Novel microfluidic technologies for portable diagnostics systems
Novel microfluidic technologies being developed for portable diagnostic systems have potential for use in TB serodiagnosis or as platforms for cell and biomolecular assays. Using microfluidics, with its miniaturized channels and reservoirs for portable devices, offers many advantages, including: high surface-to-volume ratio; a low Reynolds number; increased speed of reaction; reduced cost of re...
متن کاملPrecision medicine, technologies, and molecular diagnostics
Introduction: Genetics, cellular and molecular medicines are cutting-edge sciences and technologies that play an important role in improving human health and quality of life. In addition, medical and biological sciences have clearly shown that the onset of diseases differs from person to person due to their different genetic profiles and variations in molecular basis. Therefore, it is feasible ...
متن کاملMicrofluidic Elisa for Ocular Diagnostics
Uveitis and primary intraocular lymphoma (PIOL) are diseases associated with the invasion of lymphocytes into various regions of the eye, accompanied by expression of inflammatory cytokines. While these diseases are very different in terms of survivability and treatment options they have similar symptoms that make accurate diagnosis challenging. Furthermore, the diagnostic yield with state-of-t...

متن کاملOpportunities and challenges for the application of microfluidic technologies in point-of-care veterinary diagnostics.
There is a growing need for low-cost, rapid and reliable diagnostic results in veterinary medicine. Point-of-care (POC) tests have tremendous advantages over existing laboratory-based tests, due to their intrinsic low-cost and rapidity. A considerable number of POC tests are presently available, mostly in dipstick or lateral flow formats, allowing cost-effective and decentralised diagnosis of a...
