Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of microfluidic technology, and particularly to a high-throughput microfluidic detection chip for monkeypox virus and its applications. Background Art

[0002] Monkeypox virus is a zoonotic virus that belongs to the genus Orthopoxvirus, along with smallpox and vaccinia virus, and is generally less severe than smallpox. Mature monkeypox virus is oval-shaped and can be cultured and grown in African green monkey kidney cells, causing cytopathic effects. Monkeypox occurs in monkeys and can also infect other animals, and occasionally infect humans. It presents similarly to smallpox but with a milder condition. Monkeypox virus can be transmitted from animals to humans through direct close contact and can also spread from person to person. The main routes of transmission include blood and body fluids. However, the infectivity of monkeypox is much lower than that of smallpox virus. Poxviruses exist in two forms: mature virus particles and lipid membranes.

[0003] There are several monkeypox antigen detection proteins as follows: A29L: an envelope protein on the surface of mature virus within cells. A35R: an envelope component of intracellular enveloped virus particles (IEV) and extracellular enveloped virus particles (EEV). B6R: located on the membrane of extracellular enveloped virus particles (EEV) and homologous to the vaccinia virus complement control protein B5. M1R: homologous to the vaccinia virus L1 protein, a transmembrane protein found on the surface of mature IMV particles. E8L: an important protein for virus invasion of host cells, which acts as a cell surface binding protein of MV and binds to chondroitin sulfate on the cell surface during the process of virus invasion of the host to complete replication, providing attachment of virus particles to target cells. H3L: a glycosyltransferase 324 AA long, located on the virus envelope, and plays a key role in the attachment to host cells and subsequent entry of poxviruses. The replication cycle of the virus is as Figure 1 shown Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the virus replication cycle.

[0076] The various fluorescent microsphere-labeled monkeypox antibodies are mixed in an equal volume ratio to obtain a mixed labeled antibody, and the mixed labeled antibody is fixed on a pre-prepared spotting pad with a spotter to obtain the first spotting pad.

[0080] Rotate the reaction, centrifuge, discard the supernatant, and retain the precipitate;

[0081] Add TBST buffer, centrifuge, and retain the precipitate to obtain the fluorescent microsphere-labeled monkeypox antibody.

[0082] In this embodiment, 100 μg of monkeypox antibody is added to 100 μL of fluorescent microspheres with a solid content of 1%. The labeling buffer includes MES. The rotation reaction is to place the centrifuge tube on a rotary mixer and rotate for 120 min; the centrifugation conditions are 12,000 rpm for 30 min. The final concentration of the monkeypox antibody labeled with fluorescent microspheres is 1 mg / ml. The TBST buffer, that is, TBS with Tween-20, is an isotonic buffered salt solution, which consists of Tris-HCl to form a stable pH buffer system, NaCl to provide isotonic conditions, and Tween-20 as a detergent to increase the elution ability of the buffer.

[0083] As an option of the present application, the second spotting pad is prepared through the following steps:

[0084] Each monkeypox antibody is coated with magnetic beads respectively to obtain a variety of monkeypox antibodies coated with magnetic beads, wherein the monkeypox antibodies include the second A35R antibody, the second A29L antibody, the second MIR antibody, and the second B6R antibody;

[0085] The various monkeypox antibodies coated with magnetic beads are respectively spotted at designated positions on a pre-prepared spotting pad using a spotter to obtain the second spotting pad.

[0086] In this embodiment, first use a spotter to spot the monkeypox antibody coated with magnetic beads at a fixed position and dry it. The drying temperature is 37 °C and the drying time is 18 h, so as to facilitate the fixation of the monkeypox antibody coated with magnetic beads by the magnetic field of the electromagnetic coil during the reaction.

[0087] As an option of the present application, the step of respectively coating each monkeypox antibody with magnetic beads to obtain a variety of monkeypox antibodies coated with magnetic beads includes:

[0088] Take magnetic beads with a solid content of 1% in the labeling buffer and vortex to mix evenly;

The labeling buffer includes MES; the rotation reaction is to place the centrifuge tube on a rotary mixer and rotate for 120 min; the final concentration of the monkeypox antibody coated with magnetic beads is 2 mg / ml.

[0093] This application provides a high-throughput microfluidic detection chip for monkeypox virus. This high-throughput microfluidic detection chip for monkeypox virus uses a method that combines microfluidic technology and fluorescence labeling technology to detect monkeypox virus in a sample. The concentration of monkeypox virus is positively correlated with the relative luminescence intensity. At the same time, four proteins of monkeypox virus are detected, effectively reducing the risk of missed detection.

[0094] This application also provides the above-mentioned high-throughput microfluidic detection chip for monkeypox virus in the application of detecting monkeypox virus for non-diagnostic purposes, such as Figure 4 shown Figure 4 is a schematic flow chart of an embodiment of the application of the high-throughput microfluidic detection chip for monkeypox virus according to this application in detecting monkeypox virus for non-diagnostic purposes; specifically includes the following steps:

[0095] S1: Add the sample to be tested into the chip through the sample addition port, and pierce the sealing film of the cleaning chamber;

[0096] S2: Turn on the first gear of the controllable air pressure pump, and drive the sample to be tested to flow through the first spotting pad multiple times through the controllable air pressure pump;

[0097] S3: Drive the sample to be tested to flow through the second spotting pad multiple times through the controllable air pressure pump;

[0098] S4: Turn on the second gear of the above-mentioned controllable air pressure pump, and drive the cleaning liquid in the cleaning chamber to wash the second spotting pad through the controllable air pressure pump, wherein the air pressure of the second gear is higher than that of the first gear;

[0099] S5: Read the experimental results.

[0100] In this embodiment, the sample to be tested is serum or a sample treated with sample diluent. The amount of the sample to be tested added is 30 μL;

[0101] As an option of this application, the sample to be tested includes serum.

[0102] such as Figure 5 shown Figure 5 is an operation schematic diagram of another embodiment of the application of the high-throughput microfluidic detection chip for monkeypox virus according to this application in detecting monkeypox virus for non-diagnostic purposes; during the reaction, the magnetic field generated by the electromagnetic coil can fix the magnetic beads, so the monkeypox antibody coated on the magnetic beads can be fixed during the reaction. This application uses a magnetic field to fix the magnetic beads, and the antibody is fixed stably without displacement and loss, further increasing the stability of the test.

[0103] This application controls the light intensity for the CCD camera to capture the antibody-coated position (i.e., the light intensity for fixing the position of the monkeypox antibody coated on magnetic beads) through a PLC control system. A programmable logic controller (PLC) uses a type of programmable memory to store programs internally, execute user-oriented instructions such as logical operations, sequential control, timing, counting, and arithmetic operations, and controls various types of machinery or production processes through digital or analog input / output.

[0104] This application combines microfluidic technology with fluorescence immunoassay technology to detect monkeypox virus in a test sample. Specifically, it uses high-throughput multi-protein dot matrix microfluidics to detect the proteins of monkeypox virus. The detection operation is simple, the detection time is short, it is fast, accurate, has high detection sensitivity and good specificity, and is stable within and between batches. The concentration of monkeypox virus is positively correlated with the relative luminescence intensity.

[0105] This application can precisely control the liquid flow through microfluidics, reduce reagent errors, and increase reagent sensitivity and reproducibility.

[0106] The above scheme is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation examples, but these examples are by no means a limitation to this application. The preferred implementation examples of this application are described in detail as follows:

[0107] Example 1

[0108] Labeling monkeypox antibodies with fluorescent microspheres:

[0109] Label four monkeypox antibodies with fluorescent microspheres: the first A35R antibody, the first A29L antibody, the first MIR antibody, and the first B6R antibody, spray them on the microsphere labeling site, and dry. Taking 100 μL of fluorescent microspheres (1% solid content) as an example:

[0110] 1) Take four clean 2 mL centrifuge tubes, and use a pipette to respectively pipette and add 1 mL of labeling buffer; vortex and mix well. Take 100 μL of fluorescent microspheres with a solid content of 1% into the labeling buffer, and vortex and mix well again. Among them, the labeling buffer includes MES.

[0111] 2) Add 100 μg of the corresponding type of monkeypox antibody to each of the above centrifuge tubes, tighten the lids, and slowly invert and mix 10 - 20 times;

[0112] 3) Add 10 μL of 10 mg / ml EDC, tighten the lid, and slowly invert and mix 10 - 20 times;

[0118] 9) Mix the four kinds of monkey pox antibodies labeled with fluorescent microspheres in a volume ratio of 1:1:1:1 to obtain a mixed solution;

[0119] 10) Take 5 μL of the mixed solution, use a spotter to spot the microspheres at the corresponding position, and dry at 37°C for 18 h.

[0120] Example 2

[0121] Magnetic beads coated with monkey pox antibody:

[0122] Use thermo scientific Dynabeads TM Coat each kind of magnetic bead with the monkey pox antibody. First, use a spotter to spot the magnetic beads coated with the monkey pox antibody at the fixed position on the second spotting pad, and dry it to facilitate the fixation of the magnetic beads coated with the monkey pox antibody by the electromagnetic coil magnetic field during the reaction.

[0123] Among them, the second spotting pad includes a first region and a second region. The magnetic beads coated with the monkey pox antibody are arranged in the first region, and the thickness of the second spotting pad corresponding to the first region is less than the thickness of the second spotting pad corresponding to the second region. Therefore, the position of the second spotting pad corresponding to the magnetic beads in this application is thinner, which is convenient for the fixation of the magnetic beads coated with the monkey pox antibody by the magnetic field.

[0124] Taking 100 μL of magnetic beads (1% solid content) as an example

[0125] 1) Take four clean 2 mL centrifuge tubes, and use a pipette to add 1 mL of labeling buffer to each tube respectively; vortex and mix well. Take 100 μL of magnetic beads with a solid content of 1% into the labeling buffer, and vortex and mix well again. Among them, the labeling buffer includes MES;

[0126] 2) Add 10 μg of the corresponding kind of monkey pox antibody to each centrifuge tube. The added monkey pox antibodies include: the second A35R antibody, the second A29L antibody, the second MIR antibody, and the second B6R antibody. Tighten the lid and slowly invert and mix 10 - 20 times;

[0127] 3) Add 5 μL of 10 mg / ml EDC to each centrifuge tube, tighten the lid, and gently invert the tube 10 - 20 times up and down slowly;

[0128] 4) After mixing, place the centrifuge tube on a rotary mixer and rotate for a reaction for 120 min;

[0129] 5) After the reaction is completed, perform magnetic separation on a magnetic stand, and slowly aspirate the supernatant using a pipette, leaving the precipitate;

[0130] 6) Add 1 ml of TBST buffer, mix well, perform magnetic separation on a magnetic stand, and slowly aspirate the supernatant using a pipette, leaving the precipitate

[0131] 7) Repeat step 6);

[0132] 8) Finally, add 0.5 mL of TBST, mix well to obtain the magnetic beads coated with monkeypox antibodies, and the final concentration of the magnetic beads coated with monkeypox antibodies is 2 mg / ml;

[0133] 9) Spot 2 μL of the magnetic beads at the corresponding position using a spotter, and dry at 37 °C for 18 h. The specific spotting positions are as Figure 3 shown.

[0134] Example 3

[0135] The specific application steps of the above high-throughput monkeypox virus microfluidic detection chip:

[0136] 1) Add 30 μL of serum or the sample treated with sample diluent to the sample inlet, and cover it with a soft rubber cap.

[0137] 2) Pierce the seal of the cleaning solution, turn on the air pump at gear 1, and drive the liquid to flow.

[0138] 3) When the sample comes into contact with the position of the fluorescent microspheres, control the sample to flow through the fluorescent position repeatedly, and the reaction time is 120 s.

[0139] 4) Control the air pump to make the sample flow through the position of the magnetic beads repeatedly, and the reaction time is 120 s.

[0140] 5) Turn on the air pump at gear 2 to rinse the position of the magnetic beads with the cleaning solution. The rinsed solution flows into the waste liquid tank.

[0141] 6) Read and interpret the results: The excitation light source emits light of the excitation wavelength, the CCD takes a photo and collects the light intensity of the emission wavelength at the position of the magnetic beads coated with monkeypox antibodies set on the second spotting pad. The light intensity is converted into a digital signal and the result is read. When the light intensity at the coated position exceeds the threshold, it is judged as positive.

[0142] This application also provides the experimental data of the above high-throughput monkeypox virus microfluidic detection chip as follows:

[0143]

[0144]

[0145] When testing monkeypox virus samples, the light intensity at at least one position of the coated protein magnetic beads is much higher than that of the negative serum samples, indicating that this test method can not only detect whether a person is infected with the monkeypox virus, but also classify different mutant strains, which has guiding significance for laboratory experiments and scientific and technological progress.
