Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of cell processing, and in particular relates to an anti-fouling auxiliary device for cell processing. Background Art
[0002] Contamination is a common problem during cell culture, which can lead to abnormal cell growth, unreliable experimental results, and even failure of the entire experiment. Sources of contamination may come from microorganisms in the air, the operator's hands, culture vessels, culture medium, or experimental equipment. Common contamination problems during cell culture include bacterial contamination, fungal contamination, cross-contamination, physical contamination, and so on. Because cells are easily contaminated, aseptic operation is a key aspect of cell culture. Laboratory personnel must use aseptic techniques to manipulate cells, including using a sterile workbench, sterile utensils and culture medium, and wearing appropriate protective equipment.
[0003] The cell culture anti-fouling treatment device is based on the strict requirements of the sterile environment during the cell culture process. When performing cell manipulation in a sterile workbench, the operator needs to remove the lid of the culture dish or culture bottle before handling the cells in the vessel.
[0004] As disclosed in the utility model with authorization announcement number CN213203005U, a vessel rack for storing cell culture dishes comprises a vessel rack shell and a storage plate, wherein the storage plate is provided inside the vessel rack shell, and the storage plate is connected to the left and right side walls of the vessel rack shell by welding, a U-shaped baffle is provided on the top of the storage plate, and an air outlet is provided at the center position of the front side of the U-shaped baffle, and an air intake pipe is provided on the rear side of the vessel rack shell opposite to the air outlet, and the air intake pipe is plugged into the rear side of the vessel rack shell, and an air purification device is provided on the rear side of the air intake pipe, and the air purification device comprises a dust filter, an ultraviolet lamp, and a shell, and a shell is provided on the right side of the air intake pipe, and the shell is provided at the inlet position. A dust filter is provided on the right side of the trachea, and an ultraviolet lamp is provided on the top inner wall of the shell, which greatly reduces the probability of the culture fluid in the cell culture dish being contaminated by air bacteria. The above technical solution has the following problems: when a large number of cells need to be processed at the same time, the lids of multiple culture dishes and culture bottles that have been removed cannot be stored independently. During the operation, the operator passes objects or arms over the lids of the culture dishes and culture bottles, causing the pollution source to fall into the lids. At the same time, it is impossible to independently fix multiple culture bottles. When the pipette is used, it is easy to cause bottle mouth contamination, and it is impossible to perform positive pressure ventilation on the independently stored vessels and vessel accessories, which is easy to cause bacterial contamination of the accessories. For this reason, we propose an anti-fouling auxiliary device for cell processing. Utility Model Content

[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0028] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 The present invention provides a technical solution: an anti-fouling auxiliary device for cell processing, comprising a base 6 and a box arranged in three layers on the base 6, the box comprising an upper box 1, a middle box 4, and a bottom box 5. Specifically, the upper box 1, the middle box 4, and the bottom box 5 are all made of transparent plastic material, which facilitates viewing of their interiors. Multiple sets of independently pull-forward cover storage boxes 2 are arranged in the upper box 1. The cover storage boxes 2 are arranged in corresponding installation openings in the upper box 1. A first support plate 21 and a second support plate 22 are provided on both sides of the cover storage box 2. The height of the second support plate 22 is smaller than that of the first support plate 21.
[0029] When a large number of culture bottles 10 are used, the cover storage box 2 is pulled forward, and the bottle caps 11 are placed in the cover storage box 2 in sequence at an angle, and the back of the bottle caps 11 are fitted with the first support plate 21. Since the first support plate 21 is higher than the second support plate 22, a take-and-place opening is formed, which is convenient for the operator to take and place the bottle caps 11 without touching the inside of the bottle caps 11. The bottle caps 11 of multiple groups of culture bottles 10 can be stored independently, avoiding the situation where multiple groups of bottle caps 11 are placed on the workbench and occupying space, and the bottle caps 11 are easily contaminated during manual operation, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the bottle caps 11.
[0030] As a specific embodiment of this application, please refer to Figure 4, multiple groups of cover storage boxes 7 that can be independently pulled to the right are set in the middle box body 4. The cover storage box 7 is set in the installation port of the middle box body 4. The cover storage box 7 is a box structure with one side open. The open setting is convenient for air circulation.
