Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to a chip tube for analyzing a gene with an identification label.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, chip tubes for gene (DNA) analysis have been colored to identify the internal chip, numbers or symbols have been written directly, or those marked on a sticker have been attached. .

[0003] However, according to these conventional means, coloring, numerals, symbols, and the like are erased by alcohol or the like, making them indecipherable or the stickers affixed being peeled off. In other words, there are disadvantages in that the analysis is performed again with a new chip, and that the use of information technology (IT) is delayed.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 Therefore, the present invention was devised in order to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks, and by directly printing on the surface of a gene analysis chip tube, an identification label portion capable of contributing to the development of bioinformatics technology. It is to develop a chip tube for analysis of associated genes.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 Therefore, the present invention has a feature that an identification mark such as a pattern, a color, a number, a character, a symbol, or the like is directly printed on the surface of a chip tube for gene analysis, and the identification mark is overcoated. It consists of a chip tube for gene analysis.

[0006]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 One embodiment of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings. A pattern and a color identification mark (2a) that can be detected by a sensor are directly printed on the surface of a chip tube for gene analysis (1). On (2a), identification marks (2b) such as numbers, characters, and symbols are further directly printed, and the identification marks (2a) (2b) are overcoated with a transparent resin ink (3). It consists of a chip tube for analysis of a gene with an identification marker, which is a characteristic feature.

The chip tube for gene analysis (1) is a polypropylene molded product having a length of 19 mm, a width of 6 mm, an upper part of 5 mm, and a depth of 3 mm from the middle to the lower part. There is an empty space (1a) for storing a sample, an extension (1b) is provided at the upper edge of the empty space (1a), and a lid adapted to the size of the empty room (1a) is provided in the extension (1b). (1c) is provided so as to protrude, and the extension (1b) is bent to close the empty room (1a) with the lid (1c).

[0008] An identification mark (2a) consisting of a picture and a color is first printed on the surface of the chip tube (1) for analysis of the gene, at a position avoiding the edge to which the vacant space corresponds. However, these colors need to be colors that can be sensed by the sensors provided in the analyzer. May be colored.

[0009] Further, identification marks (2b) such as numbers, characters, symbols, etc. are directly printed on the colored identification marks (2a) in the upper and lower two tiers. For example, three or four digits [001 to 999, 0001 to 9999] are entered, and the lower part is for printing uppercase letters, lowercase letters, katakana characters, hiragana characters, pictures, etc. Depending on the type of machine, "A01-96" is entered.

[0010] The identification marks (2a) and (2b) are coated with a transparent resin ink (3), and are overcoated.

[0011]

[Effect of the invention]

 According to the present invention, identification marks (2a) and (2b) such as pictures, colors, numbers, characters, and symbols are directly printed on the surface of the chip tube for gene analysis (1), whereby alcohol, reagents and the like can be obtained. The marker does not disappear due to the components, does not peel off as if a sticker was attached, does not lose, and the identification mark (2a (2b) is overcoated with a transparent resin ink (3). By doing so, it is possible to strictly recognize the internal sample and the identification mark, obtain a highly reliable analysis, and have an extremely beneficial effect, such as speeding up the construction of the database.
