Problems solved by technology

[0003] During cell micromanipulation, the positioning operation of cells is currently completed by suction and exhalation of the suction tube. It is relatively easy to use negative pressure to absorb cells, but it is a direct contact operation
The direct contact method will damage the cells and affect the success rate of the experiment

Abstract

The invention provides a single-cell clamping method and a single-cell position regulating device. The method is that in the regulating operation process of cells, fluid pressure and fluid viscosity force between clamping tubes are used for clamping the cells, the cells are wrapped and clamped to move in a non-contacting mode through the movement of the clamping tubes, and so that the position regulation of the cells is achieved. The device comprises two cell clamping tubes, two soft micro tubes, a control unit and a micropump unit which supplies the needed flow to the cell clamping tubes. Each cell clamping tube is connected with the micropump unit through the soft micro tubes, and the two cell clamping tubes are installed on the control unit and are distributed on two sides of the cells. The single-cell clamping method and the single-cell position regulating device can be suitable for the cells with different shapes and different sizes, the three-dimensional position regulation of the cells is achieved, mechanical damage to the cells can be avoided, and the single-cell clamping method and the single-cell position regulating device are beneficial to improving the success rate of cell experiment operation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of single cell position adjustment, in particular to a single cell clamping method and a position adjustment device thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, cell micromanipulation in bioengineering is basically in a manual or semi-automatic state, and there are problems such as low efficiency, low precision, low repeatability, high cost, and high labor intensity, which greatly restrict the popularization and application of micromanipulation technology . In addition, it takes 2 years to train a skilled operator. Researchers generally hope to replace manual work with machinery, and replace manual work with automation, so that micromanipulation technology can be simplified and automated, and then engineering can be realized. [0003] In the process of cell micromanipulation, the positioning operation of cells is currently completed by suction and exhalation of the suction tube. It is relatively eas...
