Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of purification device technology, specifically a high-throughput single-cell screening and purification device. Background Technology
[0002] Cell purification refers to the technical process of isolating specific cell types from complex biological samples (such as tissues, blood, or mixed cell cultures) to obtain a high-purity target cell population. Its core purpose is to remove impurity cells (such as fibroblasts, erythrocytes, and other immune cells) to ensure the accuracy and reliability of subsequent experiments or treatments.
[0003] Before performing single-cell purification, the inoculation loop needs to be heated with an alcohol lamp. Then, a single colony is picked and inoculated onto a good culture dish. Next, the streak plate method is used to draw four regions in the culture dish. After completion, the culture dish is placed in an incubator for 24-48 hours to complete the purification process. Throughout the process, the experimenter needs to move the culture dish back and forth, which not only reduces work efficiency but also makes it easy for the culture dish to fall, causing the purification process to be interrupted. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model aims to solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related technologies.
[0005] Therefore, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A high-throughput single-cell screening and purification device includes a purification mechanism, which includes a constant temperature chamber, two guide sleeves installed on one side of the constant temperature chamber, an experimental platform slidably connected between the two guide sleeves, two support legs movably connected to the bottom of the experimental platform, and an alcohol lamp movably connected to the experimental platform via a rotating shaft. The experimental platform has an opening suitable for the rotation of the alcohol lamp.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, after placing the experimental table horizontally, the support legs are opened, and then the experimental table is lowered so that the support legs are in contact with the tabletop. Then, the incubator is opened, and the petri dishes containing the samples are placed directly on the experimental table for observation. White samples are considered acceptable, while other colors are unacceptable. The inoculation loop is then sterilized by passing it over an alcohol lamp to complete the aseptic process. The streak plate method is then used to divide the petri dish into four areas for inoculation. Finally, the petri dishes are placed in the incubator for 1 to 2 days. The coordinated design of the experimental table and the incubator avoids repeated handling of the petri dishes and significantly improves work efficiency.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that: notches are provided on both the front and rear sides of the experimental platform, and the length of the notches is equal to the height of the guide sleeve.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that the support legs are shaped like a "「", with the bottom ends of the two support legs located on the same horizontal plane.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that a gap is formed between the constant temperature chamber and the experimental table, the width of which is greater than the diameter of the alcohol lamp body.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that: a plug is installed at the top of the support leg, and the top of the plug is movably engaged with the bottom of the experimental platform.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that: a handle is provided inside the spacing, and the handle is fixedly connected to the experimental table.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the present invention can be further configured such that: a slot is provided on one side of the constant temperature chamber, the slot is located between two guide sleeves, and the slot is suitable for the support leg to engage.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects achieved by this utility model are as follows:
[0015] 1. In this utility model, after placing the experimental table horizontally, the support legs are opened, and then the experimental table is lowered so that the support legs are in contact with the tabletop. Then, the incubator is opened, and the culture dish containing the sample is placed directly on the experimental table for observation. If the sample color is white, it is qualified; other colors are unqualified. Then, the inoculation loop is sterilized by passing it over an alcohol lamp to complete the aseptic treatment. Then, the streak plate method is used to divide the culture dish into four areas to complete the inoculation. Finally, the culture dish is placed in the incubator for 1 to 2 days. The coordinated design of the experimental table and the incubator avoids repeated handling of the culture dish and significantly improves work efficiency.
[0016] 2. In this invention, because the top of the alcohol lamp is small and the bottom is large, the bottom of the alcohol lamp will always face downwards, regardless of whether the experimental table is placed vertically or horizontally. This prevents alcohol leakage from the alcohol lamp on the wall and ensures experimental safety. Attached Figure Description
