Lab on a stick: multi-analyte cellular assays in a microfluidic dipstick.
A new microfluidic concept for multi-analyte testing in a dipstick format is presented, termed "Lab-on-a-Stick", that combines the simplicity of dipstick tests with the high performance of microfluidic devices. Lab-on-a-stick tests are ideally suited to analysis of particulate samples such as mammalian or bacterial cells, and capable of performing multiple different parallel microfluidic assays...
متن کاملInkjet-printed paper-based SERS dipsticks and swabs for trace chemical detection.
We demonstrate a paper-based surface swab and lateral-flow dipstick that includes an inkjet-printed surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) substrate for analyte detection. Due to capillary-action wicking of cellulose, the paper dipstick enables extremely simple and pump-free loading of liquid samples into the detection device, and in addition provides inherent analyte concentration within t...
متن کاملEditorial: Nanotechnological Advances in Biosensors
A biosensor is a physicochemical or hybrid physical-chemical-biological device that detects a biological molecule, organism, or process. Because of the nature of their targets, biosensors need to be faster, smaller, more sensitive, and more specific than nearly all of their physicochemical counterparts or the traditional methods that they are designed to replace. Speed is of the essence in medi...
متن کاملMicrofluidic multiplexed multi-analyte immunosensing platform
In this work we present an electrochemical microfluidic platform for the detection of multiple analytes. The developed system allows the simultaneous readout of up to four different enzyme-linked assays even in various formats. The applicability was shown with the antibiotic detection of tetracycline in different concentrations by means of a DNA-based assay on a single chip. With a sample-to-re...
متن کاملSpatially resolved electrochemical sensing of chemical gradients 3
Chemical gradients drive a diverse set of biological processes ranging from nerve transduction to ovulation. At present, the most common method for quantifying chemical gradients is microscopy. Here, a new concept for probing spatial and temporal chemical gradients is reported that uses a multi-layer microfluidic device to measure analyte concentration as a function of lateral position in a mic...
