Problems solved by technology

Although the Desulfovibrio successfully cultivated by the institute is an anaerobic bacterium, many anaerobic bacteria can still survive under a certain oxygen concentration (2%-8%), but experiments have shown that it is difficult to survive in long-term culture. Ensure the steady-state growth (logarithmic growth) of anaerobic bacteria, and the mortality rate will be greatly improved; 2-10%), the physiological state is very different; the limitations of its device design can not reach the strict anaerobic level, and can not realize the further realization of liquid culture

Embodiment 1

[0064] This embodiment provides a kind of anaerobic microorganism culture and real-time observation device, such as figure 1 shown, which includes:

[0065] base 1 (eg figure 2 as shown), upper cover 2 (as image 3 shown), microfluidic chip, chip fixed plate 3 (such as Figure 4 Shown) and culture solution storage chamber (storage chamber body 4 and storage chamber loam cake 5 constitute, as Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown).

[0066] There are 8 evenly distributed and corresponding screw holes 17 and 26 on the edge of the contact surface where the base 1 and the upper cover 2 are fastened to each other, and the sealing and fastening between the base 1 and the upper cover 2 are realized by screws; the contact of the base 1 An annular groove 15 is formed on the edge of the surface, and the annular groove 15 is used for accommodating the rubber ring to further seal the base 1 and the upper cover 2 to ensure the airtightness of the device.

[0067]The base 1 is provided with ...

Embodiment 2

[0081] This embodiment provides a method for real-time observation and cultivation of anaerobic microorganisms, which uses the anaerobic microorganism cultivation and real-time observation device of Embodiment 1 to operate, including the following steps:

[0082] Prepare a microfluidic chip with a built-in anaerobic microorganism (the facultative anaerobic bacteria Escherichia coli used in this example) seed solution, the microfluidic chip consists of a glass slide and a chip structure sealed on the glass slide , the chip structure is communicated by the main channel with many sub-channels perpendicular to it, and the inlet port and the outlet port are connected with the main channel; the micro-control flow chip is placed in the third groove, and its inlet port passes through the pipeline and the culture solution storage chamber The outlet port is connected with the liquid outlet on the side wall of the upper cover; after the pipeline is connected, the upper cover and the botto...

Embodiment 3

[0086] In this implementation, an airtightness verification test is carried out for the anaerobic microorganism cultivation and real-time observation device in Example 1. When the gas is continuously fed, the whole device is placed in water without visible gas leakage, indicating that its airtightness is excellent.

[0087] For the verification of anaerobic atmosphere, Mitsubishi MGC oxygen indicator is used, and the experimental results are as follows Figure 10 shown. Depend on Figure 10 It can be seen intuitively that the oxygen concentration in the cultured gas environment is less than 0.1%, which is lower than the minimum detection limit.
