Nasal spray device

The present invention relates to a nasal spray device comprising: a container; the pump assembly comprises a liquid conveying piece; the nose bearing structure is provided with a nose bearing opening; an air flow channel is formed between an air blowing opening and the nose bell opening of the mouth bearing structure; the locking mechanism comprises a locking element; the locking mechanism comprises a locking element linked with the locking element; when liquid suction is triggered, the liquid conveying piece moves in the first direction so as to suck liquid from the container. When liquid suction is completed, the locking element directly or indirectly locks the infusion piece so as to prevent the infusion piece from moving in the second direction to trigger spraying; when the pressure of the air flow blown in from the air blowing port is larger than a preset value, the air flow pushes the locking element to move to the opening position so as to open the air flow channel, and the locking element can be triggered by movement of the locking element so that locking can be relieved. According to the nasal spray device, the atomization difference effect caused by individual pressing force difference is avoided, hand pressing operation is omitted, operation is more convenient, and conveying and deposition of small-particle-size fog drop particles in the nasal cavity are facilitated through assistance of airflow.

Detection of low allele frequency mutations using allele-specific amplification and crispr / CAS13a-based method

To improve allele discrimination, the inventors adapted the system combining Cas13a detection sensitivity with allele-specific PCR amplification to propose CASPER (Cas13a Allele-Specific PCR Enzyme Recognition) as a new versatile, easy-to-implement, and highly sensitive method to detect low-frequency of sequence variant. CASPER enabled specific and sensitive detection of KRASG12D with low DNA input such as DNA extracted from patient's pancreatic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration fluids. CASPER is easy to implement and a versatile reliable method virtually adaptable to any point mutation.
