Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of gene detection, and in particular relates to a carbapenem-resistant gene detection device and a detection method. Background Art
[0002] Currently, bacterial resistance has become a major challenge in the field of global public health. Among them, the infection situation caused by carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriales (CRE) is the most serious. The production of carbapenemases is the main mechanism of resistance of Enterobacteriales to carbapenems. Accurate and rapid detection and typing of carbapenemases produced by CRE is of great value for precise drug use in clinical anti-infection treatment and prevention and control of hospital infections.
[0003] Microfluidic chip technology has the advantages of being fast, simple, highly specific, highly sensitive, and high-throughput, and is used for bacterial identification. This technology is used to analyze KPC, NDM, IMP, and VIM resistance genes. The sequencing results are used as the gold standard to calculate specificity and sensitivity, providing data for clinical anti-infection treatment.
[0004] When in use, the microfluidic chip needs to be placed in a detection chamber, which integrates three modules: pneumatic control, optical detection and constant temperature. The pneumatic system precisely controls the flow of sample fluid (carbapenem) in the chip; the optical module is responsible for stimulating fluorescence signals and collecting detection data; the constant temperature module maintains the reaction temperature to ensure isothermal amplification of the sample.

At this time, the electric telescopic rod 11 is moved downward, and the first spring will push the connecting plate 8, so that the connecting plate 8 drives the suction cup 10 to move downward, and the suction cup 10 will drive the chip to move downward. At this time, the bottom surface of the chip will contact the inner wall of the groove 5, and then the electric telescopic rod 11 is closed, thereby fixing the microfluidic chip 6 in the groove 5. Microfluidic chips 6 of different models and sizes can be fixed by the suction cup 10, thereby improving the practicality of the entire device. Then, the pneumatic control module is used to control the flow of the sample in the microfluidic chip 6, and the optical detection module maintains a constant temperature for the microfluidic chip 6.

[0026] The detection platform 4 is provided with multiple groups of slide grooves 32 corresponding to the sealing ring 18, and the slide groove 32 is sealed and slidably connected with a magnetic block 20, and the inner wall of the slide groove 32 is slidably connected with a magnetic plate 22 that repels the magnetic block 20, and a second spring is fixedly connected between the side of the magnetic plate 22 away from the sealing ring 18 and the inner wall of the slide groove 32, and a connecting line 23 is fixedly connected between the bottom surface of the magnetic plate 22 and the connecting plate 8, and a through groove 21 communicating with the slide groove 32 is provided on the inner wall of the connecting hole, the interior of the sealing ring 18 is a hollow structure, and the outer wall of the sealing ring 18 is provided with a through hole corresponding to the through groove 21, and the inner wall of the cavity 7 is fixedly connected with a positioning plate 19; When the connecting plate 8 of the present application moves downward, it will drive the suction cup 10 to move downward, so that the suction cup 10 enters the connecting hole and contacts the sealing ring 18. At the same time, the connecting plate 8 will contact the positioning. At the same time, the connecting line 23 will also pull the magnetic plate 22 downward, so that the magnetic plate 22 moves away from the front of the magnetic block 20. At this time, the magnetic block 20 will move under the push of the second spring, so that the gas in the slide groove 32 enters the sealing ring 18 from the through groove 21, so that the sealing ring 18 expands and further fits with the suction cup 10 to improve the sealing effect of the cavity 7.

[0027] Example 2: Figure 6 As shown, compared with Example 1, another embodiment of the present invention is: a group of rotatable shafts 24 are provided on the top surface of the connecting plate 8, and a group of driving blades 25 are fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the shaft 24, and a driving component for driving the shaft 24 to rotate is provided on the connecting plate 8; when the constant temperature rod 17 heats the cavity 7, the driving component can be used to drive the shaft 24 to rotate. At this time, the driving blades 25 will rotate, so that the driving blades 25 stir the gas above the connecting plate 8, thereby improving the efficiency of the constant temperature rod 17 in heating the gas. At the same time, due to the stirring of the gas, the gas can also be better in a uniform temperature state, thereby improving the constant temperature effect of the microfluidic chip 6.
[0028] The driving assembly includes a rectangular groove 27 opened on the bottom surface of the connecting plate 8, and a rectangular plate 26 is arranged in the rectangular groove 27.

After that, when the rectangular plate 26 continues to move downward, the limiting ring 29 will limit the piston 30.

The microfluidic chip 6 is then placed on the limit block 15. The connecting plate 8 is then moved up and down by the cooperation between the output end of the electric telescopic rod 11 and the first spring, so that the connecting plate 8 pushes the gas in the cavity 7 to be sprayed from the gas outlet 13 onto the microfluidic chip 6. S2: Press the microfluidic chip 6 to adsorb on the suction cup 10, and then move the output end of the electric telescopic rod 11 downward. At this time, the first spring pushes the connecting plate 8, so that the connecting plate 8 drives the microfluidic chip 6 on the suction cup 10 to contact the inner wall of the groove 5; S3: The sample is sucked into the inlet of the microfluidic chip 6 through the pneumatic control module, flows through the chamber pre-stored with the lysis reagent, and enters the heating zone after mixing. The pneumatic membrane pump drives the mixed liquid through the built-in silica membrane microcolumn or magnetic bead capture area of the chip. The waste liquid is pumped into the waste liquid tank. The purified nucleic acid is bound to the membrane / magnetic beads, and the washing buffer is pumped in for cleaning; S4: The pneumatic membrane pump accurately delivers the eluted nucleic acid solution to multiple parallel PCR micro-reaction pools of the microfluidic chip 6. At the same time, the pre-mixed PCR master mix is pumped in. The nucleic acid template and reaction reagents are mixed and redissolved in the micro-reaction pools. The PMT does not work to confirm whether the liquid fills the reaction pools. S5: The cavity 7 is heated by the thermostatic rod 17, and the driving blade 25 is rotated, so that the driving blade 25 stirs the gas above the connecting plate 8 until the temperature in the cavity 7 is heated to 64°C-66°C. At this time, the heat in the cavity 7 is applied to the microfluidic chip 6 on the groove 5, thereby providing a constant temperature effect for the microfluidic chip 6; S6: The optical module is responsible for stimulating fluorescence signals and collecting test data to complete the detection of carbapenem-resistant genes.
[0031] Working principle: By injecting the carbapenem sample into the microfluidic chip 6, then placing the microfluidic chip 6 on the suction cup 10, and pressing the microfluidic chip 6 to adsorb on the suction cup 10, then closing the sealing cover 2, at this time, let the electric telescopic rod 11 move downward, at this time the first spring will push the connecting plate 8, so that the connecting plate 8 drives the suction cup 10 to move downward, at this time the suction cup 10 will drive the chip downward, at this time the bottom surface of the chip will contact the inner wall of the groove 5, and then close the electric telescopic rod 11, thereby fixing the microfluidic chip 6 in the groove 5, and the suction cup 10 can be used to fix microfluidic chips 6 of different models and sizes.
