Abstract

The invention discloses a functionalized microfluidic chip and a method for analyzing PCR products. The chip is composed of a buffer pool, a buffer waste pool, a sampling waste pool, a sample pool, a separation channel and a sampling channel. , the two ends of the separation channel are respectively connected to the buffer pool and the buffer waste pool, the two ends of the sampling channel are respectively connected to the sample pool and the sampling waste pool, and the effective length of the sampling channel is 0.5-20 cm. The method of the invention combines isotachophoretic preconcentration and sieving electrophoresis separation, the buffer solution contains trailing dielectric medium and DNA sieving medium, and the self-contained chloride ion in the PCR product is used as the leading ion. The chip only needs to introduce a buffer solution, reduces the number of electrodes required, simplifies the operation, has the advantages of sensitivity and rapid analysis, and can effectively reduce the PCR reaction time by improving the detection sensitivity. The invention can analyze PCR products sensitively, rapidly and conveniently.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of biological analysis, and in particular relates to a functionalized microfluidic chip for analyzing PCR products and a method for analyzing PCR products. Background technique [0002] Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is one of the most widely used techniques in DNA research, through which the template DNA copy can be amplified by 10 6 times or more to meet analysis needs. The PCR product components are the amplified DNA fragments dissolved in the PCR buffer. [0003] The traditional PCR product analysis method is gel electrophoresis separation combined with gel imaging. The disadvantages of this method are low sensitivity and long amplification time for low-copy DNA templates. In addition, the method based on gel electrophoresis has the disadvantages of cumbersome operation and large sample consumption. In actual operation, a PCR product analysis method with high sensitivity, simple operation and fast an...
