Embodiment 1

[0039] Embodiment 1: Material selection and fabrication of Raman measurement and laser microdissection thin film

[0040] Raman measurement and laser microdissection of thin films including cut layer and Raman coating. Among them, the cutting layer ( figure 1 a) Using laser-sensitive polymer materials, including but not limited to PC (polycarbonate), EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer), PET (polyethylene terephthalate), PEN (polyethylene naphthalate) glycol esters); Raman coatings are made of opaque metallic materials, including but not limited to aluminum, silver, gold. The Raman coating is formed on the surface of the cutting layer by deposition methods such as evaporation and sputtering ( figure 1 b), the thickness of the Raman coating is made to be 10-100nm. The Raman coating itself has no Raman background, and can cover the Raman background of the cutting layer (such as figure 1 shown in c).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of single cell analysis and sorting, in particular to an integrated sorting device for realizing the coupling of single cell Raman measurement and laser microdissection. Background technique [0002] From heterogeneous cell populations or heterogeneous sample mixtures, such as tissue samples, blood, semen samples, environmental sampling microbial samples, it is of great research significance to characterize and isolate a specific small number of cells or even single cells. The laser capture microdissection technology developed for this purpose is just such a sample preparation technology. The principle is to use laser energy to finely cut samples and supporting substrates under microscopic conditions, thereby separating pure samples or even single cells from mixed samples or heterogeneous samples, so as to be used in downstream microgenomics applications (such as next-generation sequencing). , Sanger sequen...
