Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of biological experiment molds, in particular to a microinjection fish egg fixing mold. Background Art
[0002] There are many kinds of cultured fish in China. Cultivating high-quality aquatic product varieties is one of the core tasks of the industrial development. However, the traditional artificial selection has a long cycle, low efficiency and high cost. As one of the most cutting-edge technologies in the current field of life science, gene editing technology shows broad application prospects in many fields such as biological gene function research, animal and plant disease prevention and control, and variety improvement. Microinjection is the most commonly used means for delivering gene editing substances in animals.
[0003] For most fish, at room temperature, its incubation period is generally 2 - 7 days, and the fertilized egg generally undergoes cell division about 1 hour after fertilization. In order to improve the efficiency of gene editing, microinjection is generally performed at the 1-cell stage before cell division. Therefore, the window period for microinjection is very short, and how to improve the injection efficiency is very crucial.
[0004] Currently, zebrafish is the most commonly used fish in gene editing technology. Since its fertilized eggs absorb water and expand, and the egg membrane is relatively thin and easy to inject, the commonly used egg fixing tool is an agarose gel groove, which is made by a simple cuboid mold. Its characteristics are simple and convenient. However, due to the non-uniform size of fish eggs and the continuous expansion of fertilized eggs by absorbing water, a cuboid groove of one size cannot effectively fix all types of fish eggs, and it cannot effectively fix fish eggs with high hardness and strong elasticity. In addition, as the fish eggs develop, the egg membrane will gradually harden. If the fish eggs cannot be effectively fixed, microinjection cannot be successfully completed. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the cuboid mold in the prior art. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a microinjection fish egg fixing mold to solve the problems mentioned in the above background art.
[0006] To solve the above problems, the technical solutions adopted by the utility model are as follows:
[0007] A microinjection fish egg fixing mold includes
[0008] a bottom plate;
[0009] comb-shaped tooth rods, and a plurality of the comb-shaped tooth rods are symmetrically and fixedly arranged on the upper wall of the bottom plate;
[0010] an identification mark, and the identification mark is fixedly arranged on the bottom plate.
[0011] Preferably, the comb-shaped tooth bar is composed of a first structure body and a second structure body. The first structure body is formed by obliquely truncating a cuboid at the distal end, and the second structure body is formed by obliquely truncating a triangular prism at the distal end. Moreover, the truncated sections of the first structure body and the second structure body form continuous sections with the same inclination angle.
[0012] Preferably, a plurality of second structure bodies are fixedly arranged on one side wall of the first structure body.
[0013] Preferably, the identification mark is in the shape of a cross.
[0014] Preferably, the identification mark is in the shape of a straight line.
[0015] Preferably, two through holes are symmetrically formed in the upper wall of the bottom plate.
[0016] Preferably, the bottom plate, the comb-shaped tooth bar, and the identification mark are all made of lightweight and high-temperature-resistant materials.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] The utility model is applicable to the preparation of fish egg fixing tools using agarose gel. Since the formed groove is in an inclined triangular pyramid structure, the fertilized eggs are subjected to the acting forces (Fa, Fb, Fc) of three surfaces a, b, and c, plus the gravity G, and their resultant force is zero. During microinjection, when the injection needle forms a certain angle with the egg, the applied force (Fi) will not change the resultant force on the fertilized eggs. In addition, the three force-bearing surfaces greatly increase the friction force, and as the injection force Fi increases, Fa, Fb, and Fc will also increase accordingly, making the fertilized eggs not move and not slip easily during microinjection, especially suitable for fish eggs with high hardness, strong elasticity, and difficult injection. And due to the special design of the triangular pyramid, it can be applicable to fertilized eggs of different sizes. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0024] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0025] Embodiment 1:
[0026] Please refer to Figures 1-4 As shown, the present invention is a microscopic injection fish egg fixing mold, including a bottom plate 1;
[0027] Comb-shaped tooth rods, a plurality of comb-shaped tooth rods are symmetrically and fixedly arranged on the upper wall of the bottom plate 1;
[0028] Identification mark 3, the identification mark 3 is fixedly arranged on the bottom plate 1.
[0029] It can be seen from Figures 1-3 that the comb-shaped tooth rod is composed of a first structure body 4 and a second structure body 5. The first structure body 4 is formed by making an oblique cut at the distal end of a cuboid, and the second structure body 5 is formed by making an oblique cut at the distal end of a triangular prism, and the cuts of the first structure body 4 and the second structure body 5 form a continuous cross-section with the same inclination angle.
[0030] A plurality of second structure bodies 5 are fixedly arranged on one side wall of the first structure body 4.
[0031] The identification mark 3 is in a cross shape.
[0032] The identification mark 3 is in a linear shape.
[0033] The bottom plate 1, the comb-shaped tooth rod and the identification mark 3 are all made of a light and high-temperature resistant material;
[0034] Specifically, the material of this mold is preferably a material such as plastic or nylon that is lighter and not easily deformed at high temperatures. During the manufacturing process, 3D printing or corresponding molds can be used for preparation.
[0035] As can be seen from the above, the mold of the present invention is mainly used to prepare an agarose gel model in a culture dish of 6 cm, 10 cm or other sizes. Among them, the specific preparation method of the agarose gel model is as follows:
[0036] First, prepare a 1.5% agarose solution, pour the boiled and mixed agarose solution into the culture dish, then invert the mold of the present invention on the surface of the agarose solution. After the agarose solution solidifies, take out this mold to obtain a fish egg fixing tool for microscopic injection.
[0037] When performing microinjection on fish eggs, pour a liquid such as water or embryo culture medium into a petri dish and completely immerse the agarose gel. Then place the fertilized fish eggs in the groove. For sinking eggs, they will fall into the groove along the slope by themselves and be fixed.
[0038] See Figure 4 As can be seen, since the formed groove has an inclined triangular pyramid structure, the fertilized eggs are subjected to the acting forces (Fa, Fb, Fc) of the three surfaces a, b, and c. Coupled with the gravity G, the resultant force is zero. During microinjection, the injection needle forms a certain angle with the egg, and the force applied (Fi) will not change the resultant force received by the fertilized eggs. In addition, the three force-receiving surfaces greatly increase the friction force. Moreover, as the injection force Fi increases, Fa, Fb, and Fc will also increase accordingly, making the fertilized eggs not move and not easily slip during microinjection. It is especially suitable for fish eggs with high hardness, strong elasticity, and difficult injection. And due to the special design of the triangular pyramid, it can be applied to fertilized eggs of different sizes.

[0043] Reference Figure 1 And Figure 2 As shown, two through holes 2 are symmetrically formed on the upper wall of the bottom plate 1.
[0044] As can be seen from the above, in Example One, after the agarose solution solidifies, the staff can fix the mold of the present invention through the through holes 2 with the help of tools such as tweezers, and then it is convenient to further take out this mold. The structural design is user-friendly.
