Publication number: 20240026336Abstract: A nucleic acid extraction device for molecular testing comprises a film-flipping mechanism, a cap mechanism, a dispensing mechanism, an extraction plate transfer mechanism, and a nucleic acid extraction module. A sealing film is adhered onto top of an extraction plate and folded along an outer edge of the extraction plate. A film-flipping head of the film-flipping mechanism abuts against a bottom surface of the extraction plate and pushes an edge of the sealing film to unfold the sealing film. A film gripper clamps and removes the unfolded sealing film. The cap mechanism opens the specimen containers. The dispensing mechanism transfers the specimens from the specimen containers to the extraction plate. The extraction plate transfer mechanism moves the extraction plate with the specimens to the nucleic acid extraction module. As a result, molecular testing is automated to reduce labor and improve quality.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2022Publication date: January 25, 2024Inventors: Hsin-Wu MI, Hsin-Fei HUANG

Patent number: 11744242Abstract: A living body specimen transport device for receiving multiple living body specimens has a frame, a rotating bracket, and a storage assembly. The rotating bracket can be rotated with respect to the frame. The storage assembly can receive a container with a living body specimen and be rotated with respect to the rotating bracket. A center of gravity of the storage assembly is lower than a pivoting point where the rotating bracket is mounted on the frame and a pivoting point where the storage assembly is mounted on the rotating bracket. With such structure, even when the living body specimen transport device is vibrated and shaken during transporting and then the frame of the living body specimen transport device is tilted or turned over, the rotating bracket and the storage assembly can rotate to be vertical by themselves, which keeps the living body specimen being soaked in the preservation solution.Type: GrantFiled: September 17, 2020Date of Patent: September 5, 2023Assignee: DRSIGNAL BIOTECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.Inventors: Hsin-Wu Mi, Ming-Cheng Lee, Jen-Sheng Hsu

Patent number: 11142733Abstract: A culture flask has a flask body. The flask body has two translucent planes, one opening end, one recess end and at least one collecting recess. Both translucent planes are located on the opposite ends of the flask body. A collecting recess is formed on the inner surface of the recess end, while the cross sectional area of the recess end gradually decreases toward the bottom of the collecting recess. By forming a collecting recess with decreased cross sectional area, culture cells can be collected inside the bottom after centrifugation, and therefore the user no longer has to transfer the culture cells and culture medium to a centrifuge tube when replacing culture medium. Consumption of suction tube and centrifuge tube can be avoided, the time to replace the culture medium is reduced, and also the risk of contamination when replacing the culture medium is reduced.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2019Date of Patent: October 12, 2021Assignee: SCL BIOTECH LTD.Inventors: Hsin-Wu Mi, Ming-Cheng Lee
