    The invention relates to a method for Befuilung of nozzles of a dispensing system of a test system, and a test system comprising a Dispensiersystem, a microfluidic device and at least one photosensitive sensor with a plurality of photodetectors.
    Many in-vitro diagnostic point-of-care test systems require the manual introduction of various solutions into a sample vessel. Thus, for example, WO 2012/080339 A1 shows a measuring device in which three different reagents must be added dropwise manually and sequentially in the 10 pf mass range in the course of the test procedure, Nachteil0 & Μ FfdttMilU # - mn disadvantage, because the
    Hands-on-time while working the test is very long and binds worker. In addition, manual dripping, due to its low robustness and reproducibility, carries a certain risk of generating faeces results. Furthermore, WO 2012/080339 A1 also describes a dispensing device for reagents, this being a blister
    Automatic dispensers solve the problems of manual reagent addition. They allow a rapid and accurate application of different volumes in a sample vessel. For in vitro diagnostics systems are often used, which enable a contact-free and high-precision dispensing of volumes in the micro to nanoilter range.
    However, conventional dispensing systems for multiple reagents use expensive and complicated components that are unsuitable for point-of-care systems. 2/39 N2Q13Ä331Q0 2
    In conventional automatic dispensing systems with only one nozzle with one outlet opening and several valves (also multichannel) for the passage of the required reagent Totvoiumina stick in the Fiüssigkeitspfad in which the reagents mix, here after each reagent must be completely rinsed and the rinsing liquid in a separate container However, disposing of a separate liquid circuit for rinsing the nozzles is disadvantageous in a point-of-care system, since the liquids to be dispensed may not come into contact before being dispensed, otherwise biochemical reactions may take place in the fluidic system instead of in the measuring chamber It is especially important to ensure that there is no air in the fluid pathway prior to dispensing that could affect the dispensed amount of reagent.
    It is therefore an object of the present invention to ensure that the culture path is filled with reagent completely up to the outlet opening before the start of the actual measuring process.
    The object of the invention is in each case independent by a method for filling nozzles of a dispensing system of a test system comprising a dispensing system and a microfluidic device, wherein the microfluidic device has at least one sample application opening and a microfluidic channel in which a measuring area is arranged, and the sample application port is connected to the microfluidic channel, and - the dispensing system comprises at least one container with at least one reservoir with a solution, wherein the container is connected via a Fiuidleitung with at least one micropump, and then at least one nozzle is arranged, for applying of the solution to the sample application port of the microfluidic device comprising at least steps 3/39
    N2Q13®aiOD 3 - Transport of the solution from the container via the nozzle of the dispensing system to the sample application opening of the microflindic device by means of micropump, - Further transport of the solution into the measuring range of the microfluidic channel of the microfluidic device, - Measurement of a light signal in the measuring range of the microfluidic device with at least one photosensitive Sensor with a plurality of photo-detectors, and - switching off the micropump upon detection and / or alteration of the light signal and a test system comprising at least one dispensing system, a microfluidic device and at least one photosensitive sensor with a plurality of photodetectors - the microfluidic device a sample application port and a microfluidic channel in which a measurement region is arranged, and the sample application port is connected to the microfluidic channel, and the microfluidic device in a receiving device the test system is arranged detachably over the photodetectors of the photosensitive sensor, and the dispensing system comprises at least one container with at least one reservoir with a solution, wherein the container is connected to at least one micropump via a fluidic device, and then at least one nozzle is arranged, which is for applying the solution into the sample application opening of the microfluidic device, dissolved.
    Advantageously, it turns out that it can be sure that there is a solution in the nozzle and thus the correct volume of the solution for subsequent process steps can be dispensed from this nozzle without having to fill, rinse, wash, etc. the nozzle again. In a further development, the dispensing system comprises at least two containers with solutions, wherein in the harvested container a first solution, in particular chemi-luminescence solution, and in the second container another solution, preferably 4/39 Ν2013Λ33100
    Enzyme solution is contained, and the containers or a Fluidieitung are connected to at least one micropump, and then at least two nozzles are arranged, wherein a first nozzle for applying the first solution, in particular Ghemilumineszenzlösung, and the second nozzle for applying the further solution, preferably Enzyme solution into the sample application port of the microfluidic device, comprising at least the steps of: - transporting the first solution, in particular chemiluminescent solution, and the further solution, in particular enzyme solution, from the respective container via the respective nozzle of the dispensing system to the sample leaching port of the microfluidic device by means of the at least one Micropump, - Measurement of a light signal, in particular Chemilumineszenzsignais, by reaction of the first solution, in particular Chemilumineszenzläsyng, and the further solution, in particular Enzymiösung, in the measuring range of the microfluidic Vorrich tion with at least one photosensitive sensor having a plurality of photodetectors, and - Abschaiten the at least one micropump on detection of Lichisig-nais, in particular Chemilumineszenzsignais,
    If an immune signal can be detected in the microfluidic channel, then the first solution, in particular chemiluminescent solution, and the further solution, preferably enzyme solution, react with one another, as soon as the signal is formed by reaction of the two reagents with one another. Since a meeting and thus a reaction of the two solutions only after delivery from the respective nozzles is possible, so both the first solution, in particular Chemilymines zenziösung, and the other solution, preferably enzyme solution, have passed the nozzles. The detection of the light signal, which is formed from the sehemic or biochemical reaction of the two reagents, ensures that both the first solution, in particular the chemiluminescence solution, and the Wettere solution, preferably enzyme solution, are incorporated into the Measuring range of the microfluidic channel are present and therefore also in the nozzles of the dispensing system, which transport the liquids to the microfuge device via the Frobenauferingöflbung, this proves of 5/39 N2013 / 03100 5
    Advantage that it can be ensured that both the nozzle for the application of the first solution, in particular Chernilumineszenziösung, as well as the nozzle for the further solution, preferably enzyme solution, are filled to the Äuslassende with the respective liquid, and thus the dispensing the right one Volume dispensed over the dispensing time. To perform various analyzes with the test system, it is important to ensure that the liquid meniscus is in the dispensing position at the end of the injectors prior to measurement. Would the meniscus of the first solution, in particular Ghemilumineszenziösung, or the other solution, preferably enzyme solution, are further back in the liquid nozzle of the nozzle, the corresponding amount of the respective solution in the measurement process is missing and it comes to false scores in the analysis with the test system due to low It is also advantageous that a cost-effective system with high precision is available for this purpose. Also known from the prior art disadvantage of using an additional container for the rinse solution of the Fiuidikpfades deleted in the inventive method and the test system according to the invention. To determine the filling of the nozzles to the end of the outlet opening no additional sensors are needed, which would prevent a compact design of a point-of-care system.
    According to a further development, it is provided that a) the first solution, in particular a chemi-quintuplet solution, is transported via the first nozzle to the sample application opening of the microfluidic device by means of the at least one micropump and subsequently sucked into the measuring area of the microfluidic device (FIG the immune signal in the measuring range of the microfluidic device with at least one photosensitive sensor with a plurality of photodetectors takes place, (e) the micropump is switched off when the light signal is changed, in particular when increased by the optofluldic lens effect, (d) the further solution, in particular enzyme solution, is transported via the additional nozzle to the Rrobenaufbringöffnung the microfluidic device by means of Mikropum- 6/39 N2013 / 03100 pe and is subsequently sucked into the measuring range of the microfluidic device, (e) the Lichtsigna !, In particular Chemiiumineszenzsignals in Messbere I is the microfluidic device is detected with the photosensitive sensor with a plurality of photodetectors, (f) the micropump on detection of the light signal, in particular Chemilumä-Neszenzsignais abgeschaitet.
    A sequential application of the solutions has the advantage that the presence of the first solution, in particular Chemiiiumzenzzenzlösung, regardless of the other solution, preferably enzyme solution, can be controlled »Thus, in the absence of Lichtsigna!, In particular chemiluminescent signal, the source of error can be found quickly, whether either no or too little first solution, in particular chemiluminescent solution, or no or too little sterile solution, preferably enzyme solution, via which nozzle was dispensed into the sample application opening.
    As soon as the first solution is transported into the microfluidic channel, the light signal is changed, in particular increased, by an optofluidic floating effect, whereby the meniscus measurement of the first solution is made possible.
    According to a further development further steps are carried out, wherein (g) an additional solution, in particular washing solution, is transported via a further nozzle to the sample application opening of the microfluidic device by means of a micropump and subsequently sucked into the measuring region of the microfluidic device, (h) the displacement of the previously measured light signal, in particular calibration signal, is measured in the measuring range of the microfluidic device with at least one photosensitive sensor with a plurality of photodetectors, the micropump being switched off upon detection of the signal transduction. 7/39 N2813 / Ö31Ö0
    As a result, it is also possible to ensure that the nozzle with the additional solution, in particular washing solution, can be safely secured before dispensing the additional solution during the actual analysis in the test system.
    Contact of the solutions, in particular of the enzyme solution, with air can lead to clogging of the nozzle opening. However, the nozzle orifices of the nozzles may also dry out, thereby retracting the fluid meniscus therein and giving false sample voices in the subsequent analysis. Therefore, the nozzle openings of the nozzles are reliably closed after the micropump has been switched off by at least one sealing device, in particular airtight.
    The combination of the micropump with the nozzle has the advantage of producing a jet of nanorod drops of the respective liquid, thereby enabling targeted and non-contact delivery of the particular solution from the nozzle orifice to the sample application port of the microfluidic device. The targeted delivery is required to ensure that the entire volume of each solution is actually applied to the sample application port of the microfluidic device to obtain a correct assay result. The micropump dispenses a few microliters into the sample application port of the microfluidic device at ± 1 μ! Accuracy achieved.
    After sealing the nozzles of the disperser system, a biological sample is placed in the sample leaching port and transported into the microfluidic channel, where particles of the biological sample react via specific binding sites with molecules located in test sections of the measurement region and by adding the solutions from the dispensing system a chemical or biochemical reaction takes place with release of light, and a sweet sign! is formed, which is detected by the photosensitive sensor with a plurality of photodetectors, whereby a rapid evaluation of the biological sample can be done, because several samples can be measured sequentially without having to rinse in between. 8/39 N2013 / 03100
    Furthermore, in a further development, the dispensing system may comprise at least two containers with solutions, wherein in the first container a first solution, in particular Chemiiumineszenziösung, and in the second container another solution, preferably enzyme solution, is included, and the containers connected via a Fiuidieitung with at least one micropump and then at least two nozzles are arranged, wherein a first nozzle for applying the first solution, in particular Chemiiumineszenziösung, and the second nozzle for applying the further solution, preferably enzyme solution, in the sample application opening of the microfluidic device, whereby a rapid priming the test system is possible. In a development, it is provided that the containers have an interface with a port for connection to a standard Luer cone of the fluid line in order to produce a separable connection of the containers via the fluid line to the pump. As a result, airtight docking of the containers can be achieved. Another advantage is that empty containers, as soon as a solution therein is aufgebraueht, can be easily exchanged for filled containers without introducing air into the Fluidikpfad the Dispensiersystems.
    If the containers which form a reservoir for the respective solution are designed as sefbst köiiabierende bag, also an introduction of air bubbles in the Dispensiemystem, in particular in the nozzles avoided. Thus, a venting of the container is obsolete.
    According to a further development, at least one reflux valve, in particular with a bias, is arranged in the fluid line between the container and the micro-pump, the back-up valve! By biasing a possibly existing upper pressure in the reservoir of the container is cushioned and thereby prevents any dripping of liquid from the outlet opening of the nozzle into the Probenaufbringöffnung the microfluidic device. 9/39 N2Ö13Ä331Ö0
    Furthermore, it is provided that at least one sealing device is arranged in the region of an outlet opening of the nozzles, whereby a closure of the outlet opening of the nozzles is possible and thus both a retraction of the liquid meniscus and a clogging of the outlet opening of the nozzles can be avoided. In particular, between the measurements, the nozzles can be hermetically sealed and thus blockages in the nozzles can be prevented.
    The dispensing system comprises at least two dispensing units, wherein in the harvested dispensing unit a container with a first solution, in particular chemiluminescent solution, is arranged, which is connected via a trunk line with at least one micropump and then a nozzle, and in the second dispensing unit a container with another Solution, in particular Enzymiösung, is arranged, which is also connected via a Fiuidleitung with at least one Mfkrapumpe and then a nozzle and optionally in the third dispensing a container with an additional solution, in particular Waschiösung disposed, which also überu Fiuidleitung with at least one micropump and then a nozzle is connected. The parallel arrangement of at least two dispensing units proves to be advantageous, thus weii completely separate Fiuidikpfade voriiegen in Dispensiersystem that can come into contact with each other only at the transition to the microfluidic device and thus a premature reaction or contamination of a solution with in each dispenser can on the container a Interface with a port for connection to a standard Luer cone and in the Fiuidleitung between container and micropump at least one Rückfiussventii, in particular with bias, be arranged, whereby on the one hand a simple change of containers from the rest of the test system, in particular Dispensiersystem is possible and on the other hand, an overpressure of the container can be intercepted to prevent dripping onto the Probenaufbringöffnung the mikoffoffidschen device and also a reflux of the solution is prevented in the container.
    The nozzles of adjacent dispensing units are preferably arranged to enter the same sample application port of the microfluidic device 10 / 39N2013 / 03100 10
    Advantageously, it proves to be obsolete that additional devices or measures directing the liquid jet to the sample application port are obsolete.
    It is advantageous to place an outlet end of a nozzle at a distance of 0.1 mm to 80 mm from the sample application opening of the microfluidic device steeply, thereby overcoming a distance between the dispensing device and the microfluidic device, which causes a contactless introduction of the respective solution into the sample application opening This makes it possible to prevent the solutions of different dispenser units or nozzles from contaminating one another. For a better understanding of the invention, this will be explained in more detail with reference to the following figures.

Also, the photosensitive sensor 4 with the plurality of photodetectors 5 may be included in the load. A density element seals the microfluidic device 3 and the photosensitive sensor 4 impervious to the environment. The density element can be formed for example by a Nüt-Feder Vefbinduhg. The density element can, however, also be formed by an elastically deformable element, for example a foam material or a rubber seal, whereby upon closure of the loading element due to a compression of the sealing element caused thereby a light-tight closure of the space of the measuring device with respect to the environment is given to a biological sample after priming to bring the Probenaufbringöffnung 13 of the microfluidic device 3, the loading element is extended again.
    Thus, the mechanical device 3 can be inserted into the receiving device 16 and subsequently the loading element can be closed without the microfluidics already having any sample chemistry, thereby ensuring that no chemical reaction is triggered in the test sections of the measuring region. Only then, with the loading element closed and secure production of a leak-tight closure of the microfluidic device 3, priming and the measurements required for this are carried out. The priming is followed by the application of the biological sample, for which purpose the loading element is initially opened and subsequently for the at least one required measurement with the photosensitive sensor 4 with a plurality of photodetectors 5, the loading element is again closed in a light-tight manner. in the housing can also be a lighting device, for. As LEDs, be present. Possible further embodiments of the receiving device 16, the illumination device, and the embodiment of the measuring arrangement with the foosensitive sensor 4 mil of the plurality of photodetectors 5 are described in WO 2012/080339 and belong to the disclosure of independent invention .
    In order to minimize possible sources of error due to manual activities and personal costs, and thus the total costs for an analysis, the procedure which is carried out with the test system should be automated as far as possible. After manually adding the sample material, ie the biological sample to be analyzed, the solutions required for the analule are introduced into the sample application opening 13 of the microfluidic device 3. However, this is problematic because, on the one hand, the volumes to be dispensed are to be retained as accurately as possible or the order of the Delivery of those solutions to be used in the analysis is precisely predefined.
    With the method according to the invention, the analysis is automated to the extent that only fleh the sample to be analyzed must be applied manually.
    With the method according to the invention for the priming of the test probe 1, changes in the light signal and / or the light emission of chemical or biochemical reactions are measured, and their results are used as parameters for the control for filling the dispensing system 2
    The microfluidic device 3 required for the respective analysis is inserted into the test system 1, in particular onto the receiving device 16 for this purpose. Then the Dispensiersystem 2 must be prepared accordingly to deliver the reagents required for the analysis with the correct volume, luftbiasen-frel and in the correct order. For this purpose, the preparation or priming can be started via a control unit. Alternatively, as soon as it is detected by the Tesla system 1 that a microfluidic device 3 is arranged in the test system 1 and is also closed in a light-tight manner, the preparation can also be started automatically. In the simplest embodiment, a solution is viewed from the container 6 via the nozzle 11 of the Dispensiersptems 2 to Probenaufbringöffnung 13 mtkrofiuidi- see the device 3 by means of micropump 10 and then into the measuring range of the microfluidic channel 14 of the microfluidic device transported further, in the measuring range of the microfluidic device 3 is a measurement of a light signal with at least one fetosensitiven sensor 4 with a plurality of Fotödetektoren 5, wherein changes in the Lichtsigna! and / or the fastness of chemical or biochemical reactions are measured. As soon as a light signal or a change in the light signal is detected, the micropump 10 is switched off. For the preparation or the priming of the test system by starting the micropump 10 from the first container 6, a first solution with which by a chemical or biochemical reaction with another solution a Liehtemission is possible, via the Fluidikpfad, the at least one hose , a micropump 10 and a nozzle 11, is transported to the sample application port 13 of the microfluidic device 3. Simultaneously or subsequently, the further solution, preferably enzyme solution, from the second container 6 is also transported to the sample application opening 13 via a further fluid path. There it comes to the reaction of the first solution, in particular Che-miluminescence, with the further solution, preferably Enzymiosung, and a Lichtsigna !, In particular Chemiiumineszenzsignal is generated, which, as soon as the liquid is in the measuring range of the microfluidic channel 14, can be detected , Thus, it is ensured that both the first solution, in particular chemiluminescent solution, and the further solution, preferably enzyme solution, are located in the nozzles 11 of the dispensing system 2 and thus filled and ready for subsequent analysis. In an alternative embodiment, for the preparation or priming of the test system 1 from the first bag 7, the first solution, in particular chemiluminescent solution, is transported via the fluid line 12 via the reflux valve 9 through the micropump 10 to the first nozzle 11 and from there in the form of Nanoiitertropfen in the Probenaufbringöffnung 13 of the microfluidic device 3 is discharged from there by the capillary action over the measuring range to the reservoir 15 to be transported. For this purpose, first the micropump 10 21/39 N2013 / Ö3100 21 is started and a measurement is carried out in the measuring range of the microfluidic channel 14, as soon as the measurement results in a change of the signal or a predefined limit value is exceeded, which already occurs in the presence of a liquid meniscus , a solution is present in the microfluidic channel 14 and the micropump 10 is stopped because the first solution, in particular chem-luminescent solution, is located in the outlet opening of the first nozzle 11. For measuring the change in the light signal, a light source, in particular LEDs, can be used in the test system 1 be arranged. Preferably, the first solution is transparent. Due to the shape of the microfluidic channel 14 and the index of refraction of the liquid, the light signal emitted by a light source when transparent liquid is in the microfluidic channel 14 is amplified by the optofluidic lens effect on the photodetector 5. Due to the inventionsgemiße training of the test system 1, the signal strength by the lens effect, triggered by the flow of the first solution in the microfluidic Kana! 14 increased. This signal enhancement is easily recognizable and therefore easily detectable as shown in FIG. 2, where I (AU) is the change in the intensity of the light signal.
    The second micropump 10 then starts to transport the further solution, preferably enzyme solution, from the second bag 7 via the fluidizing device 12, the reflux valve 9 and the micropump 10 to the second nozzle 11 and from there in the form of nanoliter drops into the sample application opening 13 of the microfluidic device To submit device 2. By capillary action, the solution is also drawn into the measuring range of the microfluidic device 3. Since already the first solution, in particular Chemiiumineszenziösung, there is the chemical or biochemical reaction of the two solutions under Liehtemission and there is a light signal, in particular ChemilumineSenzenzsignal that tm measuring range is measured. As soon as the light signal is detected, the micropump 10 is stopped because the further solution, preferably enzyme solution, is up to the outlet opening of the second nozzle 11. In a preferred embodiment, the microfluidic channel is now! 14 still rinsed, on the one hand to avoid a premature reaction of the sample to be analyzed, which is applied later, and on the other hand to prepare the douses 11 with the washing solution accordingly. For this purpose, a third micropump 10 is started and the additional solution, in particular washing solution, from a third booty! 7 transported with Schnittsteiie 8 for Fluidieitung 12 via the Rückflussventü 9 and the micropump 10 to the third nozzle 11 and discharged from there in the form of nanoliter drops on the Probenaufbringöffnung 13 of the microfluidic device 3. By the addition of the additional solution, in particular washing solution, an additional Fiüssigkeitsvoiumen comes in the mikrqfluiöi-channel 14 and the light signal, in particular Chemiiumineszenzsignai is moved. As soon as this light signal shift, in particular chemiluminescent signal shift, is detected, the third micropump 10 is abated, because now the additional solution, in particular washing solution, is also up to the end of the third nozzle 11
    Fig. 3 shows the typical signal distribution of a gamma-luminescent signal in the measuring region of the microfluidic channel 14 after reaction of the chemiluminescent solution with the enzyme solution, where [Aj of the y-axis is photocurrent.
    FIG. 4 shows the displacement of the chemiluminescence signal after the addition of the washing solution.
    At the latest after filling the third nozzle 11 to the end of the outlet opening, the nozzles 11 can be closed by means of a sealing device 18. Of course, the nozzles 11 can be closed together or individually even after filling the respective nozzle 11, whereby blockages due to drying of the nozzles 11 are prevented ,
    The nozzles 11 are now prepared for the subsequent analysis and volumes with an accuracy of + 1 μί can be applied to the microfluidic device 3.
    Wild the test system 1, in particular the Dispensiersptem 2, for the application of 10 pi bisl OO μ! Sölten the bags 7 in the reservoir have a capacity for about 50 tests, ie about 0.5 ml to 5 ml. 23/39 N2013 / 03100 23
    In carrying out the subsequent analysis, the sample to be analyzed is first applied to the microfluidic device 3, whereby the sample can be pipetted directly into the sample application opening 13 or via a feed device in the housing. Subsequently, the biological sample is transported into the microfluid channel 14, where target molecules of the biological sample react via specific binding sites with molecules immobilized in test sections of the measurement area. Then the further solution, preferably enzyme solution, is automatically added and thus drawn into the microfluidic channel 14. By adding the additional solution, in particular washing solution, the excess further solution, in particular enzyme solution, is removed in order to avoid unspecific signals. Finally, the first solution, in particular Chernilumineszenziösung, automatically delivered to the microfluidic device 3, which generates in response to the enzymes specifically bound in the test sections of the enzyme solution, a light signal, in particular Chemtfumines-zenzsignai, of the photosensitive sensor 4 with a plurality is measured by photodetectors i and can be determined by allocation to the test section in the measuring range, which analyte is contained in the sample. As stated above, instead of the enzyme solution and the chemiluminescent solution, other solutions which give each other a color change can also be used.
    The measurement of the real signal, in particular chemiluminescence signal, preferably takes place via the photosensitive sensor 4 arranged in the test system 1 with a plurality of photodetectors 5 and, in an alternative embodiment, can also take place via an electronic sensor.
    When carrying out the sample analysis, it is necessary to document the measurement result. Therefore, at the microfluidic device 3 an identity resp. Identifikationsmerkmai be arranged, and thus a direct assignment of the issued waveform of the individual test sections in a Messproto-koil can be adopted. Furthermore, different microfluidic devices 3 with different test sections can be used, so that in the identification feature, for example, an identifier or configuration data of the 24/39 N2013 / 03100
    Test sections can be deposited. The Merkmai is preferably triggered by a contactless acting on the test system 1 readout device and can be formed, for example, by a 1D «or 2D ~ code, but it is also an education as an RFID feature possible. This read-out device can, for example, be formed by an optical 1D or 2D detection sensor or an RFID transmission and reception unit.
