ENRICHMENT OF SAMPLES INSIDE THE MICROCHANNELS BY USING
MAGNETIC PARTICLES
Related Technical Field
This invention relates to purification method for selecting and isolating target substances from biological and/or chemical sample such as solutions containing DNA/RNA spirals, nanoscale biological and chemical structures such as exosomes, drug molecules, proteins, enzymes, cells and microbiological organisms, wherein it is particularly microfluidic based biological and/or chemical sample purification method by customized magnetic particles.
State of the art
Purification/enrichment methods by using magnetic particles are generally used to isolate a target material such as nucleic acid and protein from a biological sample. In those methods, biochemical substances in suspended form are rapidly bound to magnetic particles having a large surface area and magnetic area is applied to collect the magnetic particles to which the target material is bound. For these methods in question, various equipment and methods have been developed.
Recently, a technique which allows nucleic acids to be separated from the remaining constituents of cells more efficiently has been developed. This technique comprises the use of paramagnetic particles and US application with publication number US5973138 discloses the details of said technique. The paramagnetic particles are added in an acidic solution together with biological samples in said developed method. Particularly when cell samples are dissolved to release nucleic acids, the nucleic acids are bound to the paramagnetic particles in a manner to be reversible. Then the magnetic particles can be separated from the remaining of the solution by known techniques such as centrifuge, filtering or magnetic force. Subsequently, the magnetic particle to which the nucleic acids are bound can be removed from the solution and can be added in a suitable buffer solution causing the nucleic acids to be separated from the magnetic particles. Then the magnetic particles can be separated from nucleic acids by any of the prior art methods. The magnetic purification is performed generally in two ways when it is for biological samples. The first one them is that the samples to be purified exhibit magnetic moment per se and that the magnetic purification is carried out without any modification. However, these samples having magnetic characteristic are only blood cells and magnetotactic cells. In the purification process intended for all biological samples other than those, magnetically labeled tail is attached to one or more non-magnetic components in a solution. By means of these solutions customized according to type of the sample desired to be purified, magnetic sensitivity to be between the sample and the environment is ensured. This method is generally used to purify biological samples in the state of the art, and inside of a channel having one two inlets and one outlet, magnetic particles are passed through one side of inlet section, and tail attached samples and particles having no magnetic sensitivity which are desired to be purified are passed through the other inlet section. Tail attached samples and magnetic particles which come across at the joint of channel encounter and interact here, and while the magnetic particles and tail attached samples held thereon are attracted by a magnet retained outside the channel, those not having magnetic sensitivity continue moving at flow direction on the side of the channel distant from the magnet since the flow from the contaminants are laminar. It is ensured at the end of the flow that the particles and contaminants approaching to the channel wall where the magnet is positioned are removed separately. Thus, it is ensured that the sample to be purified and the undesired particles are separated from each other.
As purification/enrichment methods by using magnetic particles can be used for selecting and isolating target substances from biological and/or chemical sample such as solutions containing DNA/RNA spirals, nanoscale biological and chemical structures such as exosomes, drug molecules, proteins, enzymes, cells and microbiological organisms, they can also be used in purification/enrichment of chemical and mineral ores.
Enrichment in mining industry are the studies conducted for purifying mineral substrates (ores) to obtain valuable minerals. Studies carried out in this field include the separation of minerals desired or defined as valuable from the other substrates that may be contained in the mineral substrate. Some mineral decomposition processes include the use of magnetic reactive and strong magnetic fields. US Patent Application with publication No US4643822 discloses a method for separation of constituent minerals of a mixture of minerals comprising mixed fine particles of magnetic materials such as finely ground magnetic particles having the mixture of minerals in the presence of a surfactant. One of the problems encountered is the fact that the systems used in the studies carried out by means of the interaction with magnetic particles have macro-scale and/or complex structures. Furthermore, in said macro systems, solutions of large amount are needed for the systems designed for purification/enrichment of samples. Particularly, in purification process of some biological samples, the purification process cannot be performed since the amount of samples cannot be high.
While magnetic separation has different area of usage in the references, as result of this it is classified in different manners. It is generally examined in two ways as agglomeration and continuous separation depending on the flow rather than the particle used. When the suspension which is desired to be separated in the agglomeration is passed through a channel, the magnetic particles are generally packed inside the channels by the effect of the magnetic force acting on it. The magnetic particles are separated from nonmagnetic contaminants by being packed in said channels. Structures such as glass beads are used for packaging process inside the channel. The interaction of the magnetic particles and the solutions used herein cannot at the desired level because of the structures such as glass beads located inside the channel and ensuring the packaging. In technical solutions wherein structures such as glass beads are used as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Publication No. JP2004333401 , the interaction surface areas of magnetic particles expected to pass around these spherical structures are inadequate because of the structures of spherical glass beads and their closely arrangement inside the channel.
Concerning the purification of biological samples, US Patent Applications Publication No. US5702950 and US 6231814 relate to controlling of magnetic field towards intended direction of capillary channel by connection and removing a magnet, which is for attraction and releasing of magnetic substance and for controlling them, to end of a capillary channel. In the controlling method of attracting and releasing of this magnetic material, there is a channel device having a liquid suction line at a liquid inlet end and magnet bodies attached detachably at the outer surface of the liquid suction line of the channel device for receiving the liquid containing the magnetic material from a container and discharging the liquid through the liquid inlet end.
German Patent Application with the publication No. DE19500660A1 discloses a manipulator for microscopic particles using a novel ultra-microelectrode system that generates high frequency fields and a strong local field.
In the research of Konova I. et al., lipogenesis in 2 initial and 4 mutant strains of Penicillium chrysogenum has been investigated. In this research, Eppendorf type centrifugation was used for purification and the yield depends on quantity and source of sample. For example, it yields 4-6 pg DNA from 200 pi of blood, 10-15 pg from mouse heart and 15-20 pg from 2x106 HeLa cells according to this research.
In the research studied by Shibata Y. et al, solution and buffers technique has been used for purification and the genomic DNA can be isolated from 50 mg of tissue or 1 x 107 to 3 x 107 cells with one milliliter of reagent used in that technique.
In the research of Agrawal N. et al, microcentrifuge tube has been used for purification and the yield and quality of DNA depend greatly on the quality of the starting material, the number of cells per sample and the genome size of the sample source.

Description of the Invention
The invention relates to a method for manipulating magnetic particles in a liquid sample for efficiently collecting biological and/or chemical samples which were bound to the particles inside a solution.
The invention particularly relates to a method for the purification/enrichment of biological and/or chemical samples by microfluidic based, customized magnetic particles.
Magnetic particles are grains that can be directed under magnetic field. In the subject matter method set forth, the magnetic particles located within the microchannels are manipulated by any controllable magnetic field. A solution of the samples intended to be purified/enriched and to be passed through the microchannel is bound to magnetic particles customized according to said samples (which may interact with the sample to be purified by coating, bonding, etc.) and located inside the microchannel during its passage through the microchannel. The solution of the samples passed through the microchannel interacts with the magnetic particles located inside the microchannel and customized according to the sample within this channel. Said interaction occurs when the magnetic particles inside the channel under the influence of the magnetic field are in the same direction as the flow direction of the solution of sample, or in the reverse direction of the flow direction of the solution of sample or suspended in the solution of sample (free oscillation in the solution of sample).
In the retention/purification process of the subject matter biological and/or chemical samples, the microchannels through which the sample solution passes, and in which the magnetic particles are located can be circular/spiral, flat or in different geometric shapes according to their area of usage. Said microchannels may optionally be formed on a magnetic stand by micro/nano patterning.
The sample solution entering through the channel encounters here the magnetic particles. The magnetic particles exhibit a behavior towards the direction of flow of the sample solution inside the channel and in terms of the forces exerted on it by the effect of the magnetic field. While the magnetic particles flow through the microchannel together with the sample solution passing through the microchannel on the one hand, they can also be guided by the adjustable magnetic field with the contribution of factors such as magnetic sensitivity, size, channel form, flow rate, etc. on the other hand. Retention/purification process of biological and/or chemical samples inside the sample solution is implemented such that the volume of sample solution entering through the microchannel will be maximum 10pl.
The magnetic particles to be positioned inside the subject matter microchannels may be comprised of paramagnetic or diamagnetic particles or mixture thereof.
In paramagnetic particles, having positive substance magnetization degree, magnetic dipole moment at unit volume and the magnetic field intensity have the same direction, namely they have orientation to magnetic field effect from which they are influenced, and which are applied to them. The diamagnetic particles has negative substance magnetization degree, and its magnetic dipole moment at unit volume and its magnetic field intensity have the opposite direction.
The samples which are bound to the magnetic particles are subjected to a magnetic field to separate them from the solution and from unbound contaminants. The direction of the magnetic field is determined by turning the platform, on which the magnets are fixed, by means of a motor. Depending on whether the particles are paramagnetic or diamagnetic, clockwise or counter-clockwise rotations of the particles can be controlled with the selected rotation of the motor. The particles can be moved in the same or reverse direction as the flow direction according to the flow rate and magnitude of magnetic field applied or can be suspended inside the fluid (when drag force due to flow is in different direction with the magnetic force and equal in size with it) by selecting the flow direction according to movement direction of particles inside the magnetic field. The magnetic field used in the invention and being controllable can be generated by means of current as well as by permanent magnets such as electromagnetic field/electromagnet.
The operation of the invention has been demonstrated by preliminary proof studies with fish sperm DNA using the new platform related to the invention. In the purification step, magnetic microparticles were charged in the microchannel and the microfluidic chip was placed on the magnetic platform. The adsorption liquid with pH 6.5 was passed through the channel for 2 minutes and the surface of the magnetic microparticles was brought to suitable conditions for DNA adsorption. Then, 10pl of approximately 200-300 base pair fish sperm DNA was passed through the microchannel and sample collected at the outlet. The amount of DNA retained by the magnetic particles in the microchannel was calculated from this collected sample. DNA retained on the magnetic particles by using the new magnetic platform was recovered by desorption liquid with pH 8.5 and analyzed. All treatments lasted an average of 20 minutes in total, and 10-15 pg of DNA was retrieved from the system with new platform per 1 mg particle.
