Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of nucleic acid extraction devices, and in particular to a nucleic acid extraction device and an extraction method. Background Art

[0002] Nucleic acid testing of pigs is an efficient and accurate detection method that plays an important role in the diagnosis, monitoring and prevention of pig diseases. Nucleic acid testing can be used to diagnose a variety of pig diseases such as swine fever, African swine fever, pseudorabies, etc. By detecting the DNA or RNA of pathogens in pigs, it can be accurately determined whether the pigs are infected with related viruses. During the peak period of the epidemic or in the area where the epidemic is spreading, by regularly collecting pig samples for nucleic acid testing, the epidemic dynamics can be discovered in a timely manner, providing important data support for epidemic prevention and control.

[0003] However, when the existing pig nucleic acid is tested, when the sampled nucleic acid test stick is stored, the nucleic acid test stick needs to be placed in a multifunctional sampling tube, the handle needs to be broken, and it needs to be clearly marked. When the operator breaks the handle, he must ensure that the position of the sample tube nucleic acid test stick in the container multifunctional sampling tube is neither offset nor unstable. This is because any slight shaking may affect the smooth breaking of the handle and may even damage the sample tube, resulting in sample contamination or failure to successfully break the handle. However, the existing collection tube design has not fully taken this into consideration. The existing collection tube has a relatively simple design and lacks sufficient stability and support, so that the sample tube nucleic acid test stick is easily shaken during the process of breaking the handle. This shaking not only increases the difficulty of breaking the handle, but also greatly increases the risk of sample contamination.

[0004] Existing pig nucleic acid specimens need to be manually shaken by operators after collection. During the shaking process, the cell walls or tissue structures in the sample will be broken by physical force, making the nucleic acid in the cells easier to extract. Moderate shaking can also help remove impurities in the sample and improve the purity of the nucleic acid. However, if the physical force generated during the shaking process is too large, it may cause damage to the sample, especially for those fragile cells or tissue structures, which will affect the integrity and extraction efficiency of the nucleic acid. If a separate instrument is used for shaking, additional operating steps and time are required, which may increase the workload of the experimenter. Especially when processing a large number of samples, this cumbersome operating process may reduce work efficiency.

[0005] Therefore, a nucleic acid extraction device and an extraction method are proposed to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of this, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to propose a nucleic acid extraction device and extraction method to solve the problems of easy contamination during collection of pig nucleic acid samples and low detection efficiency caused by the single mixing and shaking after sample collection in the existing technology.

The anti-falling mechanism includes a multi-functional clamping and prying plate, and the middle part of the multi-functional clamping and prying plate is rotatably connected to a support plate, and the support plate is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the upper end of the preheating and dispersion cylinder at one end away from the multi-functional clamping and prying plate. One end of the multi-functional clamping and prying plate is fixedly connected to a pressing plate, and the other end of the multi-functional clamping and prying plate is fixedly connected to a splint. A card slot is provided at the upper end of the preheating and dispersion cylinder, and a second return spring is evenly and fixedly connected in the card slot, and the second return spring is fixedly connected to the splint of the multi-functional clamping and prying plate at one end away from the card slot.

[0014] Preferably, the auxiliary sampling mechanism includes a retaining ring, which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the upper end of the multifunctional sampling tube. A limiting hole is provided on the retaining ring. A sealing cover is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the upper end of the multifunctional sampling tube.

[0015] Preferably, the nucleic acid detection stick is arranged below the retaining ring near the nucleic acid extraction end, an auxiliary groove is provided on the nucleic acid detection stick, and the nucleic acid detection stick is arranged at the upper end of the multifunctional sampling tube.

[0016] The nucleic acid extraction device and the extraction method include the following steps:

[0017] Step 1: Sampling of clinical specimens: Use a nucleic acid detection stick to scrape the inside of the pig's mouth, cheeks, and nasal cavity. If necessary, such as anal swabs or vaginal swabs, they must also be collected according to the corresponding methods. Then, place the nucleic acid detection stick in a multi-functional sampling tube, break off the handle, and mark it clearly;

[0018] Step 2: Extraction of nucleic acid: Extract viral RNA or DNA from the sample. RNA can be reverse transcribed (converting RNA into cDNA) to obtain a certain number of DNA or cDNA molecules;

[0019] Step 3: Multiplex quantitative PCR detection and nanopore sequencing library construction. After 1.5 hours of multiplex quantitative PCR detection, a graphical curve display can be obtained on the terminal. After 10 minutes of nanopore sequencing library construction, the ends of these DNA or cDNA molecules are repaired and connected to sequencing adapters to complete the library construction. Then, they are placed in the sequencing chip. The process of molecules entering and passing through the nanopore is monitored in real time by an electrical signal feedback system, and the sequence information of each molecule is recorded.

[0020] Step 4, MinION sequencing: Basic preprocessing is performed on the data obtained through sequencing, such as filtering low-quality data, removing the sequencing adapter sequences, splicing and assembling the DNA or cDNA sequences, etc.; finally, the data results are compared with the known gene library, and the viral infection status and abnormal genes are identified through Centrifuge software analysis (R language analysis).

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a nucleic acid extraction device and method, which have the following beneficial effects:

[0022] 1. Through the setting of the retaining ring and the anti-slip limiting plate in the present invention, the nucleic acid detection end of the nucleic acid detection stick is placed at the bottom of the retaining ring and in the limiting hole, and the limiting action of the limiting hole and the anti-slip limiting plate on the detection rod of the nucleic acid detection stick makes the detection rod stably tilted at the upper end of the multi-functional sampling tube. At this time, when the sealing cover is closed, the auxiliary groove of the nucleic acid detection stick is pressed and engaged by the anti-slip limiting plate. At this time, the operator can easily break the handle of the nucleic acid detection stick. Compared with the prior art, through the setting of the present invention, the operator only needs to tilt the nucleic acid detection stick and the limiting hole and then press the sealing cover to easily break the handle. This can not only avoid the sample falling and contamination phenomenon caused by the sliding of the nucleic acid detection stick when breaking in the prior art, but also reduce the operator's control over the breaking of the nucleic acid detection stick, enhance the operator's stability and anti-falling when breaking the handle of the nucleic acid detection stick, and thus reduce the contamination phenomenon during sample collection.

[0023] 2. The uniform dispersion preheating adjustment mechanism can not only control the shaking inside the specimen, but also enable the turntable to push the preheating dispersion cylinder to slide back and forth in the isolation cover through the arc surface setting of the inclined convex corner block. By controlling the rotation speed of the motor, the frequency of the reciprocating sliding of the preheating dispersion cylinder in the isolation cover can be directly controlled. This can not only reduce the damage to the sample caused by excessive physical force generated during the shaking process, especially for those fragile cells or tissue structures, but also increase the integrity and efficiency of nucleic acid extraction.

[0024] Moreover, by placing the multifunctional sampling tube in a preheated dispersion cylinder for storage, not only can the contamination from external pollution be reduced, but the rotation of the turntable can also drive multiple collected samples to be properly shaken, further ensuring that the cells or tissues in the sample can be effectively lysed, thereby releasing nucleic acids. In addition, the multifunctional sampling tube surface can be stably clamped by the multifunctional clamping pry plate, so that the multifunctional sampling tube can be stably stored in the preheated dispersion cylinder during transportation, thereby reducing the occurrence of problems such as falling and loss of collected samples.

[0025] 3. According to the invention, a copper electrified ring is sleeved on the outer surface of the preheating dispersion cylinder. When the preheating dispersion cylinder slides back and forth on the isolation cover, in order to denature the protein in the sample, thereby destroying the structure of the cell wall and cell membrane, the nucleic acid in the cell is more easily released, and a moderate heating method is adopted for nucleic acid extraction. By passing current into multiple copper electrified rings connected in series, more accurate and efficient heating is achieved. In addition, a temperature sensor is installed near the multifunctional sampling tube, which can monitor and control the internal temperature in real time, thereby ensuring that the heating process is both fast and stable. Compared with traditional heating methods, the present invention greatly shortens the heating time, and the temperature control is more precise, reducing the risk of nucleic acid degradation caused by temperature fluctuations. More importantly, through the design of the present invention, we can not only achieve batch, controllable temperature heating treatment, but also shake the specimen during the heating process. This shaking is conducive to uniform heating inside the sample, so that the nucleic acid can be released more quickly, thereby further improving the efficiency of nucleic acid extraction.

A first return spring 28 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the shock-absorbing block 27. One end of the first return spring 28 away from the shock-absorbing block 27 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the preheating dispersion cylinder 12.

[0048] Among them, the copper power rings 29 arranged on the circumference of the upper surface of the isolation cover 11 are fixedly connected in series to the non-metallic baffle, and a temperature sensor device is arranged on the circumference of the baffle to detect the internal temperature of the preheating dispersion cylinder 12.

[0049] Compared with the prior art, through the implementation of this embodiment, the present invention greatly shortens the heating time, and the temperature control is more precise, reducing the risk of nucleic acid degradation caused by temperature fluctuations. More importantly, through the design of the present invention, we can not only achieve batch, temperature-controlled heating treatment, but also shake the specimen during the heating process. This shaking is conducive to uniform heating inside the sample, allowing the nucleic acid to be released more quickly, thereby further improving the efficiency of nucleic acid extraction.

[0050] For further examples, please refer to Figures 1 to 7 As shown:

[0051] The upper end of the preheating and dispersing cylinder 12 is also provided with an anti-falling mechanism 3, which is used to prevent the multifunctional sampling tube 13 from falling off. The anti-falling mechanism 3 includes a multifunctional clamping and prying plate 31, and the middle part of the multifunctional clamping and prying plate 31 is rotatably connected to a support plate 32. The support plate 32 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the upper end of the preheating and dispersing cylinder 12 at one end away from the multifunctional clamping and prying plate 31. A pressing plate is fixedly connected to one end of the multifunctional clamping and prying plate 31, and the other end of the multifunctional clamping and prying plate 31 is fixedly connected to a splint. A card slot is opened at the upper end of the preheating and dispersing cylinder 12, and a second return spring 33 is evenly and fixedly connected in the card slot. The end of the second return spring 33 away from the card slot is fixedly connected to the splint of the multifunctional clamping and prying plate 31;

[0052] The auxiliary sampling mechanism 4 includes a retaining ring 41, which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the upper end of the multifunctional sampling tube 13. A limiting hole 42 is provided on the retaining ring 41. A sealing cover 43 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the upper end of the multifunctional sampling tube 13. A non-slip limiting plate 44 is fixedly connected to the side of the sealing cover 43 away from the connection with the multifunctional sampling tube 13.

[0053] The nucleic acid detection rod 14 is arranged below the retaining ring 41 near the nucleic acid extraction end. An auxiliary groove is provided on the nucleic acid detection rod 14. The nucleic acid detection rod 14 is arranged at the upper end of the multifunctional sampling tube 13.

[0054] Among them: the rotating connection between the sealing cover 43 and the multifunctional sampling tube 13 is adapted to the size of the card slot opened at the upper end of the preheating dispersion cylinder 12, and the two sides of the bottom of the retaining ring 41 are fixedly connected with limiting blocks to prevent the nucleic acid detection plate 14 from sliding when the nucleic acid is extracted.

[0055] Compared with the prior art, through the implementation of this embodiment, the operator only needs to tilt and align the nucleic acid detection stick 14 with the limiting hole 42, and then press the sealing cover 43 to easily break the handle. This not only avoids the phenomenon of sample falling and contamination caused by the sliding of the nucleic acid detection stick 14 when breaking in the prior art, but also reduces the operator's control over the breaking of the nucleic acid detection stick 14, enhances the operator's stability and anti-falling when breaking the handle of the nucleic acid detection stick 14, and thus reduces the contamination during sample collection.

[0056] Second embodiment

[0057] The nucleic acid extraction device and the extraction method include the following steps:

[0058] Step 1: Sampling of clinical specimens: Use the nucleic acid detection stick 14 to scrape the inside of the pig's mouth and cheeks, and scrape the inside of the nasal cavity. If necessary, such as anal swabs or vaginal swabs, they must also be collected according to the corresponding methods. Then, place the nucleic acid detection stick 14 into the multifunctional sampling tube 13, break off the handle, and mark it clearly;

[0059] Step 2: Extraction of nucleic acid: Extract viral RNA or DNA from the sample. RNA can be reverse transcribed to convert RNA into cDNA to obtain a certain number of DNA or cDNA molecules.

[0060] Step 3: Multiplex quantitative PCR detection and nanopore sequencing library construction. After 1.5 hours of multiplex quantitative PCR detection, a graphical curve display can be obtained on the terminal. After 10 minutes of nanopore sequencing library construction, the ends of these DNA or cDNA molecules are repaired and connected to sequencing adapters to complete the library construction. Then, they are placed in the sequencing chip. The process of molecules entering and passing through the nanopore is monitored in real time by an electrical signal feedback system, and the sequence information of each molecule is recorded.

[0061] Step 4, MinION sequencing: Basic pre-processing of the sequencing data, such as filtering low-quality data, removing sequencing adapter sequences, and splicing and assembling DNA or cDNA sequences, is performed. Finally, the data is compared with a known gene library, and Centrifuge software is used to analyze and identify viral infections and abnormal genes using R language analysis.

[0062] Compared with traditional sequencing technologies, the nanopore sequencing technology in this method has the following characteristics:

[0063] (1) Longer sequencing read length: Nanopore sequencing technology uses the change of electrical signals when bases pass through the nanopore to achieve sequencing. In principle, it can detect all nucleic acid sequences passing through the nanopore. Therefore, there is no limit on the sequencing length. Currently, the longest read length can exceed 2M;

[0064] (2) Real-time sequencing: The sequencing library preparation process is simple, and there is no need to perform PCR amplification on the nucleic acid in the sample. DNA or RNA can be sequenced directly, saving operation time and reducing sequencing costs. The results can be output while sequencing, enabling real-time analysis of sequencing data;

[0065] (3) Direct RNA sequencing: Nanopore sequencing can directly sequence all forms of RNA, avoiding the bias and possible mutations that are caused by reverse transcription of RNA into DNA amplification when sequencing and studying RNA viruses. This feature is extremely attractive in the field of RNA virus detection.

[0066] Everything in the above example works as follows:

[0067] In the initial state: the motor is not started, the multifunctional sampling tube 13 is not placed in the preheating dispersion cylinder 12, and the copper power ring 29 is not energized.

[0068] The following is the working process of the auxiliary sampling mechanism 4 for assisting in the extraction of nucleic acids:

[0069] When collecting nucleic acid samples from imported pigs, a special nucleic acid detection stick 14 and a multifunctional sampling tube 13 are used. The sampling personnel need to wear protective clothing and gloves to ensure aseptic operation. At this time, the operator uses the collection end of the nucleic acid detection stick 14 to scrape the cheeks inside the pig's mouth and scrape inside the nasal cavity. According to needs, such as anal swabs or vaginal swabs, they also need to be collected according to the corresponding methods. Then, the collection end of the nucleic acid detection stick 14 is placed in the inner wall of the multifunctional sampling tube 13 below the retaining ring 41 and the handle is broken off. Figure 7As shown, by placing the nucleic acid detection end of the nucleic acid detection stick 14 at the bottom of the retaining ring 41 and in the limiting hole 42, the limiting hole 42 and the anti-slip limiting plate 44 limit the detection rod of the nucleic acid detection stick 14, so that the detection rod can be stably tilted at the upper end of the multi-functional sampling tube 13. At this time, when the sealing cover 43 is closed, the anti-slip limiting plate 44 presses and engages the auxiliary groove of the nucleic acid detection stick 14. At this time, the operator can easily break the handle of the nucleic acid detection stick 14. At this time, the broken handles are collected uniformly, and the specimen collection end located in the multi-functional sampling tube 13 is removed by the nucleic acid detection stick 14. After breaking, the specimen begins to fall into the bottom of the multifunctional sampling tube 13 to be mixed with the reagent. Compared with the prior art, the present invention only requires the operator to tilt and align the nucleic acid detection stick 14 with the limiting hole 42, and then press the sealing cover 43 to easily break the handle. This not only avoids the phenomenon of specimen falling and contamination caused by the sliding of the nucleic acid detection stick 14 when breaking in the prior art, but also reduces the operator's control over the breaking of the nucleic acid detection stick 14, enhances the operator's stability and anti-falling when breaking the handle of the nucleic acid detection stick 14, and thus reduces the contamination during specimen collection.

[0070] Please refer to the above working process Figures 1 to 7 .

[0071] The following is the working process of the uniform dispersion preheating adjustment mechanism 2 for uniform mixing and heating of nucleic acid with reagents after extraction:

[0072] As described above, after the specimens are uniformly collected, the operator uniformly puts the multifunctional sampling tube 13 into the preheated dispersion cylinder 12. At this time, by gently pressing the multifunctional sampling tube 13, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 Figure 5As shown, at this time, by pressing the nucleic acid detection stick 14, the operator places the multifunctional sampling tube 13 and the card slot opened in the preheating dispersion cylinder 12 on the same motion trajectory. When the multifunctional sampling tube 13 slides into the card slot opened in the preheating dispersion cylinder 12, since one end of the multifunctional clamping pry plate 31 is fixedly connected to the pressing plate, the other end of the multifunctional clamping pry plate 31 is fixedly connected to the splint, and the second return spring 33 is evenly fixedly connected in the card slot, and the second return spring 33 is fixedly connected to the splint of the multifunctional clamping pry plate 31 away from one end of the card slot. When the connection of the sealing cover 43 at the upper end of the multifunctional sampling tube 13 is gradually squeezed to the splint, the squeezing of the splint will drive the second return spring 33 to be compressed, and at this time the bottom of the multifunctional sampling tube 13 In contact with the upper surface of the shock-absorbing block 27, the multifunctional sampling tube 13 can be stably stored in the preheating dispersion cylinder 12 under the elastic action of the second return spring 33 in the clamping plate; by placing the multifunctional sampling tube 13 in the preheating dispersion cylinder 12 for storage, not only can the contamination from external pollution be reduced, but the rotation of the turntable 24 can also drive multiple collected samples to be properly shaken, further ensuring that the cells or tissues in the sample can be effectively lysed, thereby releasing nucleic acids, and the multifunctional clamping plate 31 can stably clamp the surface of the multifunctional sampling tube 13, so that the multifunctional sampling tube 13 can be stably stored in the preheating dispersion cylinder 12 during the transportation process, thereby reducing the problem of the collected samples falling or being lost.

[0073] At this time, in order to speed up the decomposition of nucleic acid, the operator can start the switch button and temperature control switch for controlling the start of the motor on the nucleic acid storage table 1, and set the optimal nucleic acid extraction temperature according to different specimens. At this time, the motor installed on the upper surface of the protective cover 21 starts to rotate under the electrical control of the switch. Because the motor drive shaft passes through the protective cover 21 and is fixedly connected to the middle part of the upper end of the drum 22, the drum 22 will start to rotate in the same direction when the motor rotates. An eccentric hole 23 is provided at the eccentric part of the bottom of the drum 22, and a conical sliding column fixedly connected to the middle part of the turntable 24 is slidably connected in the eccentric hole 23. Moreover, the inclined convex corner block 25 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the isolation cover 11, and the middle part of the turntable 24 is set on the inclined convex corner block 25. Since the inclined convex corner block 25 adopts an inclined conical setting, At this time, the rotation of the rotating cylinder 22 will drive the conical sliding column to drive the turntable 24 to rotate with different slopes on the inclined convex corner block 25. Furthermore, because the preheating dispersion cylinder 12 slides circumferentially in the isolation cover 11, and the bottom of the preheating dispersion cylinder 12 is arranged on the upper surface of the turntable 24, the preheating dispersion cylinder 12 will be driven to slide in the isolation cover 11 by the rotation of the turntable 24 with different amplitudes. At this time, the multifunctional sampling tube 13 engaged in the preheating dispersion cylinder 12 begins to shake the specimen inside the multifunctional sampling tube 13 under the movement of the preheating dispersion cylinder 12. Shaking the inside of the multifunctional sampling tube 13 by the preheating dispersion cylinder 12 can not only reduce the damage to the sample caused by excessive physical force generated during the shaking process, especially for those fragile cells or tissue structures, but also increase the integrity and efficiency of nucleic acid extraction.

[0074] And at this time, with the start of the stable control switch and the threshold control of the temperature sensor device, the copper electrified ring 29 can quickly heat the preheating dispersion tube 12, and the temperature sensor control can control the internal temperature of the preheating dispersion tube 12, and then the heat transfer inside the preheating dispersion tube 12 can gradually heat the inside of the multi-functional sampling tube 13. At this time, the preheating dispersion tube 12 slides in the isolation cover 11, and the copper electrified ring 29 heats it. At the same time, the preheating dispersion tube 12 slides back and forth in the copper electrified ring 29, so that the inside of the preheating dispersion tube 12 can be evenly heated. The copper electrified ring 29 is sleeved on the outer surface of the preheating dispersion tube 12. When the preheating dispersion tube 12 slides back and forth on the isolation cover 11, in order to denature the protein in the sample, the structure of the cell wall and cell membrane is destroyed, making the nucleic acid in the cell more easily released. Released, thereby adopting a moderate heating method for nucleic acid extraction, by passing current into multiple copper power rings 29 connected in series, more accurate and efficient heating is achieved, and a temperature sensor is installed near the multifunctional sampling tube 13, which can monitor and control the internal temperature in real time, thereby ensuring that the heating process is both fast and stable. Compared with traditional heating methods, the design of the present invention not only greatly shortens the heating time, but also makes the temperature control more precise, reducing the risk of nucleic acid degradation caused by temperature fluctuations, and more importantly, through the design of the present invention, we can not only achieve batch, controllable temperature heating treatment, but also make the specimen shake during the heating process, and this shaking is conducive to uniform heating inside the sample, so that the nucleic acid can be released more quickly, thereby further improving the efficiency of nucleic acid extraction.
