This invention discloses a circulating microfluidic device for
cell sorting and its usage method, belonging to the field of
cell sorting technology. The device comprises a
storage tank, a filter screen, a reciprocating screw, a
moving frame, a cleaning plate, and a compression spring. After the positioning slots on both sides of the filter screen are engaged with the positioning strips on the inner wall of the
storage tank, the filter screen and cleaning plate are pressed together, lifting the cleaning plate. This causes the compression spring to deform between the
moving frame and the cleaning plate, and under the rebound of the compression spring, the cleaning plate is pressed firmly against the surface of the filter screen. An appropriate amount of
cell stock solution is poured into the opening of the
storage tank. Simultaneously, a rotating motor is started to control the reciprocating screw to rotate, causing the
moving frame to reciprocate on the surface of the reciprocating screw, which in turn moves the cleaning plate back and forth on the surface of the filter screen. This cleans the
cell debris accumulated on the surface of the filter screen, preventing
cell debris from accumulating on the filter screen for a long time and clogging it, thus affecting the
filtration effect of the cell
stock solution.
