Problems solved by technology

[0004] After using the above-mentioned fluid system to form a stable liquid flow of single cell arrangement, cell counting can be performed, but when this flow cytometer is used to detect the number of bacteria in beverages, the following problems will occur: (1) The liquid flow system is complex, The pipeline is very long, it is very inconvenient to clean, and it is difficult to avoid cross-contamination for samples containing bacteria
The actual detection experiment results show that after the detection of bacteria-containing samples (such as Yakult), more than half an hour of cleaning is required before the bacterial signal of the sample can not be detected. Such a long cleaning time means that flow cytometry is not applicable. It is used for the rapid detection of the number of bacteria in beverages; moreover, bacteria are different from animal and plant cells, the latter cannot reproduce after leaving the appropriate culture medium, pH, temperature and other environments, while the former has a strong reproductive ability, as long as the fluid system has dead ends and is not cleaned Clean, it is easy to breed bacteria, resulting in scrapped flow path
(2) The volume of sample liquid and sheath liquid required for flow cytometry work is too large (because of its long pipeline and large inner diameter), resulting in a large consumption of fluorescent dyes and high experimental costs
(3) Flow cytometry is designed for cell detection, not for bacteria detection. Since the size of bacteria and cells is not on the same order of magnitude, the detection ability of flow cytometry for bacteria is basically close to its lower limit of detection, and there may be multiple When several bacteria are tested together, it is difficult to guarantee the accuracy of the test results
