The invention discloses an automatic
nucleic acid extracting device applicable to space. The device comprises a
translation table, a stepping motor, a limiting switch, an
injector set, a
silicon rubber tube, a pressing
pipe valve, electromagnets and a
control circuit. The
injector set is formed by fixedly connecting five 1 ml injectors for storing reagents needed by
nucleic acid extraction; the injectors are fixed to the
translation table, the
translation table is driven by the stepping motor and can
push and pull pistons of the injectors; the limiting switch is located at the end of the
stroke of the pistons of the injectors and used for feeding back the position of the motor; the injectors are connected together through the
silicon rubber tube, and the pressing
pipe valve is used for controlling on-off of the
silicon rubber tube; the two electromagnets are located at the two sides of the
main injector for generating an oscillation
magnetic field. The full-automatic extracting processfrom samples to purified
nucleic acid inside a liquid
closed system is achieved, no risk of
aerosol contaminations is caused, the device can be used for automatically extracting nucleic acid of biological samples under the micro-gravity environment, and integration with a follow-up nucleic acid
processing module is facilitated.
