The invention discloses a single
cell suction device and method, and relates to the technical field of single
cell separation.The single
cell suction device comprises a multi-axis adjusting platform, a suction mechanism, a sample moving platform, a sample holder, a focusing module and an imaging
system.The output end of the multi-axis adjusting platform is connected with the suction mechanism, and the output end of the sample moving platform is connected with the sample holder; the suction mechanism is located above the sample holder, the sample holder is used for placing a single cell sample, the focusing module is located below the sample moving platform and can focus the sample holder and the
tail end of the suction mechanism, and the imaging
system is located below the sample moving platform and can focus the sample holder and the
tail end of the suction mechanism. The multi-axis adjusting platform is used for moving the
tail end of the suction mechanism to the center of the imaging
system, the sample moving platform is used for driving the sample rack to move and enabling the single-cell sample on the sample rack to be located at the center of the imaging system, and the suction mechanism is used for sucking the single-cell sample on the sample rack. According to the invention, automatic needle alignment and automatic stable suction and release of target cells can be realized, and the operation difficulty is reduced.
