Automatic bacterial spore stainer

Abstract

The invention relates to an automatic bacterial spore stainer which is used for staining the bacterial spores. The technical scheme is that the automatic bacterial spore stainer comprises multiple heating bodies, a fixing base, a heating platform, a controller, a glass slide support, a horizontal displacement mechanism and a height displacement mechanism, wherein the controller, the heating platform and the height displacement mechanism are arranged on the fixing base respectively; and the heating bodies are uniformly arranged on the heating platform; and the horizontal displacement mechanism comprises a cross beam, a displacement variable-frequency motor and a displacement screw rod. According to the automatic bacterial spore stainer provided by the invention, based on the traditional spore staining principle, the problems such as bad staining effect, relatively high technical difficulty, influence of human factors on experimental results and the like in the spore staining are solved; the 'automatic spore stainer' is designed, which can be used for staining the bacterial spores of multiple samples in short time; and through numerically controlled automatic staining, an experimenter does not need to hold the stainer for operation or wait, and thus the operation is safe and quick.

Description

technical field [0001] This patent relates to a bacterial spore automatic staining instrument, which is used for the production of bacterial spore staining. Background technique [0002] At present, more and more studies have confirmed that the spore-forming strains of bacteria, especially the many populations of Bacillus, have great application value in human life and production. Spore staining is an indispensable work for screening Bacillus from the environment for morphological observation. It is also an indispensable basic work for bacterial classification, experimental exploration, and production application. in accordance with. There are two traditional operation methods for spore staining: Method 1: firstly, the strains are made into a bacterial suspension, and then the bacterial liquid and the staining liquid are mixed and heated in a boiling water bath for 15-20 min, and then sliced, fixed and stained for observation. This method is cumbersome to operate, takes a ...

Problems solved by technology

However, there are great potential safety hazards in the experiment and the dyeing technique is difficult to master, because the distance between the glass slide and the flame of the alcohol lamp is not easy to control. If the dye solution is too close, the dye solution will evaporate quickly. , contaminate hands, face, clothing, laboratory bench and surrounding environment, and even burn the operator or puncture the operator with broken glass, the bacterial cell fragmentation and dyeing fail

If the slide is too far away from the flame, the heating temperature will not meet the requirements and the staining effect will not be good. Therefore, it is very important to invent a safe and effective spore staining instrument.
