Description
Technical Field
The utility model relates to the field of biological sample freezing devices, in particular to a biological sample vitrification freezing carrier and a microscopic observation lining plate matched with the same.
Background
In the artificial assisted reproduction technology, the ovum or a plurality of embryos obtained after in vitro fertilization are put into liquid nitrogen with the temperature of 196 ℃ below zero for freezing storage for short-term or long-term phase-selective embryo transplantation, and the method becomes a common method for knowing the infertility. The clinical significance of the vitrified frozen biological sample is that the vitrified frozen biological sample can be stored in a coolant such as liquid nitrogen for a long time, embryos or cells frozen by the coolant stop developing and can be stored for decades, and secondly, the frozen biological sample can revive the embryos or cells in the biological significance after being rewarming.
When the normal temperature material is frozen, a Leidenfrost effect generated when the normal temperature material meets a cryogenic coolant such as liquid nitrogen can form a heat-conduction-blocking vapor film on the surface of the frozen material and slow down the cooling speed of the material to be frozen, and the formation of ice crystallization in a biological sample in the freezing process leads to the reduction of the revival rate of the recovered biological sample, so that a vitrification freezing technology pursuing rapid freezing is developed.
At present, in order to accelerate the freezing rate, the vitrification freezing carrier at home and abroad is generally in an open type, such as a thinning wheat tube method, a quartz capillary tube method, a Cryoloop method, a Cryotip method and the like, namely, the freezing carrier carrying the sample is directly immersed in liquid nitrogen. In 2005, Kuwayama proposed a new method of increasing the cooling rate by minimizing the volume of the solution-Cryotop method, etc., which involves minimizing the volume of cryoprotectant, i.e., immersing the sample-loaded frozen carrier directly into liquid nitrogen. But because the biological sample is in direct contact with liquid nitrogen, the sterile environment for storing the biological sample can not be provided, the cross contamination risk exists, and the direct toxic effect of the liquid nitrogen on cells is not predictable (Covo A, Domingo J, Perez S, et al. vision: an effective new approach to cell cloning and preservation in cancer tissues [ J ]. Clin Transl Oncol,2008,10(5): 268-273; closed straw vitrification freezing method is used for the observation of the freezing effect of the early embryo of human, Shandong medicine 2010, 50 th volume at the bottom of 2010; 15 th volume), more recent studies have shown that low molecular weight compounds In liquid nitrogen are toxic to biological samples (Y Panagitids, P Vanderzwelmen, YPrapas, E kasapi, et al, al Open top closed vision of blast from an on-home program: a productive random synthesized student: reproduction biomedical one, In Press, unordered project, Mar 2013).

Moreover, when the freezing device is placed under the microscope device and observed together with the culture dish, the freezing device cannot be kept on the same horizontal plane with the culture dish due to the height of the freezing device, so that an operator needs to continuously adjust the focal length when switching and observing the freezing device sample and the culture dish sample.

b) engaging and screwing the biological sample-containing carrier body of step a) with the sealing cap, thereby forming a sealed carrier containing a biological sample;
c) marking the sample information on the sealed carrier containing the biological sample in the step b) in a marking area or sticking a label printed with the sample information to the marking area of the sealing cap;
d) and c) placing the sealed carrier marked with the biological sample information in the step c) into a cooling agent for preservation.
Generally, the method for hermetically vitrification freezing the biological sample further comprises labeling the sealed carrier containing the biological sample; and/or marking the frozen carrier, placing the specimen and sealing to obtain the marked sealed carrier.
The vitrification freezing carrier and the method for quickly freezing the biological sample can achieve the cooling rate of 30000-.
In addition, when the carrier is applied to experiments or diagnosis and treatment, the carrier needs to be used after being sterilized and disinfected, and is operated in a sterile environment.
Materials and appearance
The material used for preparing the vitrified frozen carrier for the biological sample is a high molecular material or metal which is nontoxic and can resist the temperature change of shock cooling and shock heating.
In another preferred embodiment, the polymer material includes PE (polyethylene), PP (polypropylene); PET (polyethylene terephthalate).
In another preferred example, the metal comprises stainless steel, titanium alloy and aluminum magnesium alloy.
In another preferred example, the polymer material or metal is a medical polymer material or metal.
In the utility model, the body and the sealing cap are mutually buckled and sealed in various movable sleeving ways such as mutual buckling or threaded rotary connection. Generally, the fastening or threaded rotary connection device can achieve the sealing effect through various conventional methods, such as changing the shape or angle of threads and the like, and ensure the sealing self-locking of the sealing device in the quenching and rapid heating process.
The shapes of the body and the sealing cap are not particularly limited, and can be any matched cylindrical shapes, such as a cylinder shape and a hexagonal cylinder shape, so that the body and the sealing cap are convenient for an operator to hold and stabilize the carrier when placing biological samples such as embryos, ova and the like. In addition, the body and the sealing cap of the utility model can adopt various colors to distinguish the carrier used for the cryopreservation identification of different biological samples, tissues, cells and the like.
The utility model has the beneficial effects that:
1. the biological sample is stored in a sealed way, and the biological sample is safe and non-toxic: the carrier and the method are used for isolating and hermetically storing the biological sample and the freezing liquid, are safe and pollution-free, and reduce the potential toxicity risk of the freezing liquid to the biological sample and the assumed cross contamination of pathogenic bacteria in liquid nitrogen.
2. The freezing speed is fast, and the high-efficiency vitrification freezing is achieved: the carrier and the method can achieve the freezing rate of 30000-. Thereby achieving rapid vitrification freezing and avoiding the biological sample from being damaged by ice crystals in the freezing process.
3. The operation is convenient: the carrier adopts sealing modes such as thread fastening or sleeving, buckling fastening and the like, and when in operation, the biological sample can be placed on the platform and then the sealing cap is screwed, and then the biological sample can be placed in liquid nitrogen for storage, so that the complex procedure of the traditional thermoplastic sealing is replaced.
4. Safe and effective: because the special structure and the operation of the device are simple and easy, the sample is taken out after being reheated and is convenient as the sample is loaded, and because the biological sample placing area is concave, the biological sample is not easy to lose in the whole temperature reduction and heating process.
