Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of nucleic acid detection, in particular to a vacuum-sealed pathogen nucleic acid detection device. Background Art

[0002] Nucleic acid testing is to find out whether the patient's respiratory specimens, blood or feces contain nucleic acids of foreign invading viruses to determine whether the patient is infected with the virus. After obtaining the patient's sample, the test must be carried out as soon as possible. If the sample cannot be tested immediately and needs to be transported, it should be packaged at low temperature in accordance with the requirements of the instructions and sent to a special testing agency for testing. During the test, a reagent tube containing reagents will be used to extract the nucleic acid in the sample.

[0003] CN217324090U discloses a vacuum-sealed pathogen nucleic acid detection cup, comprising a detection device and a detection cup. When in use, a reaction liquid tank is placed in a sampling cabin, the reaction cabin is in a vacuum environment, and the sampling cabin and the reaction cabin are in an isolated state. After sampling and collecting samples, the cap is covered, and the reaction cabin is pushed in the direction of the sampling cabin, so that a through pipe establishes a channel between the sampling cabin and the reaction cabin, and the sample is sucked into the reaction cabin through the negative pressure effect of the reaction cabin. After the sample flows into the reaction cabin, the reaction cabin is reset, and the reaction cabin and the sampling cabin are isolated again. Finally, the infection situation is judged according to the reaction result. The whole process is closed operation to prevent the detection sample from volatilizing into the air, so as to achieve absolute isolation from the air and avoid environmental pollution. The operation is simple and convenient, which provides convenience for the staff and ensures that the detection results are more accurate and effective.

[0004] Although the device can achieve a closed reaction between the reaction solution and the nucleic acid sample, the structure is relatively complex. In actual nucleic acid testing, disposable reagent tubes are generally used to store the reaction solution and samples. The structure of the test cup is relatively complex and is not suitable for one-time use. The cost is too high. Repeated use requires additional disinfection, which will also increase costs.

[0005] In actual sampling, generally a certain number of samples are taken before the entire tray of reagent tubes is placed in a low-temperature storage box for storage. This process takes a certain amount of time. If the ambient temperature is high, the reagent tubes may partially deteriorate, affecting the detection accuracy. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model.

[0042] The refrigerator 3 is used to store the test samples, which can achieve the effect of refrigeration and insulation, and is suitable for collecting nucleic acid samples outside for a long time. The drawer-pull-out storage box 2 is used to store the reagent tube 1. After a group of nucleic acid samples are placed, it can be pushed into a grid to keep the nucleic acid samples refrigerated in time. At the same time, the outer part of the storage box 2 can continue to hold the reagent tube 1, which is easy to use. At the same time, the reagent tube 1 itself adopts an upper and lower isolation structure. After the swab is inserted into the lower layer of the valve 12 and stirred and then pulled out, the lower layer reaction liquid can maintain a vacuum-sealed state and does not contact with the air, which can prevent the nucleic acid sample from deteriorating. The upper space can also store the broken swab normally, and the reaction liquid after the reaction can be poured out separately from the lower end, which ensures the detection quality.

[0044] A plurality of top blocks 31 are arranged at the top of the refrigerator 3 corresponding to the plurality of storage cavities of the storage box 2. The top blocks 31 can be inserted between four positioning strips 21 of the same group to push out the reagent tube 1, and a chamfer is arranged on the inner side of the bottom of the positioning strip 21. An iron sheet 37 adapted to the position of the magnetic sheet 22 is arranged in the refrigerator 3.

[0045] By providing a positioning bar 21 in the storage box 2 to support and position the reagent tube 1, the reagent tube 1 can be kept suspended in the air, and by utilizing the top block 31 on the top of the refrigerator 3, the entire row of reagent tubes 1 can be pushed out together, thereby facilitating the extraction of the reagent tube 1, thus avoiding the problem of the reagent tube 1 being deeply hidden in the storage box 2 and being inconvenient to remove, and the operation is labor-saving and convenient.

The cooling fan 36 has a built-in power supply and a switch, and an iron sheet 37 is adhered to the surface of the heat preservation lining 34.

[0048] By setting a semiconductor refrigeration plate 35 at the bottom, the refrigerator 3 can be cooled, and the thermal insulation lining 34 can achieve a better thermal insulation effect, ensuring that the refrigerator 3 has a long-term refrigeration effect, avoiding the deterioration of the sample, and indirectly ensuring the detection accuracy.

[0050] When in use, start the cooling fan 36 to dissipate heat from the semiconductor refrigeration plate 35, so that the semiconductor refrigeration plate 35 is cooled, pull out a row of storage boxes 2, then take out the reagent tube 1 and open the sealing plug 13, insert the sampled swab into the reagent tube 1, and insert it under the valve 12 for stirring, then withdraw the swab, so that the valve 12 can be automatically restored to its original state, and then break the swab at the tube mouth, and keep the broken part with the cotton ball in the reagent tube 1, and then plug the sealing plug 13 tightly.

[0051] Place the reagent tube 1 into the storage cavity of the storage box 2 close to the refrigerator 3, and then push the storage box 2 inward one grid to move the reagent tube 1 into the refrigerator 3 for storage. Repeat the operation until the storage box 2 is fully pushed in, then pull out the next row of storage boxes 2, until all storage boxes 2 are full of reagent tubes 1, and then the refrigerator 3 can be lifted away as a whole.

[0052] When the reagent tube 1 needs to be taken out, a row of storage boxes 2 is completely pulled out and placed on the top of the refrigerator 3, and the top block 31 is pressed down so that the top block 31 lifts the reagent tube 1 for a while, so that the top of the reagent tube 1 is exposed from the storage box 2, and the reagent tube 1 can be easily taken out. After taking it out, the sealing cover 14 at the bottom can be unscrewed to pour out the reaction liquid in the lower layer.

[0053] It should be noted that, in this article, relational terms such as first and second, etc. are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variants thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device.
