Micro-fluidic chip and method for sorting micro-nano particles through inertia turbulent flow

Abstract

The invention discloses a micro-fluidic chip and a method for sorting micro-nano particles by inertia turbulent flow. The micro-fluidic chip comprises an upper-layer substrate and a lower-layer substrate, wherein the upper-layer substrate and the lower-layer substrate are bonded together in a sealing manner to form the micro-fluidic chip; the upper-layer substrate is provided with a liquid inlet hole, an inlet liquid storage tank, an inertia flow channel, a sudden expansion flow channel, a turbulent flow barrier, an inner outlet flow channel, an inner outlet liquid storage tank, an inner liquid outlet hole, an outer outlet flow channel, an outer outlet liquid storage tank and an outer liquid outlet hole; the liquid inlet hole is sequentially communicated with the inlet liquid storage tank,the inertia flow channel and the sudden expansion flow channel; then the liquid is divided into two branches, one branch is sequentially communicated with the inner outlet flow channel, the inner outlet liquid storage pool and the inner liquid outlet hole, and the other branch is sequentially communicated with the outer outlet flow channel, the outer outlet liquid storage pool and the outer liquid outlet hole; and the turbulent flow barrier is positioned in the sudden expansion flow channel. The micro-fluidic chip overcomes the technical bottleneck that the traditional inertial micro-fluidicchip is difficult to accurately sort micro-nano particles, and has the advantages of simple structure, good control precision and high flux.
