Patent number: 11674173Abstract: An operation method of a multiplex slide plate device is provided. First, the multiplex slide plate device is assembled, including a slide plate, a sacrificial layer and a housing. The slide plate has reaction vessels, and the sacrificial layer has a microfluidic channel composed of an injection channel, a main channel and a distal channel. A sample solution is injected to the injection channel, such that the sample solution flows from the injection channel through the main channel to the distal channel, wherein the sample solution loads into the reaction vessels. Afterwards, an oil is injected to the injection channel, such that the oil flows from the injection channel through the main channel to the distal channel, wherein the oil removes the sample solution not loaded into the reaction vessels. Next, the sacrificial layer is heated to melt, and the melted sacrificial layer is mixed with the oil.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2021Date of Patent: June 13, 2023Assignee: Quark Biosciences Taiwan, Inc.Inventors: Chung-Fan Chiou, Cheng-Wey Wei, Yu Chang, Ming-Chuan Hsu

Patent number: 11135592Abstract: A multiplex slide plate device is provided, including a slide plate, a sacrificial layer, and a housing. The slide plate has reaction vessels arranged in an array. The sacrificial layer has a microfluidic channel, which has an injection channel, a main channel, and a distal channel connected to each other. The housing is used to accommodate the slide plate and the sacrificial layer, and is composed of a cover and a tray, and the cover has an injection hole, an exhaust hole, and a storage tank. A sample solution and an oil are injected from the injection hole into the injection channel, wherein the sample solution is pushed by the oil. The sample solution loads into each of the reaction vessels while flowing through the main channel. Excess waste liquid flows from the exhaust hole into the storage tank, and is covered by the oil and cannot reflow.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2018Date of Patent: October 5, 2021Assignee: Quark Biosciences Taiwan, Inc.Inventors: Cheng-Wey Wei, Chia-Hao Chang
