Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of nucleic acid detection technology, and in particular to a large-volume extraction plate for cell sorting. Background Technology

[0002] In cell sorting experiments, the enrichment of target cells mainly involves various techniques such as density gradient centrifugation, magnetic activation cell sorting, fluorescence activation cell sorting, and microfluidics. Among these, magnetic activation cell sorting is the simplest, most time-saving, and most affordable method, and it can also separate multiple samples simultaneously.

[0003] However, current techniques mostly involve manual operation by laboratory personnel. When sorting large volumes of blood samples for cell separation, the processing becomes time-consuming and labor-intensive. Currently, there is an extraction instrument, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it can accommodate one to six extraction plates at a time, enabling automated and rapid cell sorting experiments via the extraction instrument. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a large-volume extraction plate compatible with this extraction instrument. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a large-volume extraction plate for cell sorting, which can be adapted to an extraction instrument to achieve automated cell sorting and solve the problem of time-consuming and laborious blood sample processing during manual cell sorting experiments.

[0005] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] A large-volume extraction plate for cell sorting includes seven wells, numbered one to seven from one end. Well one is a magnetic rod well, well two is a sample loading well, well three is a magnetic bead solution well, wells four to six are washing solution wells, and well seven is an elution solution well.

[0007] Preferably, the overall dimensions of the large-volume extraction plate are: 11cm in length, 1.2cm in width, and 6cm in height.

[0008] Preferably, the interval between two adjacent holes is 0.1 cm; the depth of the magnetic rod sleeve hole, sample loading hole, magnetic bead liquid hole and elution liquid hole is 4.5 cm; the depth of the washing liquid hole is 5.5 cm; the diameter of the magnetic rod sleeve hole is 1.2 cm; the diameter of the sample loading hole is 2.5 cm; and the diameters of the magnetic bead liquid hole, washing liquid hole and elution liquid hole are all 1.5 cm.

[0009] This invention is compatible with an extraction instrument, which includes a mechanism for grasping and fitting a magnetic rod sleeve. The sample, along with the magnetic rod sleeve, is then transferred to a magnetic bead solution well for rotational mixing. After washing, the magnetic rod extends into the sleeve for magnetic separation, carrying the magnetic beads to subsequent sample incubation and washing solution wells. The entire process is highly automated, improving cell sorting efficiency and reducing manual labor and operational risks. Attached Figure Description

[0017] This invention is compatible with an extraction instrument, which includes a magnetic rod holder for grasping and fitting the magnetic rod. The sample is then transferred to the magnetic bead solution well 3 with the magnetic rod holder attached for rotational mixing (i.e., washing). After washing, the magnetic rod extends into the magnetic rod holder inside the extraction instrument for magnetic separation and transfers the magnetic beads to the subsequent sample incubation and washing solution well 5. The entire process is highly automated, improving cell sorting efficiency and reducing manual labor and operational risks. Negative samples are retained in the sample loading well 2, and positive samples are retained in the elution solution well 5.
