Embodiment 1

[0040] Example 1 Preparation of microfluidic chip

[0041] 1.1 First, for the structural part of the microfluidic chip 100, use AutoCAD drawing software to draw the required structural graphics, make a mask plate, and use a four-inch single crystal silicon wafer as the substrate for thermal oxidation to form a 2 μm oxide layer. Then perform glue-coating photolithography, reactive ion etching, glue-removing cleaning, glue-coating photolithography, and deep reactive ion etching to etch out the height of the filter channel in the circulating tumor capture area. Then remove the photoresist and perform deep reactive ion etching according to the silicon dioxide pattern to etch the height of other channels of the chip and the depth of the nucleic acid microcavity, and finally obtain a silicon wafer mold with a microstructure .

[0042] 1.2 Place the silicon wafer mold and the open centrifuge tube containing 10 μL of fluorosilane in a vacuum drying oven, vacuum to negative pressure t...

Abstract

The invention provides a microfluidic chip integrating circulating tumor cell capture, lysis and nucleic acid detection, and a device and method of microfluidic chip. The microfluidic chip is formed by laminating a glass base layer and a polydimethylsiloxane chip layer. The polydimethylsiloxane chip layer comprises the following parts: a circulating tumor cell capture zone; a nucleic acid detection zone comprising a feeding channel with a flexible sidewall, a microcavity array region and a sample outlet; and a valve control region comprising: T-shaped pipe structures respectively disposed on both sides of the feeding channel, wherein the structure includes a first pipe extending parallel to the feeding channel and a second pipe vertically connected to the feeding channel, and the second pipe is connected to a gas supply mechanism to control the opening and closing of the feeding channel by controlling the opening and closing of the gas supply mechanism. According to the present invention, the microfluidic chip integrating the circulating tumor cell capture, lysis and nucleic acid detection, and the device and method have the advantages of high throughput, low cost, high sensitivity, easy usage, and short time consumption.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of microfluidics, and more specifically relates to a microfluidic chip, a device and a method thereof that integrate capture, lysis and nucleic acid detection of circulating tumor cells. Background technique [0002] Worldwide, the incidence of cancer has remained high for a long time, and it is the main cause of death in cancer patients. The same is true in China, regardless of rural cities, regardless of men and women, cancer is still one of the diseases with a very high mortality rate, and has become a major issue affecting public health. The key to fighting cancer is early diagnosis and treatment of primary cancer. [0003] Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are tumor cells that have shed from the primary tumor lesion and invaded the peripheral blood circulation. Since CTCs are closely related to the development and metastasis of cancer, and besides containing genetic material similar to the primary tissue, CTCs also...
