Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of microbial detection, in particular to an integrated experimental machine box for propidium azidobromide dye photocrosslinking reaction. Background Art

[0002] Propidium Monoazide (PMA) is an important fluorescent marker widely used in environmental microbiology, food safety monitoring, virus detection and microbial activity analysis. It is a photoactive dye that cannot penetrate the membrane of living cells and can selectively label and modify DNA in damaged cell membranes and exposed DNA. When exposed to strong visible light (optimal wavelength is 464nm), it forms a stable covalent bond with DNA, causing permanent modification of DNA and inhibiting its PCR amplification. Using this characteristic of propidium monoazide, researchers can effectively distinguish and screen microbial cells with complete cell structures, which is of great significance for revealing the structure and function of microbial communities, evaluating environmental health status and developing new biological products.

[0003] However, the existing technology lacks a standardized and efficient integrated experimental chassis for the photocrosslinking reaction of propidium bromide dye, resulting in the lack of systematicity and stability in sample processing and activation methods. For example, propidium bromide dye is activated prematurely under unexpected circumstances; when halogen lamps are used as light sources, the light intensity and the large amount of heat generated are difficult to control; during the dark reaction and light activation process, the sample and propidium bromide dye are not evenly mixed without damaging the cells. These factors will reduce the accuracy of the experimental data. Therefore, it is crucial to develop an efficient integrated experimental chassis for the photocrosslinking reaction of propidium bromide dye, which aims to provide stable lighting and temperature conditions to ensure sufficient mixing of samples in the reaction, while being easy to operate and low in maintenance costs, thereby improving experimental efficiency and the accuracy of results, and promoting further development of microbiology research and related application fields.
