A PCR thermal cycling apparatus and a control method according to some embodiments of the present application are described below with reference to fig. 1 to 4.
Example 1
The first embodiment provides a PCR thermal cycle device, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, including a first constant temperature tank 1 and a moving mechanism 5, where the first constant temperature tank 1 has a constant first control temperature, a support 8 is provided at a moving end of the moving mechanism 5, a capillary tube 6 containing a sample and a temperature measuring module 7 are installed on the support 8 at intervals, and the moving mechanism 5 can drive the capillary tube 6 and the temperature measuring module 7 to move synchronously, so that the capillary tube 6 and the temperature measuring module 7 can be put into the first constant temperature tank 1 together or taken out of the first constant temperature tank 1 together.
The first thermostatic bath 1 is capable of controlling the temperature of a sample contained in the capillary tube 6 placed inside thereof, such as heating or cooling; in this embodiment, the first thermostatic bath 1 serves as a high temperature bath of a PCR thermal cycle device to heat a sample so that the temperature of the sample is heated to within a first temperature threshold range to complete a DNA denaturation reaction.
The temperature measurement module 7 is able to monitor the temperature of the sample as it is heated by the first thermostat 1 to ensure that the temperature of the sample within the capillary tube 6 is within a first temperature threshold after the capillary tube 6 has been moved out of the first thermostat 1. Because the capillary tube 6 is very small, the temperature measuring module 7 can not be placed in the capillary tube 6 to directly monitor the temperature of the sample, so that the temperature measured by the temperature measuring module 7 and the temperature of the sample in the capillary tube 6 have a temperature difference, in order to accurately judge the time when the capillary tube 6 moves out of the first constant temperature tank 1 according to the temperature measured by the temperature measuring module 7, the PCR thermal cycle device is further provided with a control module, and the control module is configured to: the control module is provided with a first set temperature, when the temperature measured by the temperature measuring module 7 in the first constant temperature tank 1 reaches the first set temperature, the control module immediately controls the moving mechanism 5 to take the capillary tube 6 out of the first constant temperature tank 1, so that the temperature of a sample in the capillary tube 6 is indirectly monitored through the temperature measuring module 7, the temperature of the sample in the capillary tube 6 can be ensured to be at a first temperature threshold value after being taken out of the first constant temperature tank 1, and the rapid and smooth DNA denaturation of the sample is ensured.
In this embodiment, preferably, two temperature measuring modules 7 are arranged side by side on two sides of the capillary tube, and when the temperature of any one temperature measuring module 7 reaches the first set temperature, the control module immediately controls the moving mechanism 5 to take out the capillary tube 6 from the first constant temperature tank 1, so that the risk brought by temperature uniformity is further reduced.
In this embodiment, the thermometry module 7 may be of tubular construction, inserting the temperature sensor into the water or oil inside the tube and sealing it. Preferably, the temperature measuring module 7 is a temperature sensor with a metal shell or a ceramic shell, so that the temperature measuring module 7 is not easy to crack and damage in the process of moving along with the capillary tube 6, thereby ensuring that the whole detection process is successfully completed.
However, since the material of the temperature measuring module 7 is different from that of the capillary tube 6, the transient thermal response characteristics of the two in the constant temperature tank are different, and the temperature measured by the temperature measuring module 7 and the temperature of the sample in the capillary tube 6 at the same environmental temperature are different, a stable temperature corresponding relationship needs to be established between the two. In this embodiment, the first temperature threshold is a target temperature at which the sample completes DNA denaturation, such as 95 ℃, preferably the first control temperature of the first incubator 1 ranges from 100 ℃ to 130 ℃, by setting the first control temperature well above the target temperature at which the sample completes DNA denaturation, the sample can be rapidly heated to a desired temperature and DAN denaturation completed within the first incubator 1. Preferably, the first control temperature is 120 ℃.
In this embodiment, because there are individual differences between the temperature measurement modules 7 of different materials or structures, and different transient thermal response deviations exist between the temperature measurement modules and the capillary tube 6, the value range of the first set temperature of the temperature measurement module 7 is 90-105 ℃ so as to meet the DNA denaturation temperature requirement of the sample 95 ℃; meanwhile, in order to improve the reliability of system control and reduce the control difficulty, the first temperature threshold is further set to be (94+/-2) DEG C, so that the temperature measuring modules 7 with different materials or structures can establish stable temperature corresponding relations with the capillary tube 6. Preferably, when the temperature measuring module 7 is an NTC steel tube, the first set temperature is 102 ℃; namely, when the temperature measured by the NTC steel tube reaches 102 ℃, the control module immediately controls the moving mechanism 5 to move the capillary tube 6 out of the first constant temperature tank 1, and at the moment, the temperature of the sample can be ensured to be always at (94+/-2) DEG C, so that the temperature requirement of finishing DAN denaturation in a plurality of high-speed cycles is met.
In this embodiment, preferably, the PCR thermal cycling device further includes a second thermostatic bath 2 serving as a low-temperature bath and a third thermostatic bath 3 serving as an optical bath, and the second thermostatic bath 2 is set to have a constant second control temperature, and the third thermostatic bath 3 is set to have a constant third control temperature; the control module can control the moving mechanism 5 to sequentially transfer the capillary tube 6 taken out from the first constant temperature tank 1 to the second constant temperature tank 2 and the third constant temperature tank 3, so that the sample completes cooling annealing in the second constant temperature tank 2, and completes fluorescent signal acquisition in the third constant temperature tank 3 (completed by external fluorescent signal acquisition equipment).
Preferably, the sample in the capillary 6 needs to be cooled in the second thermostatic bath 2 so that the temperature of the capillary 6 is within a second temperature threshold before reaching the third thermostatic bath 3, to meet the temperature requirement for completing DAN renaturation in a plurality of high speed cycles, preferably the second temperature threshold is (57.5±2) °c.
Since the temperature of the sample in the capillary tube 6 is still continuously reduced during the process of taking the capillary tube 6 out of the second thermostatic bath 2 and transferring it to the third thermostatic bath 3, in order to ensure that the temperature of the sample can be quickly reduced to within the second temperature threshold range before the capillary tube 6 enters the third thermostatic bath 3, the temperature of the second thermostatic bath 2, namely the second control temperature, is far lower than the second temperature threshold; preferably, the second control temperature range of the second thermostatic bath 2 is 10-25 ℃; further, the second control temperature was 15 ℃.
Meanwhile, in the process of cooling the capillary tube 6 in the second constant temperature tank 2, the temperature of the sample in the capillary tube 6 is indirectly monitored through the temperature measuring module 7, so that the time for the capillary tube 6 to move out of the second constant temperature tank 2 is determined according to the temperature measured by the temperature measuring module 7; preferably, the control module is configured to: the control module is provided with a second set temperature, and the value range of the second set temperature is preferably 50-70 ℃; when the temperature measured by the temperature measuring module 7 in the second constant temperature tank 2 reaches the second set temperature, the control module immediately controls the moving mechanism 5 to take the capillary tube 6 out of the second constant temperature tank 2, so that the temperature of the internal sample is ensured to be within the second temperature threshold range before the capillary tube 6 is transferred into the third constant temperature tank 3. Preferably, the second set temperature is 65 ℃.
It should be noted that, the specific values of the first set temperature and the second set temperature may be set according to the actual situation, for example, when the temperatures of the first thermostat 1 and the second thermostat 2 are changed, or the materials and the structures of the temperature measuring module are changed, or the first temperature threshold and the second temperature threshold to be reached by the sample are changed, the values of the first set temperature and the second set temperature may be adjusted accordingly.
Specifically, specific values of the first set temperature and the second set temperature are obtained by performing calibration compensation and temperature profile calibration on the temperature of the thermostat. For example, a temperature measuring module and a capillary tube filled with a predetermined amount of water are placed at the moving end of the moving mechanism to simulate the state of the sample filled in the capillary tube by the water, and a thermocouple is inserted in the capillary tube to collect the temperature of the sample in the capillary tube, and a thermocouple probe is connected to a temperature collector; the capillary tube and the temperature measuring module are driven to circularly move between the first constant temperature tank and the second constant temperature tank through the moving mechanism, the first extraction temperature and the second extraction temperature are set, namely, the capillary tube is moved out of the high temperature tank when the temperature of the temperature measuring module reaches the first extraction temperature, the capillary tube is moved out of the low temperature tank when the temperature of the temperature measuring module reaches the second extraction temperature, a temperature curve of a sample in the capillary tube measured by a thermocouple shown in fig. 3 is given by the temperature collector, meanwhile, a temperature curve shown in fig. 4 can be obtained according to the temperature measured by the temperature measuring module, and the two curves are regular curves with peaks and troughs; when the first extraction temperature is 102 ℃ of the first set temperature, and the second extraction temperature is 65 ℃ of the second set temperature, the peak of the temperature curve of the sample in the capillary tube can be stabilized at (94+/-2) DEG C, namely a first temperature threshold value, and the trough can be stabilized at (57.5+/-2) DEG C, namely a second temperature threshold value, so that the first set temperature and the second set temperature are determined.
In this embodiment, preferably, since the temperature measuring module 7 is inserted into the height Wen Caoshi for the first time at the beginning of a cycle, and no stable correspondence is established with the sample tube, the temperature measuring module has a different first extraction temperature setting during a plurality of cycles, the first extraction temperature of the temperature measuring module 7 being higher during the first cycle than during the subsequent cycle. For example, in 40 cycles, the temperature of the 1 st cycle process temperature measurement module is 1-4 ℃ higher than the temperature of the next 39 cycles, preferably 2 ℃, as shown in fig. 4, the first temperature of the first cycle is 104 ℃, and the first temperature of the 2 st to 39 th cycles is 102 ℃, so as to meet the first temperature threshold requirement.
In this embodiment, it is preferable that the third control temperature of the third thermostatic bath 3 is 75 deg.c to perform the medium-temperature extension of the sample placed in the capillary tube 6 inside thereof through the third thermostatic bath 3, ensuring that the sample successfully completes the fluorescent signal collection. Preferably, the control module is communicatively connected to the device for fluorescence signal acquisition, and the control module is further configured to: after the fluorescent signal collection device completes the fluorescent signal collection of the sample, the control module controls the moving mechanism 5 to move the capillary 6 out of the third constant temperature groove 3.
