Definitions
- Apparatus and method for separating magnetic or magnetizable particles from a liquid Apparatus and method for separating magnetic or magnetizable particles from a liquid.
- the invention relates to devices for separating and resuspending magnetic or magnetizable particles from liquids by means of a magnetic field generated by one or more permanent magnets.
- the invention further relates to methods for separating magnetic or magnetizable particles from liquids and mixing and resuspending magnetic or magnetizable particles in liquids by means of a magnetic field generated by one or more permanent magnets.
- the devices and methods are suitable, for example, for applications in pharmaceutical development, biochemistry, molecular genetics, microbiology, medical diagnostics and forensic medicine.
- the basic principle of the magnetic separation of substances from complex mixtures is based on the fact that magnetic particles (magnetizable or magnetically attractable particles) are specifically functionalized for the intended separation process, d. H. they are provided by chemical treatment with specific binding properties for the target substances to be separated.
- the size of such magnetic particles is generally in the range of about 0.05 to 500 ⁇ m.
- Magnetic particles which have specific binding properties for certain substances and are suitable for separating these substances from complex mixtures have been described, for example, in DE 195 28 029 A1 and are commercially available (eg, Chemagen Biopolymer-Technologie AG, DE-52499 Baesweiler) ,
- the functionalized magnetic particles are added in a first step ("binding step") to a mixture to be purified, which contains the target substance (s) in a liquid which favors the binding of the target substance molecules to the magnetic particles (binding buffer).
- binding step a first step
- these magnetic particles are immobilized by application of magnetic forces or a magnetic field, for example by means of a permanent magnet, at a location of the reaction vessel inner wall ("pellet").
- pellet the liquid supernatant is separated and discarded, for example by suction or decantation.
- the magnetic particles are immobilized in the aforementioned manner, it is largely prevented that these particles are separated with the supernatant. Subsequently, the immobilized magnetic particles are resuspended again.
- an elution liquid or an elution buffer is used, which is suitable for dissolving the bond between the target substance (s) and the magnetic particles, so that the target substance molecules are released from the magnetic particles and can be separated with the elution liquid, while the magnetic particles are immobilized by the action of a magnetic field.
- one or more washing steps can be carried out before the elution step.
- the magnetic particles can also be used directly for diagnostic or analytical studies.
- the functionalization allows the specific binding z .B. of pathogenic substances.
- all impurities must be removed in suitable solutions. This requires the most efficient possible mixing (washing) of the analyte-containing particles. Such a process facilitates the present invention, especially if the number of simultaneously processed samples is large or must be worked in small volumes (384 or 1536 format).
- DE 296 14 623 Ul discloses a magnetic separator equipped with movable permanent magnets. Alternatively, it is proposed to move the magnetic particles containing reaction vessel by mechanical drive means relative to a permanently installed permanent magnet. The device described in DE 296 14 623 Ul has no magnetizable rods that dip into the sample liquid; rather, the permanent magazines each positioned next to the individual reaction vessels.
- the apparatus described in DE 100 63 984 A1 operates according to a similar principle and has a movable magnet holder and a movable reaction vessel holder, wherein the magnets can be positioned laterally of the reaction vessels.
- the magnetic particles are immobilized or collected on the inner wall or at the bottom of a reaction vessel as a "pellet".
- these devices are not suitable for removing the magnetic particles from a reaction vessel. Therefore, to separate the liquid from the magnetic particles in each case the liquid must be sucked from the individual reaction vessels. This is disadvantageous because it involves a high material consumption (single pipette tips). Furthermore, it can not be prevented that individual magnetic particles are sucked with; This results in a high error rate. Further errors can be caused by dripping liquids, which lead to cross contamination.
- DE 100 57 396 C1 proposes a magnet separator which has a multiplicity of rotatable rods which can be magnetized by an electromagnetic exciter coil.
- the magnetic particles By immersing the rod in the liquid containing magnetic particles and pulling out the rod in the magnetized state, the magnetic particles can be removed from the liquid and optionally transferred to another reaction vessel. There they can be released by switching off the excitation coil back into a liquid, for example, in a washing or Eluti- onswashkeit.
- the excitation coil has a relatively large amount of space, resulting in constructive limitations.
- the geometry and geometry of the electromagnet are constrained in terms of the arrangement and number of rods, which may include limitations on sample processing. The geometry of the electromagnet, however, can not be changed arbitrarily, since then inhomogeneities of the magnetic field must be taken into account.
- the known devices are not suitable for the simultaneous treatment of larger numbers of samples, as required for high-throughput applications (eg 364 or 1536 well plates).
- the design effort would be immense and in addition a significantly higher susceptibility of the mechanics used would have to be accepted.
- the known devices are also disadvantageous because they are only suitable for individual sample vessels or only for a specific, fixed predetermined arrangement of the sample vessels, for example in the form of a 96-well microtiter plate.
- a magneto-separator apparatus be suitable or capable of being adapted for various types of sample vessels or for various types of sample vessels (e.g., 96, 364 or 1536 well plates).
- the invention therefore an object of the invention to provide devices and methods with which the separation of magnetic particles from liquids and the transfer of magnetic particles from a liquid is made possible in another liquid, without causing the aforementioned disadvantages occur.
- the devices and methods should be suitable for use in high-pressure procedures.
- the devices are intended to be used on the side and in particular suitable for different types of reaction vessels.
- the devices according to the invention for separating magnetic or magnetizable particles from a liquid are characterized by the following features:
- a header having one or more magnetizable bars which are fixedly or detachably connected to the header;
- One or more permanent magnets whose relative position with respect to the head piece by a predetermined movement of the / or the magnet and / or by a predetermined movement of the head piece is changeable.
- the operation of the device is based on the fact that the / the permanent magnet (s) over the head piece (with the rods attached thereto) can be positioned. This causes the magnetization of the rod (s). This state of the device is referred to as "on".
- the magnetizable rods When the magnetizable rods are immersed with their lower end or portion, for example, in a sample liquid having magnetic particles therein, the magnetic particles will adhere to the lower end of the rods due to the magnetic forces. The sticks with the adhered magnetic particles can then be immersed in another liquid (eg, a reagent or wash solution).
- the permanent magnets are / are movably arranged relative to the head piece, so that the magnetization of the magnetizable bars attached to the head piece can be alternately switched on and off by movement of the magnet (s).
- the magnet (s) is / are moved over the head piece or away from the head piece.
- the magnetization or demagnetization can also be achieved by moving the head piece under the magnet (s) or away from the magnet, in which case the magnet (s) are preferably arranged stationary.
- the head piece By the movement of the head piece (with the magnetizable bars attached thereto), it can assume a first position, in which the head piece is located below the area of the permanent magnet (switched-on state), or it can assume a second position in which it is located is outside the specified range (switched off state).
- the device By being able to temporarily magnetize the rods, the device can be used to remove magnetic particles from a first fluid by means of the magnetizable rods and to transfer them into a second or further fluid and release them there.
- the arrangement of a permanent magnet which may also be composed of a plurality of individual magnets, a substantially homogeneous magnetic field is generated.
- a substantially homogeneous magnetic field is generated.
- the arrangement of a larger number of rods, for example in several rows, is made possible, wherein the magnetic field at each of the bars is approximately equal; This is particularly advantageous in terms of reproducibility of high throughput processes.
- the devices according to the invention also have the advantage that the magnetic particles - in the magnetized state - accumulate substantially at the tip of the rods whereby the adhering substances to be separated can be absorbed in comparatively small elution volumes. This guarantees - for diagnostic or analytical investigations essentially high concentrations of the substances to be separated.
- all hard magnetic materials known to the person skilled in the art can be used for producing the permanent magnets, in particular ferrites, Al-Ni-Co alloys and rare earth magnets (preferably NdFeB); Such magnetic materials and magnets are commercially available from various manufacturers.
- the number of magnetizable rods attached to the header depends on the number of samples or the number of wells in liquid containers that are to be treated simultaneously at most.
- Microtiter plates in particular with 96, 384 or 1536 depressions ("wells") are preferably used as containers, so that corresponding numbers of magnetizable bars are provided for these cases.
- sample tubes or reaction vessels having a volume of, for example, 0, 015 to 100 ml, which can be treated individually or in groups, in each case in combination with magnetizable rods adapted thereto.
- the magnetizable rods are preferably made of a soft magnetic material, for example of soft iron (in particular Fe nickel). Alloys) or magnetizable steel. Their length and diameter depend on the intended application, in particular on the dimensions of the containers and the volumes of liquid, and can be varied accordingly. If a group of multiple rods (for example 96, 384 or 1536) is used, then these rods each have the same length, thickness and material condition.
- the rods may optionally be hollow inside, ie be formed as tubes, wherein the lower end is preferably closed. In particular, the rods may be shaped as sleeves, as described below.
- the magnetic bars are substantially perpendicular and parallel to each other, and the individual bars of a group or array are preferably equidistant from adjacent bars.
- Particularly preferred is a grid-like arrangement of the rods, which corresponds to the arrangement of the wells in conventional microtiter plates.
- the invention therefore also extends to arrangements of magnetizable bars in which a plurality of magnetizable bars (4) are mounted on a base plate (9), the bars being substantially parallel to one another and preferably arranged in one, two or more rows are, each row comprising two or more rods.
- the magnetizable rods whether fixed or detachably connected to the head piece, preferably have a thickness of 0.5 mm to 10 mm, in particular 1 to 5 mm.
- the length of the rods is preferably 1 to 20 cm, in particular 5 to 10 cm.
- conventional means may be used (eg glued connection, screw connection, welding).
- the head piece (without rods) may be wholly or partly made of a non-magnetic or non-magnetizable material.
- the magnetizable rods are preferably connected by means of a clamping connection to the head plate.
- the head piece may be provided on its underside with corresponding recesses or holes into which the rods can be inserted.
- rods may be used which are tubular or at least have a recess at their upper end and which can be plugged onto corresponding pins or protrusions provided on the underside of the header.
- the head piece is provided with a mechanism which releases the clamping connection between the bars and the head piece, thus causing the bars to be pushed off or thrown off when they are to be replaced by unused bars after use.
- This may preferably be accomplished by electromotive drive, or by pneumatic, electromagnetic or hydraulic means, or by a combination thereof.
- the magnetizable rods are attached to a base plate and form a unit with this.
- the base plate can be detachably connected to the header.
- the base plate and the rods located thereon can optionally also be made in one piece.
