Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of diagnostic reagent technology, and in particular to an elution device used in radioimmunoassay coating reaction. Background Technology

[0002] Radioimmunoassay (RIA) tube coating is an application of radioimmunoassay. Its basic principle is to immobilize antibodies on the surface of a solid-phase immunosorbent assay (IPA) tube (usually a plastic tube or microplate), and then add the sample and labeled antigen or antibody. Through competitive binding, unlabeled antigens or antibodies bind to the antibodies immobilized on the tube surface, while labeled antigens or antibodies bind to the remaining antibodies. By measuring the signal from the radionuclide, the content of antigen or antibody in the sample can be calculated. However, the following problems exist in actual operation: After the sample and labeled antigen are added to the coated tube and incubated, the operator usually adds washing solution from a wash bottle to the inside of the coated tube for washing, and then uses a syringe to aspirate the washing solution, repeating this process twice. Currently, a liquid pump is used to deliver the washing solution into the coated tube. Although this reduces the labor intensity to some extent, it still requires the operator to hold the washing solution delivery tube and align it with the coated tube. After the washing solution is added, the operator needs to hold the coated tube and shake it back and forth to ensure thorough washing. In addition, residual washing solution in the delivery tube may spill after the washing solution is added. Therefore, to address the above problems, it is necessary to develop an elution device that eliminates the need for coating reaction in coated tubes. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an elution device for coating reaction of coating tubes, which automatically adds and extracts the washing liquid without the need for manual operation by the staff, thus greatly improving work efficiency.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0005] An elution apparatus for coating reactions of coating tubes includes a support frame with a movably mounted support base. A rotating shaft is mounted on the support base, one end of which is connected to a drive device. The other end of the rotating shaft has a hollow placement tray with multiple placement slots adapted to the coating tubes. A storage tray is located between adjacent placement slots. Multiple liquid addition pipes are located above the placement tray, each connected to a washing liquid delivery pipe via a delivery pump. Multiple height-adjustable washing liquid extraction branch pipes, corresponding to the placement slots, are located above one side of the placement tray. One end of each washing liquid extraction branch pipe is connected to a waste washing liquid storage tank via a main washing liquid extraction pipe. The waste washing liquid storage tank is connected to a buffer tank via a pipe, and the buffer tank is connected to an electric suction device. A solenoid valve and a flow meter are mounted on the liquid addition pipes, and the solenoid valve, flow meter, and delivery pump are electrically connected to a controller.

[0006] As an improved technical solution, the support base is slidably mounted on the support plate of the support frame.

[0007] As an improved technical solution, the support frame is provided with a first fixing plate and a second fixing plate, and the first fixing plate and the second fixing plate are respectively provided with a first support plate and a second support plate. A plurality of liquid adding pipes are respectively fixed on the first support plate; a plurality of washing liquid extraction branch pipes are fixed on the second support plate, and the second support plate is slidably connected to the second fixing plate.

[0008] As an improved technical solution, lead plate protective covers are respectively provided on the outer wall of the waste washing liquid storage tank and the outer wall of the buffer tank.

[0009] As an improved technical solution, each of the washing liquid extraction branches is provided with a washing liquid suction head at its extraction end.

[0010] After adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0011] The elution device used in the coating reaction of the coating tube includes a support frame, a movable support base on the support frame, a rotating shaft on the support base, one end of the rotating shaft connected to a drive device, and the other end of the rotating shaft having a hollow placement tray. The placement tray has multiple placement slots adapted to the coating tubes, and a liquid storage tray is placed between two adjacent placement slots. Above the placement tray are multiple liquid addition pipes, each of which is connected to a washing liquid delivery pipe via a delivery pump. Above one side of the placement tray are multiple height-adjustable washing liquid extraction branch pipes corresponding to the placement slots. One end of each washing liquid extraction branch pipe is connected to a waste washing liquid storage tank via a main washing liquid extraction pipe. The waste washing liquid storage tank is connected to a buffer tank via a pipe, and the buffer tank is connected to an electric suction device. The liquid addition pipes are equipped with a solenoid valve and a flow meter, and the solenoid valve, flow meter, and delivery pump are electrically connected to a controller. In practical applications, after the incubation reaction is completed, the coated tubes are placed into the placement tank. The controller starts the delivery pump, solenoid valve, and flow meter, allowing the washing solution to enter the interior of the coated tubes. When the set flow rate is reached, the solenoid valve and flow meter close. The drive device drives the rotating shaft, placement tray, and multiple coated tubes to rotate. The washing solution dripping from the liquid addition tube is stored in the storage tray. The drive device drives the placement tray to rotate, causing the washing solution to agitate, thereby achieving thorough washing of the interior of the coated tubes. Then, the support base moves to one side, and the coated tubes in the placement tray move to below the washing solution extraction branch pipe as the motor rotates. The washing solution extraction branch pipe moves downward, so that the extraction end of the washing solution extraction branch pipe is located inside the coated tube. Under the action of the electric suction device, the washing solution in each coated tube is drawn into the waste washing solution storage tank, and a buffer tank prevents the waste washing solution from entering the electric suction device. After elution is completed, the washing solution extraction branch pipe moves upward again, and the coated tubes are removed for measurement and analysis. The above-mentioned elution device is reasonably designed and easy to operate. It can add and extract the washing solution without the need for manual operation.

[0012] The support base is slidably mounted on the support plate of the support frame. This design allows the support base to move left and right along the support frame.

[0013] The support frame is equipped with a first fixed plate and a second fixed plate, and the first fixed plate and the second fixed plate are respectively equipped with a first support plate and a second support plate. Multiple liquid addition pipes are fixed on the first support plate; multiple washing liquid extraction branch pipes are fixed on the second support plate, and the second support plate is slidably connected to the second fixed plate. This design achieves the fixation of the liquid addition pipes and also allows for the adjustment of the height of the washing liquid extraction branch pipes.

[0014] Because each dispensing tube has a tapered end, this design prevents spillage when adding the cleaning solution.

[0015] Lead plates are installed on the outer walls of both the waste washing liquid storage tank and the buffer tank. These lead plates effectively prevent radiation exposure to workers.

[0016] Each washing solution extraction branch is equipped with a washing solution suction tip at its extraction end. The design of the suction tip facilitates the extraction of the washing solution. Attached Figure Description

In practical applications, the controller activates the electric cylinder, causing the support base to move left and right along the support plate on the support frame.
