Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cell pipetting technology, and in particular to an integrated pipetting device based on a cell slide staining machine. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous advancement of medical technology, cytopathological testing plays an increasingly important role in disease diagnosis. Liquid-based thin-layer cytology (LTB) is one of the commonly used detection methods, including membrane methods, natural sedimentation methods, and centrifugation methods. Among them, sedimentation-based LTB is widely used due to its stable slide quality. However, this method has a complex process, involving multiple steps such as sample cell collection, mixing, multiple gradient centrifugation, adding buffer solution, transferring cells to glass slides for natural sedimentation, and subsequent staining. Each step has a significant impact on cell morphology and detection results, which requires precise and efficient pipetting devices to ensure the accuracy and consistency of liquid handling in each step.

[0003] In traditional cell preparation and staining processes, specimens or reagents are often added manually using disposable syringes. This method is not only inefficient but also prone to human error. Previously, long liquid channels connecting the air pump and the staining container were commonly used for staining transfer. However, these long channels present several problems, such as large volumes of liquid and inconsistent internal temperatures affecting cell viability. Current market solutions utilize technologies like motor drives, mechanical transmissions, and microcontrollers to precisely control the movement of the pipette tip and the liquid aspiration and dispensing process. Redesigning the liquid channel layout to place the pipette container closer to the work area and reduce the length of the liquid channels has solved the infection problem associated with excessively long pipettes. However, the internal temperature control of most pipettes remains unresolved. A suitable temperature environment is beneficial for maintaining cell viability and significantly improving cell survival rates. Therefore, an integrated pipetting device for cell preparation and staining machines with adjustable temperature is needed. Utility Model Content
