Abstract

The invention discloses a chip for simply, conveniently and rapidly discretizing a liquid sample and a use method of the chip. The chip comprises a cover plate layer and a hydrophobic microstructure layer, and the cover plate layer comprises at least one sample inlet and an oil storage cavity; and the hydrophobic microstructure layer comprises at least one micro-cavity array, a micro-pipeline array communicated with each micro-cavity in each micro-cavity array, and at least one sample injection main pipeline. When the chip is applied to liquid-phase sample discretization operation, the method mainly comprises the following steps: assembling and degassing the chip, filling a sample, and stripping a cover plate layer from a hydrophobic microstructure layer; and based on the wettability difference of oil-phase and water-phase liquids on the surface of a structural layer and the surface tension effect of the liquids, the water-phase liquid in micro-pipelines automatically breaks and is pushed into the connected micro-cavities by the surface tension, so that a liquid sample is dispersed into each micro-cavity, and discretization is realized. The chip can realize simple, convenient, rapid, uniform and low-cost discretization treatment of the liquid sample, and can be applied to the fields of digital biological analysis, micro-nano particle preparation and the like.
