Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

The terms "including," "comprising," "having," and variations thereof mean "including but not limited to," unless otherwise specifically emphasized.

[0037] The "multiple" involved in the embodiments of the present application means greater than or equal to two. It should be noted that in the description of the embodiments of the present application, the words "first" and "second" are only used for the purpose of distinguishing the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or order.

"Substantially parallel" can be understood as parallel with a certain error, and similarly, "substantially perpendicular" can be understood as perpendicular with a certain error.

[0039] like Figure 1 As shown, the nucleic acid amplification reaction cartridge provided in the embodiment of the present application is used to be inserted into the interior of a reactor 500 to perform a nucleic acid amplification reaction. The nucleic acid amplification reaction cartridge includes a cartridge body 100 and a sealing cover 200. The sealing cover 200 is used to seal the cartridge body 100 to ensure that the cartridge body 100 can perform a sealed reaction in the reactor 500. A sample loading reservoir 101 for adding a reaction liquid is provided on the top of the cartridge body 100. The sample loading reservoir 101 is connected to a first sample injection channel 103, and the sealing cover 200 can seal the sample loading reservoir 101. In the process of the sealing cover 200 sealing the sample loading reservoir 101, the sealing cover 200 squeezes the air on the top of the sample loading reservoir 101, which can drive the reaction liquid in the sample loading reservoir 101 to flow along the first sample injection channel 103, reducing the dependence on external devices for the reaction liquid driving process, improving the convenience of nucleic acid detection, and improving the efficiency of nucleic acid detection.

[0040] It should be noted that the reactor 500 may be an automatic nucleic acid amplification detector, an integrated molecular diagnostic system, or other instrument capable of performing nucleic acid amplification reaction and detection, and this embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

[0041] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the sample loading pool 101 is connected to the first sample loading channel 103 through the sample loading hole 102, and the flow cross-section of the first sample loading channel 103 is much smaller than the cross-section of the sample loading pool 101. The flow cross-section of the first sample loading channel 103 is extremely thin, so that in the absence of external force, the reaction liquid in the sample loading pool 101 will not flow along the first sample loading channel 103, and the outer surface of the sample loading pool 101 is provided with scale lines 1011. In this way, the scale lines 1011 can directly reflect the volume of the reaction liquid added in the sample loading pool 101, reducing the dependence on external sample loading equipment due to the need to accurately control the amount of reaction liquid added. The scale lines 1011 set in the sample loading pool 101 directly reflect the volume of the added reaction liquid, further improving the convenience of the nucleic acid detection process and further improving the detection efficiency.

[0042] like Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, a first threaded structure 1012 is provided on the outside of the sample loading pool 101; the sealing cover 200 includes a cap 201 and a plunger 202, and a second threaded structure 203 is provided on the inner side of the cap 201, and the second threaded structure 203 is threadedly matched with the first threaded structure 1012, so that the cap 201 can be covered with the sample loading pool 101; the plunger 202 is fixedly connected to the inside of the cap 201 and protrudes from the cap 201, and the plunger 202 is sealed with the sample loading pool 101, so that when the cap 201 is screwed on the sample loading pool 101, the plunger 202 gradually compresses the air at the top of the sample loading pool 101, thereby providing pressure to the reaction liquid in the sample loading pool 101, so that the reaction liquid can move along the first injection channel 103.

[0043] In some embodiments, in order to ensure a sealed connection between the plunger 202 and the sample reservoir 101 , the plunger 202 is made of an elastic material, such as a rubber material or a silicone material, to ensure a sealed connection between the plunger 202 and the sample reservoir 101 .

[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, the sample loading pool 101 includes a connected equal-diameter section and a tapered section. The tapered section gradually tapers from the equal-diameter section to the injection hole, and the equal-diameter section and the tapered section are distributed in sequence along the first direction, so that the sample loading pool 101 forms a funnel structure. Under the pressure of the plunger 202, the reaction liquid can flow more smoothly in the sample loading pool 101, reducing the residual reaction liquid in the sample loading pool 101, thereby improving the accuracy of the reaction process.

[0045] like Figure 2 As shown, the first injection channel 103 is connected to at least two reaction units, and the at least two reaction units are distributed sequentially along the direction of flow of the reaction liquid in the second direction, so that the reaction liquid can perform nucleic acid amplification reaction in the reaction unit to achieve nucleic acid detection.

[0046] It should be noted that the first direction and the second direction may form an acute angle, a right angle, or an obtuse angle. In the embodiment of the present application, in order to ensure the filling effect of the reaction liquid on each reaction unit, the first direction and the second direction are arranged perpendicularly.

[0047] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, there are three reaction units, and the three reaction units are distributed in sequence along the direction of flow of the reaction liquid in the second direction; of course, the reaction units can also be four, five, etc., which can be set according to actual needs, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

[0048] like Figure 2As shown, the reaction unit includes a second injection channel 104, a reaction chamber 105, a first exhaust channel 106 and a first exhaust hole 107; wherein, the second injection channel 104 is connected to the first injection channel 103, and the second injection channel 104 extends along the first direction, and the flow cross-section of the second injection channel 104 is larger than the flow cross-section of the first injection channel 103; the reaction chamber 105 is connected to the second injection channel 104, and the reaction chamber 105 is connected to the first exhaust hole 107 through the first exhaust channel 106, so that the reaction liquid can preferentially fill the second injection channel 104 and the reaction chamber 105.

[0049] like Figure 2 As shown, in the three reaction units distributed along the second direction, the apertures of the first exhaust holes 107 decrease in sequence along the direction of reaction liquid flow, so that the reaction chambers 105 along the direction of reaction liquid flow can be filled in sequence, thereby ensuring that the reaction liquid can be evenly distributed in each reaction chamber 105 in the cartridge body 100. Figure 2 As shown, a waste liquid pool 108 is connected to the end of the first injection channel 103, and the waste liquid pool 108 is connected to a second exhaust hole 110 through a second exhaust channel 109. The aperture of the second exhaust hole 110 is smaller than the aperture of the first exhaust hole 107, so that after the reaction liquid fills all the reaction chambers 105 in sequence, the remaining waste liquid will enter the waste liquid pool 108, so as to ensure that there is enough reaction liquid in the reaction chamber 105 for reaction, thereby further improving the accuracy of nucleic acid detection.

[0050] like Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the cartridge body 100 includes a first surface and a second surface that are relatively distributed; on the first surface, the injection hole 102, the first injection channel 103, the second injection channel 104, the reaction chamber 105, the first exhaust channel 106, and the second exhaust channel 109 are all open structures and are all open to the first surface and form a reaction area;

[0051] The first exhaust holes 107 and the second exhaust holes 110 penetrate and connect the first surface and the second surface. A film pasting area 111 is formed on the second surface. The film pasting area 111 covers the first exhaust holes 107 and the second exhaust holes 110 .

[0052] The reaction area is sealed by the first seal 300, and the first seal 300 can be sealed to the reaction area of ​​the card box body 100 by bonding, heat sealing, hot pressing welding, ultrasonic welding, laser welding, etc., which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0053] In some other embodiments, the first sealing member 300 may be selected to be a sealing member with one-sided adhesive tape, so that the first sealing member 300 can directly seal the reaction area to improve detection efficiency.

[0054] In order to ensure the exhaust operation of the first exhaust hole 107 and the second exhaust hole 110, the second seal 400 is a hydrophobic breathable membrane, and the hydrophobic breathable membrane is sealed in the film area 111. The second seal 400 can be sealed in the film area 111 of the card box body 100 by bonding, heat sealing, hot pressure welding, ultrasonic welding, laser welding, etc., and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this.

[0055] In some other embodiments, the second sealing member 400 may be selected to be a sealing member with one-sided adhesive tape, so that the second sealing member 400 can directly seal the film-applying area 111 , thereby improving detection efficiency.

[0056] It should be noted that the hydrophobic and breathable membrane can be made of hydrophobic and breathable materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene, polyvinylidene fluoride, nanofiber membrane and graphene-based materials to maintain the air pressure balance between the inside of the card box body 100 and the outside world, reduce the leakage of reaction liquid due to the increase in air pressure inside the card box body 100 during nucleic acid amplification, and further ensure the accuracy and biosafety of the detection process.

[0057] like Figure 2 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in order to facilitate the insertion of the cartridge body 100 and the reaction instrument 500, the reaction instrument 500 is provided with a slot 501, and the cartridge body 100 is inserted into the slot 501;

[0058] The cartridge body 100 is provided with first positioning portions 120 at both ends in the second direction. The first positioning portions 120 are used to position the insertion depth of the cartridge body 100 in the reaction instrument 500.

[0059] A second positioning portion 130 is provided at at least one end of the cartridge body 100 in the second direction, the second positioning portion 130 extends along the first direction, and the reactor 500 is provided with at least one positioning groove 502, the second positioning portion 130 is used to position and cooperate with the positioning groove 502, so that in the process of inserting the cartridge body 100 into the interior of the reactor 500, the second positioning portion 130 is used to position and cooperate with the positioning groove 502 so that the cartridge body 100 can be correctly inserted, and the insertion depth of the cartridge body 100 is positioned by the first positioning portion 120 to ensure that the cartridge body 100 can perform a stable reaction in the reactor 500, thereby reducing the phenomenon of improper insertion between the cartridge body 100 and the reactor 500 and improving the accuracy of detection.

[0060] To ensure detection, at least one of the reactor 500 or the first seal 300 is entirely or partially made of a light-transmitting material, so that during the detection process, the fluorescence can pass through the light-transmitting material to achieve signal collection. In some embodiments, the light-transmitting material can be polycarbonate, polymethyl methacrylate, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polystyrene, polyethylene, polyamide, polyvinyl chloride, etc., which is not limited in this embodiment of the present application.

[0061] During use of the nucleic acid amplification reaction cartridge provided in the embodiment of the present application, the first sealing member 300 is firstly sealed with the reaction area of ​​the cartridge body 100, and the second sealing member 400 is sealed with the film-applying area 111; then, the reaction liquid is added to the sample loading reservoir 101, and the volume of the added reaction liquid is observed through the scale line 1011; then, the sealing cover 200 is screwed onto the sample loading reservoir 101, and under the pressure of the plunger 202, the reaction liquid flows along the first injection channel 103, and the reaction liquid fills the reaction chamber 105 in sequence along the flow direction, and the remaining waste liquid enters the waste liquid reservoir 108 along the first injection channel 103; then, the sealed cartridge body 100 is inserted into the interior of the reactor 500 along the card slot 501 to perform nucleic acid amplification reaction and detection, thereby improving the convenience of nucleic acid detection and improving the efficiency of nucleic acid detection.

[0062] In another use process of the nucleic acid amplification reaction cartridge provided in an embodiment of the present application, the enzymes, primers, probes and other biological reagents required for the nucleic acid amplification reaction are first pre-placed in the reaction chamber 105; then the first seal 300 is used to seal the reaction area of ​​the cartridge body 100, and the second seal 400 is used to seal the film area 111; then the sample liquid is added to the sample loading reservoir 101, and then the sealing cover 200 is screwed onto the sample loading reservoir 101. Under the pressure of the plunger 202, the sample liquid flows along the first injection channel 103 and fills the reaction chamber 105 in the flow direction, dissolving the pre-placed biological reagents in the reaction chamber 105, simplifying the reaction liquid configuration process and further improving the portability of the operation; then the sealed cartridge body 100 is inserted into the interior of the reactor 500 along the card slot 501 to perform the nucleic acid amplification reaction and detection.
