[0033] [Example 1]

[0034] See also Figures 1 to 6 As shown, it is the first embodiment of the present invention. Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment discloses a non-contact biological particle processing device 100, which includes a containing device 1, an alternating current device 2 electrically coupled to the containing device 1, a light capturing device 3 facing the containing device 1, and a trigger device 4 disposed on the containing device 1, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, in other embodiments not shown in the present invention, the non-contact biological particle processing device 100 can omit at least one of the alternating current device 2 and the light capturing device 3 according to actual needs; for example, the combination of the containing device 1 and the trigger device 4 can be used independently (e.g., sold) or used in combination with other devices.

[0035] The container 1 in this embodiment is a rectangular structure of chip-scale, and is used to contain a liquid specimen S, which includes a plurality of biological particles P and a transfection substance T, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the number of biological particles P included in the liquid specimen S can also be adjusted according to actual needs (e.g., at least one).

[0036] It should be additionally explained that the liquid sample S can be a body fluid sample from an animal (such as blood, lymph, saliva or urine), and the biological particles P can be a specific type of cell or cell cluster, such as circulating tumor cells (CTC), fetal nucleated red blood cells (FNRBCs) or bacteria, and the transfection material T has genetic material and can be at least one of ribonucleic acid (RNA), deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), exosome, liposome and virus, but the present invention is not limited to the above. For example, in other embodiments not shown in the present invention, the liquid sample S can also be a liquid sample from a plant.

[0037] The containing device 1 includes a light sensing structure 11, a matching structure 12 spaced apart from the light sensing structure 11, a plurality of frames 13 disposed between the light sensing structure 11 and the matching structure 12, and a bonding layer 14 connecting the light sensing structure 11 and the matching structure 12. Among them, at least one of the light sensing structure 11 and the matching structure 12 is transparent, and the light sensing structure 11 and the matching structure 12 are two plate-like structures disposed parallel to each other in this embodiment, and the distance between them is greater than the size of any of the biological particles P, but the present invention is not limited to the above.

[0038] In more detail, the light sensing structure 11 has a first substrate 111, a first electrode layer 112 formed on the first substrate 111, and a photoelectric layer 113 formed on the first substrate 111. In this embodiment, the first electrode layer 112 is formed on the bottom side of the first substrate 111, the photoelectric layer 113 is formed on the top side of the first substrate 111, and the photoelectric layer 113 is formed with a plurality of transistors 1131 arranged in a matrix, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0039] The matching structure 12 includes a second substrate 121 and a second electrode layer 122 formed on the second substrate 121, and the second electrode layer 122 faces the light sensing structure 11 (e.g., the photoelectric layer 113). In this embodiment, the AC device 2 is electrically coupled to the first electrode layer 112 of the light sensing structure 11 and the second electrode layer 122 of the matching structure 12, so that the light sensing structure 11 can be irradiated by the light emitted by the light capturing device 3 to form a dielectrophoresis pattern F, so as to move at least one of the biological particles P or the transfection substance T in the liquid sample S through the dielectrophoresis pattern F.

[0040] For example, the light capturing device 3 may include a camera 31 and a light source 32 matched with the camera 31. The light capturing device 3 can emit light from the light source 32 to illuminate the light sensing structure 11, so that the light sensing structure 11 forms the dielectrophoresis pattern F.

[0041] The plurality of frames 13 are sandwiched between the photoelectric layer 113 of the light sensing structure 11 and the second electrode layer 122 of the matching structure 12, and since the structures of the plurality of frames 13 are substantially the same in this embodiment, for the sake of convenience, the structure of a single frame 13 will be described below, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, in other embodiments not shown in the present invention, the structures of the plurality of frames 13 may also be slightly different.

[0042] In this embodiment, the frame 13 is a mirror-symmetrical structure, and the frame 13 includes two working sections 131 and two channel sections 132 extending from the two working sections 131. The two working sections 131 are spaced apart from each other and arranged facing each other, and the two channel sections 132 are also spaced apart from each other and arranged facing each other, but the present invention is not limited thereto. Figure 4 As shown, the frame 13 may also omit the two channel sections 132 according to actual needs.

[0043] In more detail, the two opposite ends of the two working sections 131 are respectively formed with a first opening 1311 and a second opening 1312 smaller than the first opening 1311. That is to say, the area between the two working sections 131 can be connected to the outside through the first opening 1311 and the second opening 1312 respectively. Furthermore, the two channel sections 132 are respectively connected to the two working sections 131 parts where the second opening 1312 is defined, and the two channel sections 132 are defined with a third opening 1321 away from the second opening 1312, which is larger than the second opening 1312. In this embodiment, the size of the third opening 1321 is substantially equal to the size of the second opening 1312, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0044] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the region between the two working sections 131 is formed with a receiving region 1313 and a necking region 1314 connected to the receiving region 1313, and one end of the receiving region 1313 is defined with the first opening 1311, and the necking region 1314 is defined with the second opening 1312 away from the first opening 1311. The receiving region 1313 has a width substantially the same as that of the first opening 1311, the necking region 1314 is located at the other end of the receiving region 1313, and the necking region 1314 is gradually narrowed in a direction away from the receiving region 1313, thereby defining the second opening 1312, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0045] It should be noted that at least one of the plurality of biological particles P is defined as a target biological particle P1, which has a particle size larger than the second opening 1312 but smaller than the first opening 1311, and the cell surface layer P1-1 of the target biological particle P1 has an initial permeability; for example, the cell surface layer P1-1 can be a cell membrane or a cell wall. Furthermore, the size of the transfection substance T is smaller than the second opening 1312.

[0046] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the light capturing device 3 can be used to form a first dielectrophoretic pattern F1 on the light sensing structure 11, so as to drive the target biological particle P1 through the first opening 1311 and enter between the two working sections 131 through the first dielectrophoretic pattern F1. In this embodiment, the light capturing device 3 emits light to irradiate the light sensing structure 11 to form the first dielectrophoretic pattern F1 that is closed and surrounds the target biological particle P1, and then the target biological particle P1 is moved through the first opening 1311 and enters the receiving area 1313 through the first dielectrophoretic pattern F1.

[0047] Furthermore, when the target biological particle P1 is captured within the two working sections 131, the light capturing device 3 can be used to form a second dielectrophoretic pattern F2 on the light sensing structure 11, so as to drive the transfection material T through the second opening 1312 and enter between the two working sections 131 through the second dielectrophoretic pattern F2 to achieve a transfection operation. Accordingly, in the case where the transfection material T includes the virus, during the implementation of the transfection operation, the target biological particle P1 is captured between the two working sections 131 and has the initial permeability.

[0048] It should be noted that when the target biological particle P1 is captured between the two working sections 131, the light capturing device 3 can be used to form a third dielectrophoretic pattern F3 on the light sensing structure 11, so as to maintain the target biological particle P1 between the two working sections 131 through the third dielectrophoretic pattern F3, thereby facilitating the transfection operation. Furthermore, the specific appearance of the second dielectrophoretic pattern F2 and the third dielectrophoretic pattern F3 can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0049] In addition, although the position of the target biological particle P1 is limited by the third dielectrophoretic pattern F3 in this embodiment, in other embodiments not shown in the present invention, the target biological particle P1 can also be controlled by the pressure of the liquid specimen S, thereby limiting the target biological particle P1 to a specific position.

[0050] In addition, the trigger device 4 is arranged corresponding to the frame 13, and the trigger device 4 can be used to trigger the cell outer layer P1-1 of the target biological particle P1 located between the two working sections 131, so that the cell outer layer P1-1 has a predetermined permeability greater than the initial permeability. It should be noted that the trigger device 4 can use electrical energy or light energy to instantaneously increase the permeability of the cell outer layer P1-1; for example: electroporation, laser transfection, and light injection. However, for ease of understanding, the trigger device 4 is described in this embodiment using the electroporation method, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0051] Specifically, the trigger device 4 includes two electrode pads 41 and a power source 42 electrically coupled to the two electrode pads 41. In this embodiment, the power source 42 is described as a DC power source, and the two electrode pads 41 are respectively a positive electrode and a negative electrode (e.g., the two electrode pads 41 are located in the receiving area 1313 and are respectively disposed on the inner walls of the two working sections 131), but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, in other embodiments not shown in the present invention, the power source 42 may also be an AC power source according to actual needs.

[0052] When the target biological particle P1 is captured in the containing area 1313, the power source 42 can drive the two electrode pads 41 to apply an electric field (e.g., a short-term high-intensity electric field) to at least one of the target biological particles P1, so that the target biological particle P1 forms an electroporation, thereby making the cell surface layer P1-1 have the predetermined permeability.

[0053] Accordingly, when the transfection substance T includes at least one of the RNA, the DNA, the exosome and the liposome, during the implementation of the transfection operation, the target biological particle P1 is captured between the two working sections 131 and has the predetermined permeability through the trigger device 4.

[0054] As described above, the non-contact biological particle processing equipment 100 in this embodiment cooperates with the frame 13 and the trigger device 4 and is matched with the light sensing structure 11 of the containing device 1, so that the frame 13 can be used to locate the target biological particle P1, and the trigger device 4 can improve the permeability of the cell surface layer P1-1 of the target biological particle according to needs, thereby facilitating the precise operation of the target biological particle P1.

[0055] [Example 2]

[0056] See also Figure 7 As shown, it is the second embodiment of the present invention. Since this embodiment is similar to the first embodiment, the similarities between the two embodiments are not repeated here, and the difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment mainly lies in the trigger device 4.

[0057] In this embodiment, the two electrode pads 41 are located in the necking region 1314 and are respectively disposed on the inner walls of the two working sections 131. When the target biological particle P1 is captured in the necking region 1314, the power source 42 can drive the two electrode pads 41 to apply an electric field (e.g., a short-term high-intensity electric field) to the target biological particle P1, so that the target biological particle P1 forms an electroporation, thereby making the cell outer layer P1-1 have the predetermined permeability.

[0058] Accordingly, the light capturing device 3 can confine the target biological particle P1 to the necking region 1314 by the third dielectrophoretic pattern F3, and the cell outer surface layer P1-1 of the target biological particle P1 adjacent to the second opening 1312 can be instantaneously opened by the electroporation, so that the light capturing device 3 can move the transfection substance T through the second opening 1312 to the necking region 1314 by the second dielectrophoretic pattern F2, thereby facilitating a more accurate transfection operation between the target biological particle P1 and the transfection substance T.

[0059] [Example 3]

[0060] See also Figures 8 to 10 As shown, this is the third embodiment of the present invention. Since this embodiment is similar to the above-mentioned embodiments 1 and 2, the same points of the above-mentioned embodiments are not repeated here, and the difference between this embodiment and the above-mentioned embodiments 1 and 2 mainly lies in the operation of the trigger device 4.

[0061] In this embodiment, the trigger device 4 can be used to trigger the cell surface layer P1-1 of the target biological particle P1 located between the two working sections 131, so that the cell surface layer P1-1 has a predetermined permeability greater than the initial permeability, thereby causing the target biological particle P1 to proliferate an exosome T1 (exosome) that passes through the cell surface layer P1-1.

[0062] When the target biological particle P1 is captured between the two working sections 131 and the exosomes T1 proliferate, the light capturing device 3 can be used to form a second dielectrophoretic pattern F2 on the light sensing structure 11, so as to drive the exosomes T1 to pass through the second opening 1312 from between the two working sections 131 and leave the two working sections 131 through the second dielectrophoretic pattern F2, so as to achieve a purification operation.
