magnetic bead capture chamber is very weak, so that the magnetic beads in the liquid flowing through the magnetic bead capture chamber cannot be captured; the third station is positioned between the first station and the second station, and at the third station, the magnetic squeezing mechanism is in close contact with one of the two films forming the magnetic bead capturing chamber but is separated from the other film, namely the magnetic bead capturing chamber forms a micro-thin liquid flow cylindrical structure. When the liquid with the magnetic beads passes through the micro-thin liquid flow cylindrical structure, all the magnetic beads are influenced by the magnet on the magnetic pressing mechanism and are possibly adsorbed in the magnetic bead capture chamber.

For example, the central chamber 1108 may have a movable magnet disposed at its corresponding location for magnetic bead capture. When the magnet is completely extended out, the magnet is attached to the central cavity area, liquid in the central cavity is discharged, the magnet returns for a small distance, the central cavity is changed into a tiny liquid flowing cylindrical structure, and magnetic beads in the liquid flowing through the central cavity can be grabbed. The magnet is fully retracted and the magnetic force is not felt by the central chamber, and the magnetic beads can flow through the central chamber along with the liquid. The position of the magnet away from the central chamber is divided into a first station, a second station and a third station. The first station can enable the magnet to be completely popped out, the magnet is directly attached to the bag and is completely pressed against the central cavity, the upper film and the lower film of the central cavity are attached together, and the function of the first station can discharge liquid in the central cavity out of the central cavity; the second station completely withdraws the magnet, the magnet is far away from the central chamber, and then magnetic beads captured in liquid in the central chamber can be released and can flow along with the liquid; the third station is in a position between fully ejected and fully retracted, which keeps the upper and lower membranes of the central chamber at a certain distance, and this position is mainly used for magnetic bead capture.

Further, a corresponding second pressing mechanism can be arranged above or below each valve area to serve as a physical valve. When the valves in each valve area are broken under the extrusion of liquid, the blocking function can be realized by the corresponding physical valves. In particular, a second pressing mechanism may be used to press against the corresponding valve area and form a seal, thereby blocking the flow of liquid.

In this embodiment, at least one first connection region may be defined in the laminated film 1000 along the film plane direction. A first attachment area is attached between two adjacent functional compartments, preferably having a width that is substantially smaller than the diameter of the two functional compartments. The first film and the second film are detachably combined in the first connection area, so that the first connection area can form a first microfluidic channel, and when a set extrusion force is applied to one functional chamber containing fluid to enable the fluid to pass through the first microfluidic channel and enter the other functional chamber, the fluid passes through the narrow first microfluidic channel at a high speed due to the action of the pressure and the geometric size limitation of the microfluidic channel. The pressure difference between the two functional chambers and the high velocity of the outgoing fluid create a cavitation-like effect such that bubbles in the fluid undergo growth and collapse.

In this embodiment, an irreversible disposable valve structure and a first connection region to form the first microfluidic channel 1102 may be provided between the functional chamber for forming the sample cell 1101 and the functional chamber for forming the lysis cell 1103. When a squeezing force is applied to the sample cell 1101, the liquid therein will escape through the first microfluidic channel 1102. Due to the narrow structural design of the first microfluidic channel 1102, the liquid flow rate in the channel rises rapidly. This results in a drop in the pressure of the liquid therein. When the local absolute pressure of the high-speed flowing liquid is reduced to be lower than the saturated vapor pressure of the current environment, the air dissolved in the water is released, and a plurality of tiny vacuoles are formed. When these bubbles flow into the cracking cell 1103 with the liquid, they burst in an implosion form due to the change of external factors such as the release of pressure. During the rupture process, the cavitation bubbles can generate instantaneous local high temperature and high pressure and form shock waves and micro jet flows, and the process can even cause some chemical reactions which cannot be realized at normal temperature and normal pressure. These popping vacuoles will facilitate the destruction of difficult-to-lyse structures (e.g., bacteria, fungi, cells containing cell wall structures, etc.) and optimize lysis.

The first microfluidic channel 1102 may be in various regular or irregular shapes, such as triangle, trapezoid, waist drum, wave, interdigital, etc., and the efficiency of forming the vacuole may be improved by changing the shape of the first microfluidic channel 1102, and the length, width, etc. of the first microfluidic channel 1102 may be adjusted to further enhance the flow rate of the liquid flowing through the channel, so as to achieve the desired lysis effect. For example, the width of the first microfluidic channel 1102 may be set to 0.1-10mm and the length may be set to 0.1-50 mm in this embodiment.

In addition, a fluid blocking mechanism may be disposed in the first microfluidic channel, and in the coplanar direction of the laminated film, the fluid blocking mechanism may be in various regular or irregular forms, such as a rectangle, a triangle, a diamond, a dot matrix, and the like, and may be connected to an inner wall of one side of the first microfluidic channel and leave a gap with an inner wall of the other side of the first microfluidic channel, or may also leave a gap with inner walls of both sides of the first microfluidic channel, so as to regulate and control the fluidics parameters of the fluid in the first microfluidic channel, and may also collide with the high-speed fluid passing through the first microfluidic channel at a high speed.

In this embodiment, a typical shape and configuration of first microfluidic channel 110201, as shown in FIG. 3a, forms high pressure zone 110202 and low pressure zone 110203 on either side of the channel, and cavitation bubbles 110204 are formed as fluid passes from high pressure zone 110202 through first microfluidic channel 110201 into low pressure zone 110203.

Illustratively, the first microfluidic channel may also employ any one of the first microfluidic channel 11020101 shown in fig. 3b, the first microfluidic channel 11020102 shown in fig. 3c, the first microfluidic channel 11020103 shown in fig. 3d, the first microfluidic channel 11020104 shown in fig. 3e, the first microfluidic channel 11020105 shown in fig. 3f, the first microfluidic channel 11020106 shown in fig. 3g, the first microfluidic channel 11020107 shown in fig. 3h, the first microfluidic channel 11020108 shown in fig. 3i, or the first microfluidic channel 11020109 shown in fig. 3 j. The fluid blocking mechanism may be the rectangular fluid blocking mechanism 11020501 of fig. 3d, the interdigitated fluid blocking mechanism 11020502 of fig. 3f, the diamond shaped fluid blocking mechanism 11020503 of fig. 3g, the dot matrix fluid blocking mechanism 11020504 of fig. 3j, and the like.

In this embodiment, a collision structure may be further provided in front of the outlet of the first microfluidic channel, and the collision structure may be various regular or irregular shapes, such as a triangle, a rectangle, an arc, a fold, a circle, etc., in the coplanar direction of the laminated film, and is configured to collide strongly with the high-speed fluid output from the first microfluidic channel. The collision structure should be spaced from the outlet of the first microfluidic channel to allow fluid to pass smoothly from one functional chamber to another.

In this embodiment, an exemplary collision structure 110207 can be seen in fig. 4a, when the liquid flows out of the first microfluidic channel 1102, it hits the inner wall of the lysis cell 1103 or hits the collision structure 110207 at a very high velocity. These violent collisions further contribute to destructive cracking of the refractory structure. For example, the impact structure may also adopt any one of the impact structure 11020701 shown in fig. 4b, the impact structure 11020702 shown in fig. 4c, the impact structure 11020703 shown in fig. 4d, the impact structure 11020704 shown in fig. 4e, the impact structure 11020705 shown in fig. 4f, or the impact structure 11020706 shown in fig. 4 g.

In this embodiment, a certain amount of glass microspheres 110206, etc. may also be optionally added to the lysis solution. When glass microspheres flow with the liquid, the rapid repetitive collisions of sample cells with glass microspheres when passing through either of first microfluidic channel 11020101-first microfluidic channel 11020108 more efficiently contribute to efficient lysis of difficult-to-lyse structures.

Referring to fig. 1 and 5, in the present embodiment, a liquid outlet 1307 is further formed in the laminated film 1000, and the liquid outlet 1307 is connected to a liquid outlet interface 3000. The functional chamber forming the bath 1107 may be connected to the exit port 1307 by a second connection zone 1111. The second attachment zone is also disposed within the laminate film, in which the first film is detachably joined to the second film, and when the first film is separated from the second film in the second attachment zone, second microfluidic channels 13072 are formed in the second attachment zone through which fluid can pass. The second microfluidic channel 13072 is preferably curved, for example S-shaped. Specifically, when no liquid passes through, the first film and the second film are tightly attached in the second connecting area, and no physical space exists. When the corresponding chamber is squeezed to generate an internal pressure in the liquid therein, the pressure exerted by the fluid entering the second connecting region causes the first film to separate from the second film, forming a second microfluidic channel 13072 having a physical space such that the liquid can be transferred within second microfluidic channel 13072.

Preferably, a valve area may be provided between the functional chamber forming the eluent reservoir 1107 and the effluent port 1307, wherein the irreversible disposable valve structure may be named effluent valve 1208. And, a third connection region may be further provided between the functional chamber for forming the eluent reservoir 1107 and the liquid outlet 1307, the third connection region also being distributed in the laminated film, the first film and the second film being separably combined in the third connection region, and when the first film and the second film in the third connection region are separated, a third microfluidic channel 13071 through which a fluid can pass is formed in the third connection region, and the third microfluidic channel may be of a variable diameter structure, particularly, a diameter thereof is reduced in a liquid flow direction.

The functional chamber for forming the eluent reservoir 1107 may be connected to the liquid outlet 1307 sequentially through the liquid outlet valve 1208, the third microfluidic channel 13071 and the second microfluidic channel 13072.

In addition, referring to fig. 1-2 again, a plurality of positioning holes, such as a first positioning hole 1401, a second positioning hole 1402, etc., may be formed on the laminated film, especially on the edge portion thereof, to guide the positioning of the microfluidic pouch, and to occupy less space on the microfluidic pouch.

The sample cell 1101, the release sample cell 1101, the extrusion lysis cell 1103 and the release lysis cell 1103 are sequentially extruded, so that the liquid flows back and forth between the sample cell and the lysis cell, and the sample liquid and the lysis solution are fully mixed.

And S5, closing the physical valve at the sample cracking valve 1202 and cutting off the liquid flow between the sample cell and the cracking cell. Physical valves at sample valve 1201, lysis valve 1203, binding fluid valve 1204 are opened. And (3) destroying the sample valve 1201, the lysis valve 1203 and the binding solution valve 1204 to mix the three liquids of the sample, the lysis solution and the binding solution, so that the magnetic beads capture the nucleic acid derived from the sample.

S6, the magnet under the central chamber 1108 is raised to the third station, where it is held against the lower surface of the microfluidic pouch but at a distance from the upper surface of the microfluidic pouch. The liquid in the sample pool, the cracking pool and the combination liquid pool flows through the central cavity in sequence, and the capture of the magnetic beads is realized in the central cavity.

S7, the magnet is lifted up to the first position below the central chamber 1108, and the waste liquid remaining in the central chamber is discharged.

S8, after the magnetic bead capture is completed, discharging the waste liquid into the sample cell 1101 and the lysis cell 1103, closing the corresponding physical valves below the sample valve 1201 and the lysis valve 1203, lowering the magnet below the central chamber 1108 to the second station, and releasing the magnetic bead.

The aforementioned extraction device may also be considered a fluid sample processing device, which may have a variety of configurations. In the present embodiment, as shown in fig. 6, a fluid sample processing device may include a bladder gland 4001, a nucleic acid extraction bladder 4002, an actuator 4003, a physical valve 4004, a seal ring 4005, a magnet actuator 4006, a bladder support block 4007, an air inlet 4008, and the like. The nucleic acid extraction pouch 4002 employs the microfluidic pouch described above, the actuator 4003 and the magnet actuator 4006 serve as the first pressing mechanism, and the physical valve 4004 serves as the second pressing mechanism. The actuator 4003, the magnet actuator 4006, the physical valve 4004, and the like may be driven by pneumatic, electric, or the like. In the embodiment, a gas driving mode is mainly adopted, and the gas pressure ranges from 0.1 MPa to 0.6 MPa. Illustratively, the magnet actuator 4006 may be driven by a magnet movement cylinder 4009.

In this embodiment, at least one set of actuators 4003 is disposed in correspondence to each functional chamber of the microfluidic pouch to promote the flow of liquid in the corresponding chamber;

a set of physical valves 4004 is provided corresponding to each valve zone of the microfluidic pouch. When the valve is broken, the physical valve is used to block liquid.

A seal 4005 may be placed at the rear end of the actuator 4003 and the valve 4004 and form a seal with a groove on the bladder support block 4007. When gas enters the groove of the bladder support block 4007 through the gas inlet 4008, the actuator or valve is pushed to move forward. When the actuator 4003 moves forwards and meets the bag 4002, the corresponding chamber is pushed to move forwards, but due to the blocking of the bag gland 4001, the actuator 4003 finally clings to the bag gland 4001, liquid in the corresponding chamber in the bag 4002 is discharged, and primary liquid extrusion is realized. When the air pressure of the air inlet is released, the actuator does not act on the extrusion force, and the corresponding chamber on the bag is not extruded any more. When valve 4004 moves forward, it separates the flow of liquid between the two chambers. A rebound spring, a limit screw and other devices can be selectively added behind the actuator and the valve to limit the extending distance of the actuator and have the functions of active rebound and the like.

In the embodiment, the air intake amount of the air inlet can be controlled by using modes such as PWM (pulse width modulation) and the like, and the air intake time in a single control period is controlled by adjusting the PWM high-level time, so that the aim of controlling the single air intake amount is fulfilled. Thus, slow air supply to the actuator 4003 and the magnet movement cylinder 4009 can be realized. In this way, a slow extension and retraction of the actuator or cylinder can be achieved. Meanwhile, the extending distance of the actuator and the cylinder can be controlled by controlling the air inflow. The following are exemplary: the magnet movement cylinder 4009 has a first intake port and a second intake port. And if positive pressure is always supplied to the first air inlet, the air cylinder extends out, and if positive pressure is always supplied to the second air inlet, the air cylinder retracts. When a fixed number of PWM waves are supplied to the first intake port, the cylinder may not fully extend. By adjusting the number of PWM waves, the operating position of the magnet actuator 4006 is switched.
