Description

Totally-enclosed pollution-free digital nucleic acid detection chip and detection method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of microfluidic droplet digital polymerase chain reaction, and particularly belongs to a totally-enclosed pollution-free digital nucleic acid detection chip and a detection method.
Background
With the shift of medical treatment modes and the continuous development of individual medicine, the medical inspection world needs a fast and accurate detection means urgently, and the molecular detection exerts unique advantages. At present, the molecular detection technology mainly comprises nucleic acid molecular hybridization, Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR), a biochip technology and the like, and molecular detection products are mainly applied to detection of clinical departments such as tumors, infections, heredity, prenatal screening and the like, aspects such as a physical examination center, a technical service center, a third-party detection mechanism, a microorganism rapid detection market and the like, and play an important role in detection of novel coronaviruses. The Digital PCR (dPCR) technique is a technique for nucleic acid quantification based on a single-molecule PCR method, and is a technique for nucleic acid molecular amplification and absolute quantification. The digital PCR of the liquid drop based on the liquid drop microfluidic technology comprises the following components: the advantages of easy providing of micro-reactor with small volume and high flux, etc. are widely paid attention to.
The working principle of the micro-droplet digital PCR system is as follows: firstly, a sample to be tested is evenly distributed into a plurality of nano-liter (diameter is several microns to hundreds of microns) "water-in-oil" micro-droplets by a special micro-droplet generator, and the number of the micro-droplets is in the million level. Because the micro-droplets are enough in quantity and are mutually isolated by the oil layer, each micro-droplet is equivalent to a micro-reactor, and the micro-droplets only contain DNA single molecules of a sample to be detected; then, PCR amplification reactions are performed on the droplets, and the droplets are individually detected for their fluorescent signals by a droplet analyzer, and droplets with a fluorescent signal are interpreted as 1, and droplets without a fluorescent signal are interpreted as 0. And finally, obtaining the number of target DNA molecules of the sample to be detected according to the Poisson distribution principle and the number and proportion of the positive microdroplets, and realizing absolute quantification of the nucleic acid sample. The judgment of the fluorescence signal of the micro-droplet sample depends on a core technology: the design and processing of the micro-droplet fluorescence detection device are characterized in that negative micro-droplets and positive micro-droplets are distinguished by using the fluorescence signal of a product in the laser-excited micro-droplets.
Currently available instruments such as BIO-RAD QX200TMCombining water-in-oil emulsification microdroplet technology with microfluidics, 20000 uniform nanoliter-scale microdroplets can be generated for each sample by means of a microdroplet generator, wherein the target fragments and background sequences are randomly distributed in the microdroplets, and each microdroplet is an independent reactor. After PCR using a thermal cycler, the QX200 droplet analyzer will analyze the droplets in each sample individually. After the droplets are inhaled, the droplets are sequentially passed through a bicolor optical detection system under the action of sheath fluid oil. The system will count the number of positive and negative droplets to perform an absolute quantitative analysis of the target DNA in a digital format.
For the micro-droplet observation of the digital PCR detector, a droplet array micro-imaging mode is adopted, the forms of all droplets can be clearly obtained, interference factors such as non-specific amplification and the like are reduced, and the reliability of a detection result is improved.
