Detailed Description
The technical solution provided by the present invention is explained in more detail with reference to fig. 1 to 6.
Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the present invention provides a microfluidic chip assembly, including a reagent cartridge 1, a reagent cartridge holder 2, and a chip body 3. Referring to fig. 2, the reagent cartridge 1 comprises a cartridge body 11, a first sealing member 12 and a second sealing member 13. The bin body 11 is provided with a storage cavity 10, one end of the bin body 11 is provided with a first sealing member 12, and the other end of the bin body 11 is provided with more than two layers of second sealing members 13. Referring to fig. 4, the reagent cartridge holder 2 has a first lancet 21. Referring to fig. 1, 5 and 6, the chip body 3 has a second lancet 31; chip body 3 can dismantle with reagent storehouse support 2 and be connected, and chip body 3 and reagent storehouse support 2 form and place the region to hold reagent storehouse 1. Wherein the first lancet 21 corresponds to the first seal 12 and the second lancet 31 corresponds to the second seal 13.
Referring to fig. 1, a reagent cartridge holder 2 is matched with a chip body 3 to support and fix a reagent cartridge 1 and to provide constraint for the movement of the reagent cartridge 1 along the vertical direction shown in fig. 1, so that the reagent cartridge 1 cannot fall off, and the reagent cartridge 1 can be effectively fixed in an unused state and a used state of a microfluidic chip assembly. The unused state refers to a state of the first seal member 12 and the second seal member 13 before being pierced; the use state refers to a state in which the microfluidic chip assembly is used for testing, that is, the first sealing member 12 and the second sealing member 13 are punctured to release the reagent in the storage chamber 10 of the reagent cartridge 1.
The first piercing needle 21 corresponds to the first sealing member 12, which means that after the components of the microfluidic chip assembly are mounted in place, the first piercing needle 21 is located near the first sealing member 12, and taking the direction shown in fig. 1 as an example, the first piercing needle 21 is located above the first sealing member 12; when it is required for subsequent use, the first lancet 21 is caused to pierce the first seal 12 by changing the distance between the first lancet 21 and the first seal 12.
The second piercing needle 31 corresponds to the second sealing member 13, which means that after the components of the microfluidic chip assembly are mounted in place, the second piercing needle 31 is located near the second sealing member 13, and taking the orientation shown in fig. 1 as an example, the second piercing needle 31 is located below the second sealing member 13. When it is needed for subsequent use, the second puncture needle 31 punctures the second sealing member 13 by changing the distance between the second puncture needle 31 and the second sealing member 13.
The storage chamber 10 of the reagent cartridge 1 is used for storing a liquid reagent or a lyophilized reagent. The data of the reagent chamber 1 is determined according to the number of the second puncture needles 31 of the chip body 3, and can be flexibly increased or decreased according to the flow requirements of biochemical reactions. The reagent chambers 1 are arranged in rows, and each reagent chamber 1 is correspondingly provided with a first puncture needle 21 and a second puncture needle 31. All the reagent chambers 1 are fixed together to form a whole reagent chamber.
The first sealing member 12 and the second sealing members 13 of the reagent cabin 1 realize the whole-course sealing during the process of releasing the reagent in the storage chamber 10. The second sealing members 13 are mounted by heat-pressure sealing, and the first sealing member 12 is heat-pressure sealed after the reagent is loaded.
Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, along the axial direction of the reagent cartridge 1, i.e. the length direction of the reagent cartridge 1, the storage chamber 10 is divided into a storage section 101, a narrow section 102 and a sealing section 103. The narrow section 102 is located between the storage section 101 and the sealing section 103. The narrow section 102 has an inner diameter dimension that is less than the inner diameter dimension of each of the storage section 101 and the sealing section 103.
The inner diameter of the storage section 101 is configured to be tapered, with the inner diameter of the storage section 101 on the side toward the narrowed section 102 being smaller in size and the inner diameter of the storage section 101 distal from the narrowed section 102 being larger in size to facilitate subsequent release of the reagent.
The inner diameter of the throat section 102 is relatively small in size, and when desired, the inner diameter of the throat section 102 may be set relatively small to allow a small gap between the throat section 102 and the outer wall of the second lancet 31 that has punctured the second seal 13.
Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the second sealing members 13 are located at the sealing section 103, and the second sealing members 13 are distributed along the axial direction of the reagent cartridge 1. The second sealing members 13 are, for example, of a sheet-like structure, and each second sealing member 13 is individually installed to collectively perform a multiple sealing function.
With continued reference to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the seal segment 103 includes a transition segment 103a and a mounting segment 103b. The transition section 103a has an inner diameter dimension that is smaller than the inner diameter dimension of the mounting section 103b. The transition section 103a is located between the throat section 102 and the mounting section 103b. The transition section 103a is connected to the throat section 102. The transition section 103a and the mounting section 103b each have an inner diameter dimension that is greater than the inner diameter dimension of the throat section 102.
With continued reference to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the microfluidic chip assembly further comprises a sealing ring 4, the sealing ring 4 being disposed at the mounting section 103b of the sealing section 103, the sealing ring 4 being configured to seal against an outer wall of the second lancet 31 that has punctured the second sealing member 13. The seal ring 4 is made of rubber, for example.
The microfluidic chip assembly with the sealing ring 4 is particularly suitable for liquid reagents. During transportation or in the case that neither the first sealing member 12 nor the second sealing member 13 at the end of the reagent cartridge 1 is punctured, the liquid reagent can be well sealed by the first sealing member 12 at the top and the multiple layers of second sealing members 13 at the bottom of the reagent cartridge 1.
In the process of using the microfluidic chip assembly, a downward force, i.e. a force towards the direction of the second puncture needle 31, is applied to the reagent chamber bracket 2, the second puncture needle 31 of the chip body 3 is adopted to puncture the second sealing element 13 at the bottom of the reagent chamber 1, and at the moment, the outer wall of the second puncture needle 31 is tightly wrapped by the sealing ring 4 to prevent leakage; then, continuing to apply a downward force to the reagent cartridge support 2, the first piercing needle 21 of the reagent cartridge support 2 pierces the first seal 12 at the top of the reagent cartridge 1, so that the storage chamber 10 of the reagent cartridge 1 is vented to the outside atmosphere to effect release of the reagent. At this time, the liquid in the storage chamber 10 does not leak due to the sealing connection between the seal ring 4 and the second lancet 31 of the chip body 3.
Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, at least one of the second seals 13 is located upstream of the seal ring 4, and the remaining second seals 13 are located downstream of the seal ring 4. At least one of the plurality of second seals 13 is located upstream of the seal ring 4, and the remaining second seals 13 are located downstream of the seal ring 4.
After the sealing ring 4 is arranged, due to the sealing effect of the second sealing piece 13 positioned at the upstream of the sealing ring 4, the reagent bin 1 is prevented from being soaked in the reagent in the storage process, so that the service life of the sealing ring 4 is shortened, and the reagent is prevented from reacting with the sealing ring 4 to cause reagent deterioration and invalidation.
Therefore, the technical scheme improves the sealing performance of the microfluidic chip assembly in the unused state and improves the sealing performance of the microfluidic chip assembly in the used state.
Referring to fig. 3a and 3b, in further embodiments, the microfluidic chip assembly further comprises a separator 5, the separator 5 being disposed inside the storage section 101 to divide the storage section 101 into a plurality of regions, each region being configured to place a biological material. The partition 5 is provided with through holes 50 penetrating to communicate the respective regions.
The microfluidic chip assembly may not be provided with a sealing ring 4 if it is suitable for freeze-drying reagents. At this time, the storage section 101 is divided into a plurality of sections by using the partition 5, and each section may be placed with a different lyophilized reagent as shown in fig. 3a and 3b. At the moment, the second sealing element 13 at the bottom of the reagent bin 1 also plays a role in double-layer sealing, so that the sealing performance of the microfluidic chip assembly is improved, and the rapid nucleic acid field detection is favorably realized.
When the reagent lyophilized spheres are loaded, the section downstream of the partition 5 contains the lyophilized spheres and the section upstream of the partition 5 contains a desiccant to extend the shelf life of the lyophilized spheres.
Referring to fig. 3a and 3b, in some embodiments, the inner wall of the storage section 101 is provided with a mounting portion 104 that is convex or concave toward the inside of the storage section 101, and the partition 5 is mounted to the mounting portion 104. The mounting portion 104 may be annular or may be convex or concave only in a partial region of the inner wall circumference of the storage section 101. A mounting portion 104 is provided to facilitate mounting of the spacer 5.

The following describes the manufacturing and using process of the microfluidic chip assembly, taking the microfluidic chip assembly with the sealing ring 4 as an example, that is, the microfluidic chip assembly is suitable for liquid reagents.
Referring to fig. 2, first, a reagent cartridge 1 is prepared. The second sealing element 13 positioned at the most downstream is fixed in a hot pressing mode, and the bottom of the reagent cabin 1 is preliminarily sealed. Next, the seal ring 4 is installed; then, the second seal member 13 located upstream of the seal ring 4 is fixed by a hot press. Taking the second sealing member 13 as two layers as an example, a structure in which the sealing ring 4 is located in the middle and two second sealing members 13 are located on two sides is finally formed, that is, a structure of the second sealing member 13-the sealing ring 4-the second sealing member 13.
Secondly, according to different requirements of biochemical reaction, corresponding reagents are selected. The liquid reagent may be injected directly into the chamber. The chamber reserved for the sample can also be provided with a filtering device in advance according to the requirement, so as to help purify the sample to be detected. After the reagent is filled, the first sealing element 12 is fixed in a hot-press sealing mode to realize complete sealing of the reagent bin 1, so that the storage and transportation of the microfluidic chip assembly are facilitated. It should be additionally noted that, in the case of a solid reagent, the immobilized reagent is placed downstream of the storage section 101, and then the desiccant is filled in the upstream section of the partition 5, so as to keep the chamber dry for a long time and prolong the storage time of the solid reagent.
When needing to examine, at first, operating personnel installs reagent storehouse support 2, is in the same place the plate body 22 of reagent storehouse support 2 and chip body 3 lock joint to form the space that can hold reagent storehouse 1.
Then, according to the requirement of detection, selecting a corresponding reagent chamber 1, after a sample is extracted and injected into the sample cavity, placing the reagent chamber 1 between the plate body 22 and the chip body 3 in the correct orientation shown in fig. 1, and then fastening the top cover 23 of the reagent chamber support 2.

Then, the preliminarily assembled chip is put into a detection instrument, and the detection instrument is started. The detection instrument outputs a certain pressure, and the top cover 23 is pressed down to press the propeller 233 away from the cover 231 of the top cover 23. Along with the increase of the downward pressure, the pusher 233 will press the reagent chamber 1 to increase the contact force with the second puncture needle 31, so as to puncture the double-layer film of the lower sealing area of the reagent chamber 1 until the second puncture needle 31 and the sealing ring 4 realize interference fit to ensure that no leakage occurs.
After the interference fit between the reagent chamber 1 and the second puncture needle 31 of the chip body 3 is completed, the stroke of the pressure output surface of the instrument is increased again, the interior of the propeller 233 is squeezed, the first puncture needle 21 is pressed away from the propeller 233, and the first sealing element 12 of the reagent chamber 1 is punctured, so that the communication with the atmosphere is realized. The reagent can be normally released after being communicated, and can be taken by a control instrument according to the reaction requirement.
