Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of nucleic acid extraction, and more specifically, to a rapid nucleic acid extraction device. Background Art

[0002] Nucleic acid is the carrier of genetic information, the most important bioinformatics molecule, and the main object of molecular biology research. With the rapid development of molecular biology technology, the research and analysis of nucleic acid is being promoted and applied in the fields of clinical diagnosis, environmental testing, food safety testing, etc., and plays a great role. Since the magnetic bead method for extracting nucleic acid is simple to operate and takes a short time; it does not use toxic reagents such as benzene and chloroform in traditional methods, and is safe and non-toxic, it fully conforms to the modern environmental protection concept; the specific binding with nucleic acid makes the extracted nucleic acid high in purity and concentration, so the magnetic bead method for extracting nucleic acid is increasingly valued. The extraction steps of nucleic acid by magnetic bead method mainly include: (1) lysis; (2) binding; (3) washing; (4) elution; cell or tissue samples are lysed in the lysis solution, and the nucleic acid molecules released from the sample are specifically adsorbed to the surface of the magnetic particles, while impurities such as proteins are not adsorbed and remain in the solution. At this time, the surface-modified superparamagnetic silica nanoparticles "specifically bind" to the nucleic acid to form a "nucleic acid-magnetic bead complex"; then, under the action of an external magnetic field, the complex is separated. Finally, the non-specifically adsorbed impurities are washed away with elution solution, and after desalting and purification, the nucleic acid material to be extracted is obtained.

[0003] Some existing nucleic acid extraction devices are unable to fix the extraction devices when extracting some liquids. During operation, the staff may accidentally touch the nucleic acid extraction devices, causing liquid leakage and possible cross contamination.

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the present application provides a rapid nucleic acid extraction device. Utility Model Content

When both positioning rods are fixed, the position of the push-pull plate can be fixed. This structure can prevent the staff from accidentally touching the push-pull plate and causing liquid leakage, thereby improving the safety after liquid extraction.

[0036] See also Figure 6 The magnetic bead method nucleic acid extraction device comprises a single-row tube 12, a magnetic rod 127, and a transparent magnetic sleeve 129; the single-row tube 12 is provided with a lysis chamber 126 and a plurality of functional chambers, the functional chambers comprising a high-salt washing chamber 124, a low-salt washing chamber 122, an elution chamber 121, and a spare chamber 125; the nucleic acid extraction device is made of colorless and transparent materials for easy observation during operation, and is simple in design, lightweight, and easy to use;

[0037] The method of using the magnetic rod method in nucleic acid extraction and purification is as follows:

[0038] Mixing: The magnetic beads are pre-stored in the low-salt washing solution in the low-salt washing solution chamber 122, and the magnetic beads are placed in the chamber and mixed before use.

[0039] Lysis: Put the magnetic rod 127 into the transparent magnetic sleeve 129, absorb the magnetic beads in the low-salt washing liquid chamber 122 and inject them into the lysis chamber 126, and vibrate up and down to mix the sample to be tested, lysis solution and magnetic beads in the lysis chamber 126 to fully lyse.

[0043] pass Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The structure in the middle facilitates the extraction of liquid in the single-row connecting tube 12, thereby improving the extraction efficiency of the liquid.

[0044] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: when extracting liquid, the user holds the push-pull plate 6 to drive the push-pull rod 4 and the sealing rubber plug 5 set at the bottom to move, and the push-pull plate 6 drives the two positioning rods 7 to move at the same time, and the needle tube 2 extracts liquid. The setting of the scale line 3 facilitates the user to observe the volume of the extracted liquid; in order to prevent the staff from accidentally touching the push-pull plate 6 after the liquid is extracted and causing the liquid to leak, the two positioning components 11 can be set to avoid such a phenomenon;

[0045] When the liquid extraction is finished, the user first operates a positioning component 11, and the position of the hand-held pull ring 119 drives the connecting plate 118 to be pulled outward, and the connecting plate 118 drives the positioning block 117 to move through the connecting rod 116. At this time, the spring 1110 is in an elongated state. When the positioning block 117 is completely located inside the groove 115, the user rotates the connecting tube 111 until the positioning block 117 corresponds to the positioning groove 8 at a suitable position on the outer side of the positioning rod 7. The user releases the pull ring 119. At this time, the positioning block 117 is driven to rebound forward and return to its original position through the setting of the spring 1110. When the positioning block 117 is located in the positioning groove 8 at a suitable position, the positioning rod 7 can be fixed. At this time, another positioning component 11 is operated in the same step as above. When both positioning rods 7 are fixed, the position of the push-pull plate 6 can be fixed.

[0046] When it is necessary to press the push-pull plate 6 later, the user first operates a positioning component 11, holds the pull ring 119 and pulls it outward. When the positioning block 117 is completely located inside the groove 115, the user rotates the connecting tube 111 to disengage the positioning block 117 from the position of the positioning groove 8. The operation method of the two positioning components 11 is the same. When the two positioning blocks 117 are disengaged from the position of the positioning groove 8, the push-pull plate 6 can be moved.

[0047] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
