Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to a particle enrichment device, in particular to a micro-nano particle enrichment device based on coupling of a variable cross-section microchannel and a viscoelastic fluid.
Background
The high-efficiency enrichment of the micron or nano particles has important application value in the fields of biomedicine and the like. For example, in biomedicine, blood cells are efficiently enriched into a straight line, different blood cells sequentially pass through a detection area, and information such as the types and the number of various blood cells can be obtained, so that the method has important significance for early diagnosis and disease condition monitoring of diseases. In addition, in the early stage of some diseases, the concentration of pathological cells or related nano-scale proteins is low, and the efficient enrichment of such micro-or nano-particles is beneficial to improving the detection accuracy. Currently, the approaches for micro-or nanoparticle enrichment mainly include both active and passive approaches. The active mode needs an external force field, the structure is complex, and the energy consumption is high. Compared with the passive particle enrichment mode, the passive particle enrichment mode does not need an external force field, and is simple in structure by only depending on the interaction of fluid and particles. However, the passive particle enrichment precision is low at present, and especially the enrichment efficiency aiming at nano-scale particles is extremely low. There is therefore a need to develop methods for the efficient enrichment of micro-and nano-sized particles.

2) The structure is simple. The invention only needs the variable cross-section micro-channel, does not need external force fields such as an electric field, an ultrasonic field and the like to control the particles, does not need the sheath flow effect, and greatly simplifies the structure of the device.
3) The operation is easy. According to the invention, only the function of the variable cross-section microchannel and the viscoelastic fluid is needed to be combined, the target particles are dispersed in the viscoelastic fluid and are introduced from the inlet of the variable cross-section microchannel, and the efficient enrichment of the particles at the outlet of the microchannel can be realized.
4) The application range of the particles is wide. Can realize the high-efficiency enrichment of micron and nano particles.
