description | The thermal cycling system is the key component of the real-time fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (PCR) instrument, which determines the nucleic acid detection efficiency and result accuracy. Aiming at the problems that the thermal cycle of the traditional PCR detection system takes a long time and the temperature control is complicated, a real-time fluorescent PCR thermal cycle system with partition temperature control is designed, including the hardware circuit and mechanical structure of the thermal cycle system. The rapid thermal cycling is achieved by switching the test solution between different constant temperature zones, and the temperature is controlled using an incremental proportional integral derivative (PID) algorithm, with a control precision of ±0.1 ℃. Using Fluent software to establish heat transfer model, the thermal delay phenomenon of the test solution was analyzed to predict the temperature variation pattern of the test solution. A prototype is built for testing and verification, and the heating and cooling rates of the test liquid are 3.8 ℃/s and 4.4 ℃/s. It is verified that the proposed PCR thermal cycling system can effectively improve the detection efficiency. |
