Definitions
- the present invention relates to a microfluidic reaction carrier which, depending on the embodiment, enables purely fluid or light-controlled synthesis and analysis of oligomers or polymers.
- any other application as a miniaturized chemical or biochemical synthesis and analysis platform is conceivable, for example, for use in combinatorial chemistry.
- Microfluidic systems are generally still at the beginning of their development. However, they are already an important area e.g. in the field of micropumps or microvalves. The focus of current work in this area is on the production of miniaturized structures, preferably using methods from semiconductor technology.
- Microdosing systems link microminiaturized pumps and valves with sensors for control and regulation circuits. Such systems are currently being developed and tested for special applications, e.g. for drug dosing or the dosing of the smallest amounts of liquid in a free jet according to the principle of an inkjet printer. These are used, for example, for the production of polymer probe arrays by spraying various biochemical substances onto defined positions on a carrier body.
- microfluid analysis systems has so far only been carried out in some cases, e.g. in systems for analyzing the heavy metal content in groundwater.
- Various established silicon technologies such as, for example, isotropic and anisotropic etching, are preferably used for the production of test and functional samples of such microfluid analysis systems.
- micro-injection molding miniaturized hot molding
- LIGA light-induced galvano-molding
- the aim is therefore to develop a technology which can be used to analyze in the range of 10 8 and more bases per hour and to prepare the data so that a meaningful interaction between the operator and the device to be used is possible.
- the heart of such a device is the subject of this invention and will be described below as a microfluidic reaction carrier.
- This reaction carrier according to the invention is intended to represent, for example, the central component of systems for the automatic fragment synthesis and analysis of oligomers or polymers. Such a system is described in patent application 1 9924327.1.
- the reaction carrier according to the invention contains a structure of microchannels of different sizes, geometries and functions. Part of the microchannels is used for fluid supply and discharge. All other channels serve as reaction areas, and depending on the application, fluid reservoirs etc. can optionally be integrated into the microstructure.
- the reaction carrier is flowed through either in a two- or a three-dimensional structure.
- the two-dimensional design variant consists of at least one supply and one discharge channel in one flow plane. These two channels are connected by several channels running approximately perpendicularly thereto, these vertical connecting channels serving as preferred reaction areas.
- the reaction channels thus created can likewise be subdivided into smaller channels, each reaction channel comprising one or more reaction areas. These reaction areas can for example be arranged along the channel.
- the more complex three-dimensional version consists of three flow levels.
- the feed channels are each parallel to one another in a first flow level and the discharge ducts are each arranged parallel to one another in a third flow plane, feed and discharge ducts being arranged in a vertical projection either parallel to one another or at an angle to one another, this angle preferably being selected approximately equal to 90 °.
- vertical channels are also arranged, which form a third flow level and connect the feed channels of the first to the discharge channels of the third level.
- the fluids are discharged from the reaction areas without these fluids coming into contact with another reaction area of the entire reaction support. This is particularly relevant for reactions whose waste products could damage or destroy other reaction areas.
- All three variants of the microfluidic reaction carrier according to the invention each have one on the top and the bottom
- Feed and discharge channels of the three-dimensional structure is at least one of the cover layers is designed to be transparent in order to enable light-controlled photoactivation in the individual reaction areas by individual exposure, for example by means of a programmable light source matrix as described in patent application 199 07 080.6. All three variants are preferably made with two transparent cover layers to enable permanent optical process control in the reaction support and the measurement of detection reactions in transmitted light.
- each individual reaction area from the vertically arranged microchannels. This is done in each case by a feed channel flushed with fluid and fluid is discharged through a discharge duct. The fluid flows through the supply channel into the vertical microreaction channels and out of the reaction carrier through the discharge channel. In the same way, several reaction areas can also be flushed simultaneously, and this even with different fluids.
- the microfluidic reaction carrier according to the invention with the "cross structure" caused by the angled arrangement thus opens up a variety of applications in combinatorial chemistry or DNA analysis.
- Another application is the alternating flow of feed materials to all supply and discharge channels, the function of the fluid supply and removal of the supply and discharge channels changing from cycle to cycle. If, for example, each channel is flushed with a different building block of a polymer probe to be synthesized, a large variety of oligomer or polymer probes can be generated in the individual reaction areas of a reaction support in a few cycles by using the cross structure. The synthesis of any specific individual probes in a reaction area is possible without problems by the individual control of a reaction area described above.
- the microfluidic reaction carrier according to the invention with the cross structure thus offers the possibility of efficient wet chemical oligomer probe or polymer probe synthesis of probe arrays. This procedure is referred to below as fluid multiplexing. In situ synthesis using process monitoring and integrated synthesis and analysis are also possible.
- microfluidic reaction carrier is integrated as a fixed component in a device and is, for example, chemically cleaned between applications and only has to be changed for maintenance purposes. If the microfluidic reaction carrier is replaced after each use, however, direct integration is not sensible. Rather, it is then advisable to arrange the components in the system accordingly.
- the invention also relates to the supply of the microfluidic reaction carrier with the corresponding fluids.
- a new, integrated valve system was also designed for this purpose. This allows a large number of fluids to be provided quickly on the feed and discharge channels of the microstructure.
- This fluid supply system is designed for the use of the microfluidic reaction carrier according to the invention for the construction of oligomer or polymer probe arrays in the reaction areas.
- the supply system is the same in the connections and components for the upper and lower feed and discharge channels. From one side, all channels are individually supplied via a multiplex valve described below. All channels are brought together at the associated other channel end, this joining being used for the supply and discharge with uniform purging of all reaction areas. In the synthesis of oligomer or polymer probes in the reaction areas, these are all cycles apart from the supply of the specific individual building blocks, for example consisting of one or more nucleotides in the case of DNA synthesis.
- the valve is required to feed the specific modules. This connects the microchannels of the reaction carrier on one side with a maximum equal number of individual tanks as well as a collective connection on the other side. In one position of the valve, a tank is connected to one or more channels of the reaction carrier. If the fluid of a tank is to get into more than one channel or a channel bundle of the reaction carrier in one cycle, only one channel and then further channels are supplied serially.
- the collective connection corresponds to the merging of the channels on the opposite side of the reaction carrier. It is used for the efficient flushing of the valve and reaction carrier.
- connection of the microfluidic reaction carrier to its fluid supply and disposal is an important element. If the reaction carrier is cleaned and reused again and again in the specific application, a complex connection technology, for example to the multiplex valve, can be provided.
- a complex connection technology for example to the multiplex valve.
- this version has the disadvantage of the risk of deposits in the bends and kinks of the individual microchannels.
- Backwashing can be provided here to avoid carryover.
- fast connections that do not seal are necessary. there can, for example, be connected flat to the front of the reaction support with a continuous bend-free channel. The risk of carry-over is therefore minimal.
- a second alternative is to press the underside of the reaction carrier onto the fluid supply. Suitable chemical-resistant seals must be provided.
- One aspect of the invention is to be understood as a cleaning, in particular a complete regeneration of the reaction carrier. In the regenerated state, this can then be used again for a new polymer synthesis.
- chemical cleaning it is preferable to ensure that the connection point necessary for the connection of a first polymer component is not destroyed.
- the predetermined breaking point required for chemical cleaning can be split by chemical (e.g. wet chemical, photochemical, electrochemical) or by a biological (e.g. enzymatic) transformation. This can be done through a one-step or multi-step process.
- the predetermined breaking point is preferably provided during the first surface derivatization of the microfluidic reaction carrier - preferably in the linker system that connects the surface with the first polymer component. It is ensured in each case that the predetermined breaking point cannot be broken by the analytes or reagents used, neither during synthesis nor during analysis.
- the predetermined breaking point is broken by a single transformation.
- these are base-labile linkers, acid-labile linkers, oxidation-labile linkers or degradation with the aid of suitable enzymes.
- enzymatic cleaning of the reaction carrier can also be carried out.
- the polymer or oligomer probes linked to the reaction carrier are cleaved with a DNA or RNA-degrading enzyme or a peptide Enzyme split or "digested", which leads to a partial or complete degradation of the probes.
- the reaction support can then be used again for the synthesis of new probes.
- Suitable enzymes are nucleases such as exonucleases or endonucleases, which attack a strand of nucleic acid from the ends or within the probe strand and leave nucleotides or nucleosides as cleavage products.
- nucleases such as exonucleases or endonucleases
- RNAsen such as RNAse H etc.
- the regeneration of a reaction carrier with DNA probes can also be achieved by using DNAsen (DNAse I, DNAse II, etc.), whereby both single-stranded and double-stranded DNA can be degraded.
- Peptide-cleaving enzymes can also be used as a predetermined breaking point for the degradation of peptide probes or peptide sequence sections.
- the predetermined breaking point is broken in a multi-stage process, i.e. the predetermined breaking point is masked in a form. For this it is necessary that this masking is first removed in one or more steps before the predetermined breaking point can then ultimately be broken in the subsequent step.
- a masked photolabile linker can be used, in which an o-nitro function necessary for the photolability is only generated by an upstream transformation. This can be done, for example, by oxidation of an amino function. This - not necessarily specific - oxidation step can be enzymatic or wet chemical respectively. Once the o-nitro function has been generated, the predetermined breaking point can then be split by exposure to light.
- a double-stranded DNA sequence can be generated in a first step by adding an analyte complementary to the linker, which is then recognized in the following step by a special enzyme (restriction enzyme) and specifically cleaved.
- a special enzyme restriction enzyme
- RNA section is used as a probe “base”
- chemical regeneration of the reaction carrier can also take place in several stages.
- the synthesis is first carried out using 2'-OH-protected phosphitamide building blocks. After hybridization and analysis, the protective group of the RNA section is split off for regeneration, resulting in a free 2'-OH group.
- the ribose sugar can then be cleaved in a subsequent chemical reaction step using periodate or other oxidizing agents and the probe can be removed from the reaction carrier by ⁇ -elimination.
- the receptor cleavage or molecule cleavage in the sense explained above can also be carried out to collect cleaved molecules and to use them for further chemical processes, for example for a synthesis step.
- the cleaning processes can be viewed as steps to obtain molecules synthesized on a carrier.
- the microfluidic reaction carrier according to the invention is constructed in several layers, as is also customary in semiconductor microtechnology. A distinction can be made between a division of the microstructure into functional layers and construction-related layers.
- a three-dimensional structure consists of at least five functional layers. These functional layers are described in more detail below. In production, several of these functional layers can often be integrated into a construction-related layer using suitable manufacturing processes.
- the functional layers of the two-dimensional structure contain a middle structure layer, into which the microflow structure comprising channels, reaction areas and reservoirs is introduced. It is connected to an upper and a lower cover layer and can be made of glass, plastic or silicon. Depending on the version, the material used can be transparent or opaque. For example, Futoran glass from Schott, silicon or Teflon is recommended as the opaque material.
- the three-dimensional structures consist of five functional layers.
- the reaction support is constructed in mirror image to a middle level. The production does not necessarily have to be based on the functional layers. So is one Integration of the feed and discharge structure possible in the middle layer as well as in the top layer.
- the middle layer with the vertical microchannels as reaction areas for example, suitable silicon wafers from semiconductor technology with etched pores from Siemens or fused glass fibers (fiberglass wafers) from Schott with etched out souls and a size ratio between wall thickness and channel cross section of preferably 1 5 can be used.
- the middle functional level can be supplemented by an upper and a lower intermediate layer. This prevents or impedes an unwanted inflow of fluids (hydrophilic or hydrophobic barriers).
- Bonding processes are used as connection technologies for silicon, glass and fiberglass wafers (with and without core).
- the parts, such as the various wafers, are manufactured using etching techniques as well as sawing and polishing.
- Processes such as injection molding, hot stamping or LIGA are used to use plastics such as Teflon, which is opaque, and COC or polystyrene, which is transparent.
- the connection of components is e.g. by means of gluing or ultrasonic welding or by mechanical pressure sealing using a holder or a frame.
- the top cover layer closes off the underlying microflow structure to the outside. This creates the microchannels.
- the layer is designed to be translucent for the entry of light into these channels.
- microlenses in glass from the company Mikroglas or Kunststoff (IMM Mainz) can also be used. It is also possible to use a honeycomb structure made of melted glass fibers, which was developed by Schott or ITT, for example, and is used for night vision devices, for example. This will take a long time Glass fiber bundles heated so that they melt together and form a unit. This creates a rod from which thin slices are then sawn off and polished in a manner analogous to silicon technology. These can then be bonded with glass or silicon or glued or welded with plastics.
- the intended use of the microfluidic reaction carrier according to the invention is used as follows: First, a group of reaction areas is controlled by the microchannels of a two- or three-dimensional microstructure. After the reaction there, the reaction products formed in the individual reaction areas are discharged through microchannels without the reaction products flowing through a further reaction area.
- a control of the reaction areas in the described three-dimensional cross structure for the purely fluidic synthesis of oligomers or polymers from mono-, oligo- or polymers, or also to accelerate the light-controlled synthesis or a combined wet-chemical and light-controlled synthesis of oligomers or polymers by the described intelligent multiplexing of the input materials can be used.
- reaction areas and microchannels are visually checked using transparent cover layers as a platform for in-situ synthesis, permanent process control and regulation of the processes in the microstructure.
- Light signals from detection reactions which arise in the reaction areas by chemical (for example luminescence), biochemical (for example bioluminescence) or light-induced (for example fluorescence) reactions can be carried out in an integrated synthesis and analysis device surrounding the fluidic microprocessor, as described in patent application 1 9924327.1 is described.
- Absorption measurements in the reaction carrier are also possible through the detection of light signals which cross the microchannels and reaction areas in the transmitted light process or are reflected in the rear light process. This can be used, for example, for extended qualitative quality assurance.
- reaction products are removed from each reaction area without another reaction area coming into contact with the reaction products. This enables reactions for synthesis and analysis to be carried out in the reaction areas, which produce reaction products (end products or intermediates) which would be harmful to other reaction areas.
- the three-dimensional microchannels Compared to planar surfaces, the three-dimensional microchannels have a larger surface that can be used as a solid phase.
- microstructures reduces the amount of fluid required for the reactions and at the same time increases the reaction speed. This applies both to covalent bonds and, for example, to the hybridization times in applications in DNA, RNA, PNA, LNA analysis or in protein applications.
- Transparent cover layers enable photoreactions, for example for the light-controlled synthesis of DNA, RNA, PNA, LNA or proteins, etc.
- the transparent cover layers enable permanent process control for the regulation of the reactions as well as the fluidics in the reaction carrier. This significantly reduces errors in both production and detection, which increases the number of measurements that can be evaluated per use of material and time.
- a suitable design of the geometry of the individual reaction areas and of the microchannels between the reaction areas allows the beam paths to be influenced in a targeted manner, taking into account the refractive indices that occur in the reaction support.
- the fluidic microprocessors according to the invention can be designed as simple components for single use. In principle, inexpensive plastic structures are preferred here, but glass and silicon or material combinations are also possible. The fast and inexpensive production will enable a variety of individual applications, in which e.g. probe arrays can be specifically synthesized and analyzed on the Internet, taking sequence and gene databases into account.
- reaction areas are always three-dimensional and have a considerably larger surface area than the planar base area.
- This three-dimensional geometry therefore greatly increases the usable reaction surface.
- This size of the surface is of great importance for use as a solid phase. For example, it can be just as important for the attachment of oligonucleotides during synthesis in the reaction support as for the attachment of sample fragments flowing past during analysis in the reaction support.
- the three-dimensional cross structure enables applications, for example in oligonucleotide analysis or in combinatorial chemistry, etc.
- a large number of different combinations of oligomers or polymers can be quickly generated in the individual reaction areas of the reaction support.
- This enables a very efficient wet chemical synthesis of an oligomer or polymer probe array in a reaction carrier. This can be done under computer control, which means the generation of any combination of nucleotides in each reaction area is made possible.
- the analysis can also be carried out directly in the reaction carrier, whereby permanent process control is possible.
- the number of production cycles of "probe arrays" can be reduced by appropriate multiplexing of the fluids.
- For the site-specific generation of a large number of different oligo or polymer probes, for example 20 bases in length, on a planar surface by means of local photoactivation, four synthesis cycles are required in each level, which is due to the four different bases. In total, 4 x 20 80 cycles are required. There is no systematic way to reduce the number of synthesis cycles. In the synthesis in the microfluidic reaction carrier, on the other hand, there is the possibility of simultaneously distributing the starting materials, that is to say the monomers or oligomers, over microfluidic sub-areas.
- the synthesis cycles can be reduced to a minimum of 5 cycles when using tetramers, for example.
- the exact number of cycles required for a specific probe array is individual for each probe pattern and can only be given as a statistical average if the number of reaction areas in the reaction support, the number of parallel fluidic subspaces and the length of the oligomers to be synthesized are specified.
- reaction support In addition to the synthesis of oligomers and polymers up to whole genes and genomes, there is the possibility of "de novo sequencing of unknown polymers such as DNA, RNA, PNA, LNA, proteins and others by one Sequence comparison with prepared sample material It is also possible to re - sequence polymers, that is to say to compare known and unknown sequences, with the known sequences being specifically selected it is possible to produce substance libraries for screening and analysis methods, in particular for nucleic acid analysis via hybridization.
- All processes from synthesis to analysis of simple or complex molecules can be integrated in the microfluidic reaction carrier according to the invention and these can be carried out very efficiently.
- This enables, for example, the flexible and cost-saving analysis of a large number of polymers by providing a large number of individual and specific polymer probes in miniaturized format with subsequent comparison of the probes with analytes of the sample material.
- a large amount of measurement data can be generated in screening and analysis processes and thus the wealth of information in biological systems can be managed holistically and efficiently in the shortest possible time.
- Fields of application are also methods and devices for continuous, discrete fragment analysis, which are accelerated by the present invention and thus made usable efficiently, and in principle all applications of oligo / polymer analysis such as in liquid chromatography / high pressure liquid id chromatography, gas chromatography, thin layer chromatography, Gel electrophoresis, capillary electrophoresis, mass spectrometry etc. as well as all applications of "probe arrays". It also supports substance development and the testing of corresponding substances, among others. in pharmaceutical research. Other important areas of application are molecular diagnostics, DNA and / or RNA analysis, screening for molecular interactions, for example in immunology, molecular biology, histology and combinatorial chemistry.
