Whole blood consists of red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets and other blood cells and plasma, wherein the blood cells account for 40% -45% of the whole blood, and the plasma accounts for 55% -60%. The plasma components are complex and mainly comprise proteins, lipids, inorganic salts, saccharides and the like, and many components are directly related to various vital activities of human bodies, so that the detection and analysis of the plasma components are of great significance to basic biomedical research and clinical detection. Since blood cells and their contents often interfere with plasma component analysis, blood cells need to be removed in advance in the relevant assays.
Centrifugation and membrane filtration are the most commonly used plasma separation methods at present. In the conventional centrifugation method, a whole blood sample is collected in a blood collection tube equipped with a substance having an intermediate specific gravity between that of serum and the like and that of blood cell components, and the substance is separated by a centrifugation operation so as to be located at an intermediate position between the serum and the like and the blood cell components. However, the method is applied to the separation of milliliter-level blood samples, and cannot meet the requirements of a miniature total analysis system.
The biggest disadvantage of membrane filtration is that membrane pores are easily blocked by blood cells, resulting in reduced separation efficiency, sample loss, contamination, etc. The efficiency of plasma separation is greatly affected by the filter media.
Huangdong, zhang He, xu Tao, etc. microfluidic chips based on the principle of inertial microfluidic are used for plasma separation [ J ].

However, the method is only suitable for diluting blood samples, and can not directly separate the blood plasma of trace whole blood, thereby increasing the difficulty for quantitative analysis of subsequent blood plasma detection. In addition, this method does not completely separate erythrocytes, and the plasma contains residual erythrocytes.
The centrifugal microfluidic chip technology has the characteristics of sample micro-quantization, detection item integration and the like, can meet the requirements of a miniature full-analysis system, and is widely applied to the field of blood detection at present. However, the centrifugal microfluidic chip which can be directly used for separating trace whole blood and plasma and has no medium pollution and adsorption is still blank.
