DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0049] The following will be described in detail in combination with the accompanying Figures 1-8 Further detailed description will be made to the present application.

[0050] The embodiments of the present application disclose a nucleic acid extraction device based on membrane adsorption method. Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The nucleic acid extraction device comprises an extraction box 100 and a reagent bin 200, a sample bin 300, a waste liquid recovery assembly 400 and a reaction bin 500 arranged in the extraction box 100. First, a sample is added into the sample bin 300, then the liquid inlet of the sample bin 300 is blocked, the reagent in the reagent bin 200 is intermittently delivered to the sample bin 300, the nucleic acid in the sample bin 300 is extracted, the waste liquid generated in the process of extracting the nucleic acid is recovered by the waste liquid recovery assembly 400, and the extracted nucleic acid is extracted into the reaction bin 500, and then the nucleic acid in the reaction bin 500 is detected by a detection device to obtain a nucleic acid detection result.

[0051] Referring to Figure 2 The sample bin 300 is provided with a filter membrane 301, and after the sample is added into the sample bin 300, the sample is supported on the upper surface of the filter membrane 301.

[0052] The top of the sample bin 300 is provided with a sample bin opening 302, the sidewall of the reagent bin 200 is provided with a sample inlet 201 and a sample outlet 202, the sample outlet 202 communicates with the sample bin opening 302, the sample inlet 201, the sample outlet 202 and the sample bin opening 302 are coaxially arranged, and the sample bin 300 can be added with samples through the sample inlet 201, the sample outlet 202 and the sample bin opening 302, and after the sample is added into the sample bin 300, the sample bin sealing plug 303 is passed through the sample inlet 201, the sample outlet 202 and blocked at the sample bin opening 302, so as to seal the sample bin 300.

[0053] After the sample bin 300 is sealed, the reagent in the reagent bin 200 is transported into the sample bin 300.

[0054] Referring to Figure 2 , the reagent bin 200 is provided with an operating rod 203, in the embodiment, the operating rod 203 is slidingly connected with the sidewall of the extraction box 100, in another embodiment, the operating rod 203 is threadedly connected with the inner wall of the extraction box 100, and the operating rod 203 is moved by using the threaded connection, and in other embodiments, the operating rod 203 can also be moved in the axial direction by other ways.

[0055] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , one end of the operating rod 203 extends out of the reagent bin 200, and the end of the operating rod 203 extending out of the reagent bin 200 is provided with an operating rod clamping groove 204, and the operating rod clamping groove 204 is used for facilitating personnel to operate the operating rod 203.

[0056] Referring to Figure 2 , a plurality of reagent partitions 205 are installed on the rod wall of the operating rod 203, and a reagent containing cavity 206 is formed between the plurality of reagent partitions 205. Among them, the reagent bin 200 and the sample bin 300 are connected with a reagent channel 207, and the reagent in the reagent containing cavity 206 can flow into the sample bin 300 through the reagent channel 207.

[0057] Referring to Figure 3In the embodiment, the reagent septum 205 is composed of an elastic rubber sealing gasket, the operating rod 203 penetrates the center of the reagent septum 205, and the reagent septum 205 close to the liquid inlet 211 of the reagent channel 207 is in sliding connection with the operating rod 203, but there is a certain friction between the operating rod 203 and the reagent septum 205. A certain counter thrust is required between the operating rod 203 and the reagent septum 205, and the two can only slide relative to each other under this restriction. When the operating rod 203 is pulled out of the extraction box 100, the operating rod 203 drives all the reagent septa 205 to move. When the reagent septum 205 closest to the liquid inlet 211 of the reagent channel 207 abuts against the end face side wall of the reagent bin 200, the operating rod 203 moves, the reagent septum 205 is fixed, another reagent septum 205 moves, and then the reagent in the reagent containing cavity 206 is pushed into the reagent channel 207 and flows into the sample bin 300 from the reagent channel 207.

[0058] In this process, after the reagent in one reagent containing cavity 206 is transported into the sample bin 300, a period of time is needed to wait for the reagent to fully react with the sample, and then the reagent in another reagent containing cavity 206 is transported into the sample bin 300 for the next reaction. The present application greatly facilitates the test personnel to judge whether the reagent in one reagent containing cavity 206 has been completely transported into the sample bin 300 by the force of pulling the operating rod 203, and thus helps the test personnel to control the process of nucleic acid extraction and improve the accuracy of subsequent detection results.

[0059] Referring to Figure 3 In order to fully utilize the space of the reagent bin 200 to make the nucleic acid extraction device more miniaturized, the side surface of the reagent septum 205 is provided with a superposition groove 208, and the side surface of another reagent septum 205 is integrally formed with a superposition part 209. When the reagent septa 205 are superposed, the superposition part 209 is embedded in the superposition groove 208, further reducing the occupied space when the reagent septa 205 are superposed, and such a configuration makes the contact area of the side surface of the reagent septum 205 with the inner wall of the reagent bin 200 larger, and the sealing performance of the reagent septum 205 stronger.

[0060] In order to ensure that the reagent in the reagent containing cavity 206 can be effectively transported into the reagent channel 207, the reagent septum 205 farthest from the liquid inlet 211 of the reagent channel 207 in all the reagent septa 205 is fixedly connected with the operating rod 203. The end portion of the operating rod 203 located in the reagent bin 200 is fixed with a disc 210, and the disc 210 is embedded in the superposition groove 208 of the reagent septum 205. When the operating rod 203 is pulled out of the extraction box 100, the disc 210 is used to pull the reagent septum 205 to move, so as to ensure that the reagent containing cavity 206 can be squeezed.

[0061] With reference to Figure 3 When no detection is performed, the liquid inlet 211 of the reagent channel 207 is located in the cavity between the end face of the reagent bin 200 and the reagent septum 205, and no reagent is added between the reagent bin 200 and the reagent septum 205; after the reagent septum 205 is moved by the operating rod 203, the reagent containing cavity 206 is in communication with the liquid inlet 211 of the reagent channel 207, and liquid is normally discharged at this time. When a plurality of reagent septa 205 are stacked, the plurality of stacked reagent septa 205 are located in the cavity between the reagent bin 200 and the reagent septum 205, at this time, in order to smoothly discharge the reagent containing cavity 206 farthest from the liquid inlet 211 of the reagent channel 207, the size of the liquid inlet 211 of the reagent channel 207 increases towards the reagent bin 200, and the opening is inclined towards the reagent containing cavity 206 located at the farthest position. Such a setting allows the reagent bin 200 to maximize the use of multiple reagent septa 205 to separate reagents in a smaller space, ensuring the accuracy of nucleic acid extraction while ensuring the compactness of the extraction box 100.

[0062] As for the method of how the reagent is added to the reagent bin 200, the opening on one side of the reagent bin 200 can be selected to add the reagent to the reagent containing cavity 206, and then the opening is sealed by ultrasonic waves. Other methods can also be selected.

[0063] With reference to Figure 2 The side wall of the sample bin 300 close to the bottom is provided with a waste liquid discharge port 304, and the waste liquid generated in the nucleic acid extraction is discharged through the waste liquid discharge port 304. The waste liquid recovery assembly 400 comprises a waste liquid bin 401, and a waste liquid flow pipe 402 is connected between the waste liquid bin 401 and the waste liquid discharge port 304. The waste liquid flow pipe 402 is arranged in a serpentine shape, which is beneficial to prolong the waste liquid flow pipe 402, so that the sample bin 300 can maintain a certain airtightness after the waste liquid enters the waste liquid flow pipe 402, thereby facilitating the subsequent extraction of the extracted nucleic acid.

[0064] The side wall of the waste liquid bin 401 is connected with a waste liquid exhaust pipe 403, and the exhaust end of the waste liquid exhaust pipe 403 is in communication with the outside of the extraction box 100. The reagent is added to the sample bin 300, and the pressure is formed in the sample bin 300 during the liquid adding process. The sample and the reagent are mixed and reacted, and the generated waste liquid directly flows to the waste liquid bin 401.

[0065] With reference to Figure 4 The reagents in the other reagent containing cavities 206 are sequentially and intermittently transported to the sample bin 300, and after the sample is reacted with the reagent for multiple times, the final nucleic acid extraction liquid is formed.

[0066] With reference to Figure 5The reaction chamber 500 is equipped with an inlet channel 501 and an outlet channel 502. The inlet channel 501 is connected to the sample chamber 300, and the outlet channel 502 is connected to the reagent chamber 200. The reagent chamber 200 is equipped with a reaction chamber aspiration plug 503. During nucleic acid extraction, the reaction chamber aspiration plug 503 is used to block the outlet channel 502. When it is necessary to extract the extracted nucleic acid into the reaction chamber 500, the reaction chamber aspiration plug 503 is removed by the operating rod 203, so that the outlet channel 502 of the reaction chamber 500 is opened.

[0067] In this embodiment, a connecting block 504 is fixed to the end face of the disk 210, and an operating lever buckle 600 is connected to the side of the connecting block 504 away from the disk 210. Referring to... Figure 5 The operating lever latch 600 includes a first connecting part 601 and a first latching part 602. The first connecting part 601 is connected to the connecting block 504. The first latching part 602 is integrally formed on the end of the first connecting part 601. The circumference of the first connecting part 601 gradually decreases in the direction away from the first connecting part 601. A first latching groove 505 is provided on the side of the reaction chamber liquid suction plug 503.

[0068] Reference Figure 5 The reaction chamber suction plug 503 is made of elastic rubber plug. When the operating lever buckle 600 is pushed toward the reaction chamber suction plug 503, the first buckle part 602 is squeezed into the first buckle groove 505. At this time, the first buckle part 602 is buckled and connected to the reaction chamber suction plug 503.

[0069] Reference Figure 6 Then, pull the operating lever 203 outward, and the reaction chamber aspiration plug 503 will disengage from the liquid outlet channel 502. A suction cavity 506 will be formed between the reaction chamber aspiration plug 503 and the inner wall of the end face of the reagent chamber 200, thereby extracting the nucleic acid already extracted in the sample chamber 300 into the reaction chamber 500, realizing the transfer of nucleic acid.

[0070] In another embodiment, reference is made to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The operating lever latch 600 includes a second connecting portion 603 and a second latching portion 604. The cross-section of the second latching portion 604 is larger than that of the second connecting portion 603. A through groove 605 is axially formed on the side of the second latching portion 604. A second latching groove 507 is formed on the side of the reaction chamber suction plug 503. A limiting portion 508 is fixed to the groove wall of the second latching groove 507. When the operating lever latch 600 is brought close to the reaction chamber suction plug 503, the limiting portion 508 passes through the through groove 605. Then, the operating lever latch 600 is rotated so that the limiting portion 508 abuts against the second latching portion 604. At this time, pulling the operating lever 203 can move the reaction chamber suction plug 503. In other embodiments, the quick connection between the operating lever latch 600 and the reaction chamber suction plug 503 can also be achieved in other ways.

[0071] Referring to Figure 3 In order to ensure that the sample chamber sealing plug 303 can smoothly enter the sample chamber opening 302, a sample through hole 509 with a hole size larger than the sample inlet 201 and the sample outlet 202 is formed in the center of the connecting block 504. At this time, the sample chamber sealing plug 303 is driven by a tool to pass through the sample inlet 201, the sample through hole 509, the sample outlet 202 in turn and plug in the sample chamber opening 302.

[0072] In addition, the operating rod 203 and the operating rod buckle 600 are both hollow structures, which are beneficial to reduce the weight and improve the convenience of taking the extraction box 100. The hollow structure is beneficial to simplify the manufacturing process and reduce the manufacturing cost. Compared with the solid structure, the hollow structure is more beneficial to reduce the deformation amount of the operating rod 203 during the manufacturing process, and ensures the straightness of the operating rod 203.

[0073] The implementation principle of the nucleic acid extraction device based on the membrane adsorption method is that the reagent is integrated in the extraction box 100. When the reagent is transported into the sample chamber 300, the nucleic acid extraction process is fully closed, which is beneficial to reduce the contact between the sample or the reagent and the external environment, and improve the accuracy of nucleic acid detection. At the same time, by moving the operating rod 203, the reagents in different reagent chambers 200 can be transported into the sample chamber 300 in intervals, so as to realize the extraction of nucleic acid. The present application scheme uses very few mechanical actions to extract nucleic acid, which is beneficial to reduce the operation steps of personnel, improve the nucleic acid extraction efficiency, and at the same time, the device has low structural complexity, which is beneficial to reduce the cost. The device is small and convenient to operate, and there is no complex operation in the extraction process, which is efficient and safe.
